QUOTE: From the Nation:
"In as much as the overwhelming majority of Americans did not know about the Bush-Hitler comparison until Gillespie publicized it, it would seem that the RNC chair is the one who should be apologizing."
So, um, let me see if I have this right. MoveOn subsudizes and publicizes the Bush-Hitler ad. Gillespie makes it possible for more people to see the Bush-Hitler ad, and complains about how making that comparison is way out of line. Ergo, it's Gillespie's fault for... um... being outraged? Letting people know what the ad actually looked like?
