I was listening to Rush the other day and your words sound like his transcript. That view is delusional and I challenge you to produce evidence supporting your baseless assertion that "they hate America as it is and want to reshape America after the Soviet Republic."

1) Give examples of how Kucinich hates America?
2) What has Kucinich done to model the USSR?

In reality, Kucinich loves America more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched by corporate thieves and religious theocracy in government.

Actually, Ron Paul is a phoney. He says he's against earmarks and manages to get them in spending bills. Then, he votes against the bill, which passes anyway, and can then claim that he voted against earmarks while still getting them.

He's pretty consistent on other issues however, especially foreign policy and the Patriot Act. The point is that it's probably not a good idea to have a congress that is 99% in sync when it comes to anything. I want to have at least a couple of guys in there playing devil's advocate.

Precisely. The powers that be will make sure the best people are eliminated. Truthtellers are not allowed in DC.

Look at Al Sharpton trying to make sense and be mr information. What a joke that network is.

Speaking of, how come liberals arent outraged that he is on TV? Last I checked, hes never apologized for some pretty racist, vile, homophobic things hes said in his past......
I watched old Al do his thing but I got more of kick out of how the long necked one changed the subject from Democrat to Republican so deftly. She does that very well, I think.

Ohio Republicans drew the Congressional districts in northern Ohio to pit Kaptur against Kucinich. It's as simple as that.

It's called "gerrymandering". Look it up.

There goes one of the few decent US politicians left.

This isn't fair. I would give anything for Dennis Kucinich to be my Representative of my district.
