On March 13, 2007, author Norman Solomon wrote an essay on ''Common Dreams'' website saying, "When you look at the practicalities of the situation, Pelosi and [[Harry Reid|Reid]] could be more accurately described as speaker and leader for the war-management movement." Solomon notes that the powerful liberal advocacy group "MoveOn seems to have wrapped itself around the political sensibilities of Reid, Pelosi and others at the top of Capitol Hill leadership. ... Last week, while MoveOn was sending out a mass e-mail to its 3.2 million members offering free bumper stickers urging 'End This War,' the MoveOn leadership was continuing its failure to back the efforts of the [[Congressional Progressive Caucus]] for 'a fully funded, and systematic, withdrawal of U.S. soldiers and military contractors from Iraq.'" Solomon said that it is sad to see Moveon's "handful of decision-makers failing to support a measure to fund an orderly and prompt withdrawal from the war."<ref>Norman Solomon, [http://www.commondreams.org/views07/0313-23.htm "The Pragmatism of Prolonged War,"] ''Common Dreams'', March 13, 2007.</ref>
