Time to put Kucinich in his place

[Mister Ed]

In the place where he's provided desperately-needed leadership on impeachment, on the war, on the "Patriot Act".

In the place where he's fought for justice, for the environment, for the Constitution, for human rights and human dignity.

In the U.S. House of Representatives.

If Rethugs could knock only one of our legislators out of his seat this year, they'd surely want it to be Dennis Kucinich. I think he's likely to see some real ugliness from them in his bid for re-election. But before that, he's facing a heated primary challenge just six weeks down the road.

I just surfed over to his website and made a small contribution to help keep him fighting the good fight. Might be the best money I spend all year.

8. Dennis doesn't have to worry about the Republicans,

its the Conservative (DLC) Democrats that are going to try to knock him out in the Democratic Primary.
The Conservative (Corporate Owned) Democrats will probably have National funding (DCCC) for their Corporate Approved Democratic challenger.

If Dennis is defeated by the Conservative Democrats,
who will tell America:

*Single Payer Universal HealthCare is not only possible, but cheaper.

*that "For Profit" HealthCare is obscene

*that Mandatory Health Insurance is NOT REALLY Universal HealthCare

*that the Democratic Party and American taxpayers should NOT be forced to subsidize some of the richest CEOs in history by subsidizing the HealthCare Insurance Corps and HMOs.

*that the USA SHOULD give the Imperial Palace (Green Zone) back to the Iraqis, close the permanent bases, expel all Corporate Consultants, withdraw ALL US Troops, and begin paying reparations NOW.

*that redeploying some troops at some future date is a PRO-WAR position.

*that the "Oil Law Benchmark" supported by the Democratic Party is a War Crime

*That we can have election accountability with "Paper Ballots publicly hand counted at the precinct".

*that we CAN cut $Billions$ from the Defense Budget

*that the RICHEST Corporations in history do NOT need $Billions$ in welfare subsidies

*that NAFTA (Free Trade) has not been a good thing for Americans who have to work for a living

*that Impeachment is not optional, our reps are SWORN to protect The Constitution

*that the USA should join the rest of the civilized World in banning Land Mines

*that the USA should join the rest of the civilized World in the International Criminal Court.


You can see why some Democrats don't want Kucinich around.
He makes them look REAL BAD!


"There are forces within the Democratic Party who want us to sound like kinder, gentler Republicans. I want us to compete for that great mass of voters that want a party that will stand up for working Americans, family farmers, and people who haven't felt the benefits of the economic upturn."---Paul Wellstone
