He&#8217;s not in a game. He doesn&#8217;t win any prizes. If he&#8217;s lucky, he&#8217;ll come home with his life and with all of his limbs and with his sanity.&#8221; We can&#8217;t allow this new show to be a new military recruiting tool.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Military Families Speak Out was founded by Nancy Lessin and Charlie Richardson, who were members of the Maoist Revolutionary Communist Party before they decided that they didn&#8217;t like Bush and formed MFSO. <\/p>\n<p>As members of this forum know, Veterans for Peace is generally populated by pretenders and fakers. <\/p>\n<p>The Granny Peace Brigade was protesting outside the White House on Mothers&#8217; Day 2003 holding a banner that read &#8220;Mothers Against the War&#8221;. I asked them how many were actually mothers. One raised her hand. I asked her if her son or daughter was in Iraq. She answered &#8216;yes&#8217;. A few more questions revealed that her son had been in the Gulf War, not the then-current war.
