7. Where's
"Wouldn't cross the street to piss on him if he were on fire"? And that's putting it mildly how unfavorably I view that opportunistic ... person.

8. You have opened my eyes!
Dennis, who was drafted into the race because of his stark contrast to Bush, is out to get us all and is a rightwing plant. He is secretly running to start WWWIII, ban abortions and bankrupt America!

Phew I was almost duped, gotta get rid of my avatar and sig lines right now!


Thanks a million!

11. That Has Nothing to Do With My Loathing of Him
I don't think a vast right-wing conspiracy could invent such a parody. I don't think he's in this race for anyone but him. I know it's unthinkable to his devoted fans, but a lot of people plain do not like or trust him on his own (lack of) merits.

13. Rules Prohibit Me from Using the Word I Really Wanted
But yes, many of his self-serving pandering quotes are so far over the edge they seem like a parody of an out-of-touch extreme New-Agey leftist:

“I’d nominate any gay to the Supreme Court, or lesbian or bisexual or transgendered person to the Supreme Court as long as they were ready to uphold Roe v. Wade,” said the candidate, who until recently, never met an anti-choice bill he could resist voting for.

"The energy of the stars becomes us. We become the energy of the stars. Stardust and spirit unite and we begin: one with the universe, whole and holy. From one source, endless creative energy, bursting forth, kinetic, elemental; we, the earth, air, water and fire-source of nearly fifteen billion years of cosmic spiraling," said the man who blames the press for his poor showings despite hiring a transformational kiniesiologist as his campaign manager.

"As a bachelor, I get a chance to fantasize about my first lady.... But in any event I would want definitely want someone who would not just be there by my side, but be a working partner because I think we're in a day in age when partnerships are imperative to making anything happening in the world. And I certainly want a dynamic, out-spoken woman who was fearless in her desire for peace in the world and for universal single-payer health care and a full employment economy. If you are out there call me," said the twice-divorced candidate, looking for a date during a run for the presidency.

Best quote about Kucinich: "Dennis Kucinich has spent his life fighting for the little guy - and that little guy is Dennis." - David Martin

9. In my heart, I know Kucinich is right.
The rest of the country just needs a heart transplant!

10. I love Kucinich
I wish the media would stop ignoring him. You would think that just his persona would get him in front of the media. You know, idealistic, simple, neighborly and oh so smart. If he drops off, maybe he could write the candidates speeches. Why am I saying that? As if he would. He is a man loaded with character and totally unappreciated by the sheeple, who don't even know who he is.

I have an idea. Let's set him up with that blonde bimbo, you know, the one who married the very old man, and has very many bucks for doing so. Can't remember her name -- how could I forget it? Anyway, she could really support his campaign and the media would be following him everywhere. LOL

Seriously, I will be supporting Dennis, as I started out doing before Clark entered the campaign. Goodbye, sweet General. May you be our next Secretary of State.
