I've got an even better idea...how about raising hell with the media and with the DNC apparatchiks for virtually shutting Dennis Kucinich and his message OUT of the discussion?  There's a lot more to Dennis Kucinich than there is to the hemmers and hawers and rank opportunists opposing him on this and other issues that deserve media coverage.  Kucinich CAN win...IF we vote for him...instead of meekly accepting the media's pronouncements on whom we must take 'seriously'.

Why settle for less than the best?  "Lesser Evil-ism" is self-defeating.</description>

		<description>Rico J. Halo asked: 

When have the Democrats ever had anything but derision and hate for our military? 
&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;

The "Democrats" have never hated the American military.  On the contrary, most Democrats I know (and EVERY member of MY party [the GREEN Party]) object very strongly to its MIS-use!  There's nothing 'patriotic' about sending our young men and women to die in a trumped-up war whose ONLY purpose is to assure multi-national corporations (who have NO allegiance to the U.S.A.) that they can expand their markets and resources for the Almighty Dollar.  That's why we call it 'imperialism'!

You might have noticed that Halliburton, Bechtel, KBR and others have profited obscenely from this latest misadventure in Iraq.  Take off the blinders...and REALLY support the troops.</description>

		<description>I think that bopth of you bring up very good points, but there is one key difference, Edwards gets more mainstream media attention in a day than Dennis gets in a month. We are talking about politics here, not who said it first. I think it is more important that this type of message be said, by somebody who actually gets attention than a candidate that the media does not listen to. I don't support either candidate, but I am just glad that someone is talking about it.</description>

		<description>When have the Democrats ever had anything but derision and hate for our military? So we are supposed to believe that John Edwards has suddenly changed? I dont think so. This is a platform for his White House ambitions and nothing more. Rico from ThatPoliticalBlog.com</description>

		<description>Actually, it is only Mr. Dennis Kucinich who was against this war in the 1st place before it even started. I feel that Mr. Edwards is just playing politics --telling rhetorics but his actions do NOT match his words. Just take a look at Mr. Edwards' voting record as well as the other Democratic candidates as well. In previous news, actually Mr. Edwards support Pres. Bush's idea or plan to go to war in Iran... Let the truth be known. Knowyourdemocrats.com! Thank you.</description>
