Fine move.
MoveOn should already have pointed their members to the Winter
Soldier IVAW event, but as Carl likes to emphasize, MoveOn is more
interested in getting the Democrats elected next November. This may
help the antiwar effort, but it's not sure, perhaps not even
probable. One seeks hope in suspect places. Uncertainty entertains
hope. --mkb
