DARFUR UPDATE: I don’t much like MoveOn.org — they were started in response to the Clinton scandals, and given their name and origins it’s sort of funny that they’re still around. . . . Anyway, though, they deserve credit for mobilizing their members on the Darfur genocide
UPDATE: Tucker Goodrich emails:
I’d like to think they’e concerned.
I’m also willing to bet money that if Bush sent in the Marines, unilaterally, they’d oppose it.
So what’s their concern really worth?
I think Kofi listens to them.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Karl Bade emails: “I’m always willing to credit a group doing the right thing, but isn’t MoveOn due for a name change? After all, they’ve been unable to move on from anything since November 2000.”
It’s a branding thing.
