Remember when MoveOn.org mattered? Back when a word from the organization would inspire thousands to take to the streets. Looks like those days are gone forever. And in the words of the Simpson’s Nelson Muntz, “Ha-ha.”
The Daily Caller has the sad, sad details:
Democrat Eleanor Holmes Norton, the District of Columbia’s congressional delegate, failed to show up at a MoveOn.org rally on Tuesday afternoon as the left-wing organization attempted to stage a protest at the Social Security Administration headquarters in Washington, D.C. Organizers at the event, who would not provide their names to The Daily Caller upon request, said Holmes Norton was stuck speaking on the House floor. Holmes Norton does not have a vote in the House, only an opportunity to make recommendations.
Holmes Norton wasn’t the only person missing at MoveOn.org’s DC rally. The crowds of people MoveOn.org claims to have as followers didn’t make it out either. Maybe 30 people showed up — and that’s a generous estimate.
The event was part of MoveOn.org’s attempt to “Reclaim the American Dream,” or stop Republicans from balancing the budget. “Republicans in Congress are holding the middle class hostage — proposing a federal budget that would would [sic] cut 700,000 to 1 million jobs from our communities and slash funding to support preschool and college students, pregnant women, unemployed workers, and much more,” the leftwing organization funded by billionaire George Soros says on its website.
MoveOn.org used to fill the streets. Now they’d have trouble filling a phone booth. If they could find a phone booth, that is.

They are spreading themselves too thin, they are demonstrating all over the place like morons. They are also arrogantly thinking they have more people who belief their crap than what it is in reality.
They are all splitting their time between WI and IN. Who has time for this crap in DC, when they already own it?
Man KQ, your fan club is pathetic!
LOL! I know!
In Berkeley it's 'Reclaim the hallucinaton."
Good point, CO2. But remember, when the hallucination wears off, all they have left is the delusion.
I'd say it's more like, reclaim the delusion.
Likely because these clowns have spent all their time bussing all their liberal lemming clowns to Wisconsin, showing the whole of the world what clowns liberals eally are, en toto.
Come on folks, these liberal morons only make up about 18% of the American population....there are only so many clowns to go around for these types of things!
MoveOn's plan to "Reclaim the American Dream" involves the reckless spending of borrowed money; it's a process that guarantees the destruction of the American Dream, and that's probably why George Soros supports MoveOn so generously.
The Lapdog Media will likely report thousands in attendance. Then they can say how well the "thousands" behaved, and look, hardly any trash laying around.
I'm sure the 30 or so MoveOn protesters left more trash than a thousand Tea Partiers would. Funny though. I don't see any protesters of color in the picture. Is MoveON.org racist?
The movement is dead or dying? Why am I not sorry?
Time for Move On to move on.
MoveOn.org... adios, Fish Heads!
Looks like everyone moved on. Nothing more to see here...
