Hint, it does not stand for liberal, socialist, moderate or communist. Archie, it stands for conservative and it only stands to reason that they will invite people that are actually conservative to the conference. But the Republican tent is much broader than just conservatives which is why people like Christie and other moderate Republicans had prominent speaking roles at the convention.

I mean really, how many pro-life, pro-business, strong national defense Democrats have been invited to speak at a moveon.org conference? How many pro-life Democrats have spoken at the Democrat convention? This is the way it works for movement-oriented conferences. It is an opportunity for like minded people to gather and exchange ideas and information. There are lots of other forums for exchanging opposing ideas.

I'm not sure why that bothers you so much. I would never lament moveon.org leaving a conservative Democrat out of their meetings....I would expect it and think it was reasonable. Thats of course assuming you could actually find one.......which these days is pretty doubtful.
