"REP. DENNIS KUCINICH: Well, it's very easy, Judy. I not only voted against it, but I did an analysis five years ago that totally debunked the Bush case for war...


JUDY WOODRUFF: But what about today? How is your position different?

REP. DENNIS KUCINICH: But today what's different is this, that not only did I reflect the capacity for judgment and wisdom at the moment of crisis when it really counts, but also today I have a plan that would bring our troops home and stabilize Iraq at the same time, and also leave Iraq in control of their oil.

It's embodied in H.R. 1234. It's a plan to end the Iraq war. I submitted versions of that plan immediately after the invasion, but today there are many people who talk about ending the war, but I have the plan to do it and a way to stabilize Iraq at the same time.

There's no one else who really has presented that awareness or who is saying, look, the privatization of Iraq's oil or the partition of Iraq is a path to continued war."
