A member of MoveOn.org bites off the finger off a conservative protester and MoveOn responds by calling the incident “regrettable.” The group’s spokesman also says that “MoveOn condemns violence in all forms.” Which is no doubt true, but also a deeply revealing statement from a group that was — from the first moments after 9/11 — opposed even military strikes against al Qaeda and the Taliban. These people would bite the fingers off conservatives who oppose the president’s health care plans, but they would condemn the U.S. military for killing terrorists if it wasn’t political suicide to do so.
