FLASHPOINT for Feb 27, 2007

Tuesday, Feb. 27, 2007 | 7:05 a.m.

MoveOn is not moving on, now claiming 160,000 signatures on a petition demanding Nevada Democrats dump Fox as the broadcast outlet for an August presidential debate. The liberal activist group knows it is tapping into a real anger at the netroots toward Fox News. How do I know? Because when I dared to say this was idiotic and counterproductive, I received e-mails from around the country - and my guess is the overwhelming number of those signatures also are from outside Nevada. One genius suggested I was against the petition because I took a payoff from Karl Rove. "I trust the bribe was handsome," the Mensa member wrote. So I guess I shouldn't take that all expenses paid trip to Australia next year?
