December 21, 2007 WASHINGTON – The liberal MoveOn.org, a leader of an anti-Iraq war coalition, is asking supporters to help pay for free phone-calling cards for soldiers overseas in a partnership with the USO, the charity that has helped troops for more than six decades.
MoveOn.org contacted about 3.3 million people on its e-mail list yesterday with the request to donate $15, the cost to buy one phone card for USO's Operation Phone Home program. That program began in 2003, the same year the Iraq war started.
“MoveOn members are committed to seeing our troops come home as quickly as possible, and we'll keep working to make that happen. But right now, supporting the USO is a simple way to make a genuine difference in the lives of brave men and women who've sacrificed a lot for our country,” the e-mail said.
