MoveOn.org Civic Action was started by Joan Blades and Wes Boyd,
two Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. Although neither had experience in politics,
they shared deep frustration with the partisan warfare in Washington D.C.
and the ridiculous waste of our nation's focus at the time of the impeachment
mess. On September 18th 1998, they launched an online petition to "Censure
President Clinton and Move On to Pressing Issues Facing the Nation." Within
days they had hundreds of thousands of individuals signed up, and began
looking for ways these voices could be heard.

MoveOn was formed in the late 1990s, calling for censure
of President Clinton rather than his impeachment. Founders Wes Boyd
and Joan Blades were no techie neophytes - he created the distinctive
"Flying Toasters" screen saver.
