Don’t Be Fooled, Kucinich Is A Coward

At Dennis Kucinich’s reelection website the tag line is; “Dennis Kucinich America’s Most Courageous Congressman.” This is certainly a bit of hyperbole but for the most part Kucinich stuck to his guns with regard to what he believed. He did not waiver from his positions even those involving aliens (the kind from outer space).

Kucinich gave every indication that he was going to continue that pattern with regard to the health care takeover. As recently as two weeks ago Kucinich said that there was no way he could vote for this bill because it did not contain the public option. Kucinich is a big government Socialist type and he wants government to run health care, something he defines as a civil right.

Kucinich was wooed by Barack Obama with a ride on Air Force One and was then chastised by Obama at a rally in Ohio. When Kucinich returned from the event he would not talk about his position on health care, you know, the thing he could not vote for.

Today at 10 am Kucinich showed that he is far from the most courageous Congressman when he held a press conference to report that he would now vote yes for the bill, a bill he described as flawed and one that he was not satisfied with.

When he explained how he arrived at the decision he said he talked to Obama, Pelosi, his wife and a few friends. He then decided to vote yes. At no time did he say that he discussed it with any of his constituents or that he had taken their desires into account. This is because he does not care what they want. He is not courageous, he is a coward.

Kucinich needs to remove that line from his website and replace it with; “Dennis Kucinich Another Political Whore.”

There is no word about what Kucinich got for his vote. It could have been a Lewinsky from Obama or 30 pieces of silver but my gut feeling is that he got the public option sneaked into the bill.

I wrote about it last night and I am sure that Kucinich was paid off with what he wanted in the bill.

It will be fun to watch it get removed during reconciliation. The public option is not a budget item.

The Democrats are destroying our country with their blatant disregard for the Constitution.

We need to make sure they pay for this in November.

Illegal Beaners Need not Apply

Imagine if employers had a sign in their business that read the same as the title of this post. Imagine the uproar that all the ILLEGAL immigrant groups and the other amnesty seekers would cause. The owner would be called a racist, threatened by the feds, have protest marches at his store and he would be drummed out of business but not before he had to attend sensitivity training. I imagine if he said that the word beaner was not meant as an insult to anyone it would make little difference. Given Dennis Kucinich’s opposition to the word ILLEGAL, the employer might get executed.

According to the Washington Times, “A Casa Furniture and Bedding store in Alexandria has been advertising easy credit with a twist: “no gringo papers” necessary.” The word gringo is an offensive word used to refer to a foreigner in Latin America [usually American or English]. An assistant manager says the word gringo is not meant to offend anyone.

Yeah, good luck with that. Of course, it will be overlooked and no one will require the sign to be removed. The ACLU will not file a law suit and these folks will continue to insult Americans in their own country.

BTW, the person tried to explaining that people needed no white papers and that is why the word gringo was used. The Spanish word for white is blanco so if they wanted to say white paper blanco would be the word used.
