Okay-Was there a MoveOn 9/11 petition?
I looked on the MoveOn sight and didn't see anything. I googled it and only found mention of it but never a link to any actual petition.

Was there one or is that "fact" just being accepted as part of the Rove defense?

Anyone got a link? What did it say?

Eli Pariser, executive director of the MoveOn political action committee, accused Rove of attempting to "change the subject away from their failed policy in Iraq" in advance of Bush's speech next week. He also disputed Rove's characterization of the petition calling for moderation and restraint, saying that the petition was a personal project before he was affiliated with MoveOn and that it was not on the group's Web site at the time of the Afghanistan war.

1. I was active with them at the time, and I remember there was one.
I don't remember what it said. It may have counselled restraint or using a measured response.

Trust the Thugs to turn thoughtfulness into a character flaw.

The Republican National Senatorial Committee web site quotes extensively from it along with providing various links. Of course what this site actually provides us with is the actual attack script that the Republicans are using:

3. Move On seems to have taken it off their website

Whatever was there before, if anything.
