"Pariser, Ingraham discuss ad flap" from the Today Show was a discussion with talk show host Laura Ingraham and MoveOn.org Eli Pariser over the organization's "Petraeus Betray Us" ad that was condemned by the Cornyn amendment voted on in the Senate on Thursday.
Ingraham correctly pointed out that MoveOn.org's tactic has backfired and created more sympathy for General Petraeus. While Pariser kept mentioning Iraq veterans that belonged to his group, he didn't specify their names - and it would seem that they would be more effective spokespersons about why they feel the war is wrong than to attack the general on the ground. The fact that they brought forth no one for their side belied the many members they say they have in the group - and clearly this was not a wise move on MoveOn.org's part.
