Remember that full-page ad that MoveOn.org took out to condemn General Petraeus (or as they called him, "General Betray Us")?  You may have forgotten, but MoveOn certainly does.  They kept that ad up on their website every since then.

Well, that is, until just the other day when it became clear that Petraeus would be replacing McChrystal.  Then all of a sudden >poof< the page itself, and one describing their rational for the ad, magically disappear from their site.  See, now that Obama has tapped him for a job, he’s not so bad after all.

Remember how the Soviets used to airbrush people out of pictures who had fallen out of favor with the Communist party?  You may have forgotten, but MoveOn certainly does. Inconvenient memory?  Scrub it away.
