I think I love Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH)!

[Brigid]

Still one of the most startling moments I've ever seen out of Congress:

[deathrind]

1. This was a pretty gutsy thing to say...

And she was absolutely right to say it. Went back an watched Inside Job and Capitalism- A Love story again recently and have been reading Matt Tiabbi's new book. What the banks pulled off over the last decade and more without being held accountable is simply astounding and infuriating.

2. From the moment she took Kucinich The Faker out, I've adored her....

10. Cheerleading for John Boehner does NOT belong on a Democratic board

He was the one who tied the Kucinich West Cleveland residence to Toledo (Kaptur's tradtional turf) with a thin strip of the Lake Erie shore that is under water at high tide. There is something badly wrong with any Democrat who thinks that's a good thing.

12. It's ALWAYS about taking a shot at the left

No matter what the subject



It's what they do

[msanthrope]

15. Kucinich, from his Fox News paid gig, doesn't to be very left to me. nt

16. If you pave a transcript of him repeating RW talking points, post it n/t

[msanthrope]

18. His interview with Bashar Assad didn't strike you as strange? He let the good doctor

lie, dissemble, and prevaricate. You can readily find the interview on YouTube. Not a shining moment for Dennis.

[eridani]

20. That is not a right wing talking point n/t

[RandiFan1290]

17. Yeah, you figured it out!

Dennis was a plant to help push through the tax cuts for the rich and the invasion of Iraq.

[msanthrope]

14. Well...now you've moved the goalposts. Redistricting made Kucinich attack Kaptur,

not Boehner...and that is unforgiveable in a Democrat.

[ColumbusLib]

4. Yeah!

This is awesome; hadn't seen it. Thanks for posting!

5. K&R

[Fuddnik]

6. That speech is about 4 years old.

[Brigid]

7. I know.

But I still love it.

[Enthusiast]

8. She is very good.

[msongs]

9. great to see a DC democrat with leadership skills sorely lacking in congress and white house nt

[lovemydog]

11. Yeah - don't give a bank or credit card company any original copy!

Ask them for the original. If the bank can't present the original mortgage or original cardholder agreement (and in many cases they can't because they have been bought and sold and merged) - tell them you dispute their claim. Tell them you don't acknowledge their phony arguments unless they present the original. Tell them to stop harassing you.

[AngryAmish]

13. Doh!

[IronLionZion]

19. "You be squatters in your own homes!"

Yup, like Marcy Kaptur. I wonder about Ohio sometimes. I feel like that state can be more Democratic if our party tried harder to GOTV.
