“This is a disaster. We fought our hearts out to avert this reality. But now it’s here,” MoveOn.org<\/a> staff wrote to members on Wednesday. “The new president-elect and many of his most prominent supporters have targeted, demeaned, and threatened millions of us—and millions of our friends, family, and loved ones. Both chambers of Congress remain in Republican hands. We are entering an era of profound and unprecedented challenge, a time of danger for our communities and our country. In this moment, we have to take care of ourselves, our families, and our friends—especially those of us who are on the front lines facing hate, including Latinos, women, immigrants, refugees, Black people, Muslims, LGBT Americans, and so many others. And we need to make it clear that we will continue to stand together.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
WHAT?!?!!?<\/p>\n
Isn’t this the same organization that fairly shouted down any and all opposition by disenfranchised voters when President Obama was elected?<\/p>\n
Weren’t they the ones who said it’s a done deal, shut up, and get over it?<\/p>\n
Didn’t they unfairly label anyone with a dissenting view of President Obama’s policies as racists?<\/p>\n
