One of the best cases FOR Kucinich: from the RNC website
In just about every one of the criticisms coming from the RNC, I see someone I WANT to vote for!

(excerpt)

KUCINICH'S ULTRA-LIBERAL RECORD

Kucinich's Radical Record On Intelligence Efforts

Kucinich Twice Voted For A Five Percent Across-The-Board Cut To Intelligence Funding. (H.R. 1775, CQ Vote #253: Rejected 142-289: R 27-198; D 114-91; I 1-0, 7/9/97, Kucinich Voted Yea; H.R. 3694, CQ Vote #137: Rejected 120-291: R 21-196; D 98-95; I 1-0, 5/7/98, Kucinich Voted Yea)

Kucinich Voted Against Fiscal 1999 Intelligence Funding. The conference report on the bill to authorize intelligence funding for fiscal 1999 called for a slight increase from fiscal 1998 levels. (H.R. 3694, CQ Vote#487: Adopted 337-83: R 174-47; D 163-35; I 0-1, 10/7/98, Kucinich Voted Nay)

Kucinich Voted Against A Bill Requiring Federal Agencies To Share Classified/Non-Classified Information On Homeland Security Threats With Law Enforcement And State And Local Officials. (H.R. 4598, CQ Vote #258: Passed 422-2: R 213-0; D 207-2; I 2-0, 6/26/02, Kucinich Voted Nay)

10. I guess that's why
" lack of faith and a deepening cynicism :-("

In who? or what?

Maybe that's why I came to that conclusion... there are so few clues in those short words, that I really don't know *where* you are.

Some of your terse comments in the past have lead me to believe you had some harsh opinions.

11. I do have harsh opinions
that was my point

I'm not believing that Dennis Kucinich is allowed to be my representative, and I've channeled that anger into being mad at him and people who support him (which includes me)

So, I'm sorry about that. It was not my intention to bring the Kucinich people down.

13. LOL

Maybe you could consider channelling that anger into helping him, instead, eh?

I hate to lose that vote! Kucinich already lost the "Ship my job to another country and let me get a McJob" vote.

12. Hmm..
I wonder if the RNC will publish the names of the 21 Republicans that voted with Congressman Kucinich on the first bill or the 47 Republicans that voted with him on the second bill.

And who, I wonder, was the other courageous Democrat to stand with Congressman Kucinich on the 3rd. bill (422 – 2)?

14. They most certainly would not
And this is exactly why he is marginalized. He'll shatter everyone's illusions about who's working for the people vs. who's working for the corporations.

Just about nobody in either party wants that information getting out there.
