Bring Them On? Bring Them Home!
Jacqueline Kucinich
Bring 'em on. George W. Bush's use of this indelicate phrase--which he tossed out when asked in July about the armed resistance in Iraq that was killing US troops--prompted critics to blast him for displaying a cavalier attitude concerning the dangers faced by US military personnel. It also spurred an anti-occupation effort waged by relatives of the people Bush has placed in the line of fire.
On August 13 family members of military personnel serving in Iraq gathered at the National Press Club in Washington to announce the Bring Them Home Now Campaign. "Today we want to talk about three words of false bravado.... George Bush says, 'Bring them on.' We say, 'Bring them home now,'" said Nancy Lessin, co-founder of Military Families Speak Out (MFSO), an organization of about 600 military families opposed to the US occupation of Iraq and the lead outfit behind the campaign. http://www.thenation.com/doc/20030818/kucinich
