MoveOn Demonstrates the Art of Playing It Both Ways

With the skill and agility of a French Arms Dealer, MoveOn.org is getting to have their cake and eat it too as they protest McLellan profiting from his book on the Bush Administration. In a press release, the website states "McClellan shouldn't profit off the role he played in our nation's largest foreign policy blunder." For his efforts, McClellan was advanced 30 pieces of silver and is expected to reap much more in the coming months.
There has been quite a political backlash against McClellan for his tell-all book. Democrats have benefited from his newfound revelations, but are trying to distance themselves from the author. Moveon has set the standard in the following paragraph:
"After spending years defending the Bush administration and perpetuating the lies that led our country into war, Scott McClellan is poised to make bank — his tell-all book is a bestseller and he may make hundreds of thousands or millions,” MoveOn says. "Meanwhile, our troops are still dying in Iraq.”
Wow. They get a free shot at Bush while taking the 'high road' condemning McClellan. Bra-VO move on. Nicely played. McClellan meanwhile is looking for some new friends.
