MoveOn criticized a Democrat who had opposed the war and pushed for a timetable on withdrawl, then supported the surge.
MoveOn is a left leaning political organization that has *shockingly* supported liberal candidates, and outspent the NRA (a singularly focused lobby).
MoveOn went after Facebook's incredibly invasive and controversial beacon ads, which many groups and users protested as a major invasion of privacy.
Hilary Clinton was upset because the group supported Senator Obama as their candidate, not her. She certainly had no problem with the group when they were fighting the impeachment process.
MoveOn wants George Bush to be censured for the intentional misstatements he made regarding the threat in Iraq that led the country to war under false pretenses.

Ok, so in each case, MoveOn is criticizing a political figure or candidate for something, on various issues, mainly the Iraq war. Now contrast that to FoxNews calling a candidate "Osama", joking about his death, slurring his wife and insinuating they are terrorists. You honestly think they are even comparable political discourse? What was that you were saying about being given credit for intelligence?
