Kucinich: "Equity, not cash for trash in bailout"

"The Wall Street financial disaster is an opportunity to create a genuine ownership society. If Congress invests $700 billion in the market, then the American people must get something of real value for their investment." Lees verder


Voormalig presidentskandidaat Kucinich gaat op zijn Zweeds.

Equity?

Kucinich seeks to bar US oil firms from Iraq

August 1, 2008

Rep. Dennis Kucinich has introduced a measure that would bar US oil companies from receiving contracts in Iraq.

The Ohio Democrat, who believes exploiting Iraq’s massive oil reserves was the primary reason we invaded, introduced a measure he says aims to keep Iraq’s oil wealth within the country.

“Iraq needs oil revenue now more than ever as they try to rebuild their country,” Kucinich said Thursday, unveiling the Oil for Iraq Liberation Act. Bron

Pelosi past wet aan voor AIPAC: oorlog tegen Iran mogelijk zonder toestemming Congres

De wet zou het in feite onmogelijk maken om een ongeprovoceerde oorlog met Iran te beginnen zonder toestemming van Congress, tenminste, als deze sectie aanwezig was geweest in het wetsvoorstel.

En nog mooier, ze zegt dat ze dit moest doen op het verzoek van AIPAC, de Israelische lobby in Amerika. Vertaald artikel door Squarepusher

Nancy Pelosi & Zionist Warhawks Move to Punish Congressman Kucinich for Pushing Impeachment of Cheney

  • Is Dennis Kucinich Being McKinney'd?
    Get Kucinich
    By KEVIN ZEESE
    Counterpunch, February 8 / 10, 2008
    Straight to the Source

On the Hill some call it being McKinney'd--the treatment Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney received when she was in Congress. Twice, rather than protecting the incumbent, the Democrats put up well funded challengers against her. Now, it looks like Dennis Kucinich may be facing the same treatment in Cleveland.

There is a report circulating the web that before the Nevada primary Kucinich was visited by representatives of Nancy Pelosi and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the right wing Israeli lobby. They told him that if he would drop his campaigns to impeach Cheney and Bush, they would guarantee his re-election to the House of Representatives. Kucinich threw them out of his office.

Kucinich has aggressively challenged the Democratic Party leadership in Congress and on the presidential campaign trail on the issues of war, civil liberties, impeachment and big business control of government. He's even refused to pledge to endorse the party's presidential nominee.

Kucinich to Introduce Impeachment of Bush Before State of the Union January 28

In a brazen show of courage, Congressman Kucinich took to the House Floor yesterday and called Bush and Cheney the liars that they are.

"The President and Vice President lied and 4,000 of our soldiers died. The President and Vice President lied and a million innocent Iraqis died in a war that'll cost us two trillion dollars while people here in the states are losing their jobs, their health care, their homes, their dignity. Lies are weapons of mass destruction. Lies are also an impeachable offence. Monday, January 28th is the State of the Union. We already know the State of the Union, it's a lie."

Kucinich stapt uit de verkiezingsstrijd

Kucinich was de meest linkse van de presidentskandidaten. Hij stond erg kritisch tegenover de oorlog in Irak en het beleid van president Bush.

VRT


Erg jammer. Hij was mijn favoriete kandidaat, en samen met Ron Paul en Mike Gravel een echte peace-kandidaat, niet onder invloed van AIPAC.

An Open Challenge to Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul

All of the Top Tier candidates (Obama, Clinton, McCain, Huckabee, Romney, Giuliani etc.- Johnito) will continue the war, while the two that pledge to end the war are pushed aside... the only thing that does make sense is: Ike was right.

The Military-Industrial Complex, the war machine now owns the media and are openly pushing the pro-war candidates- illustrated perfectly by NBC (GE) appealing to the NV Supreme Court to remove Kucinich from the Debate, and the NY Times excluding the two ant-war candidates, even though Ron Paul just won 2nd in Nevada!

Bush Admits He Plans to Attack Iran

Bush needs that war in Iran to distract from the plunging economy.

So, if tomorrow really does bring a huge crash on Wall Street, it would be a great time for "someone" to nuke the New York financial district (freezing the losses and justifying the declaration of a national emergency) and blame Iran for it. --Mike Rivero, Jan 21, 2008 10:52 AM PST Category: IRAN

There is only one American Party - The "make war for Israeli Jews" Party. Note how the grassroot "make no wars for Israel" politicians are marginalized.

The only candidates not in Israel’s pocket are Kucinich, Paul, and Gravel

New Hampshire voters have chosen warmonger clones of Bush/Cheney for their party’s presidential candidates. The only candidates not in Israel’s pocket are Kucinich, Paul, and Gravel, who have no chance for their party’s nomination.Obama, who provided some hope for change, undercut his support on the eve of the New Hampshire primary by declaring that he would invade Pakistan in order to protect America. It is a mystery why Obama thought this message would motivate those inclined to support his candidacy.This means change is unlikely. Neocon think tanks, media, evangelical preachers, President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and many other members of the government have succeeded in turning a majority of Americans into scared Islamophobes and in denying Americans any reliable information about the cause of the conflict.

Candidates Push for a N.H. Recount

On Friday, Albert Howard, an obscure candidate from Ann Arbor, Mich., who appeared on the Republican ballot and received 44 votes in the primary, hand-delivered his recount request and a down payment of $2,000 to the statehouse in Concord, N.H.

And Dennis Kucinich, an Ohio Congressman and presidential candidate, sent a letter to the New Hampshire Secretary of State asking for a recount of the Democratic ballots. Mr. Kucinich’s letter cited “unexplained disparities between hand-counted ballots and machine-counted ballots.”

Both Mr. Kucinich and Mr. Howard, whose Web site lists making “computerized voting illegal in all 50 states” as a top campaign issue, will have to come up with the money to pay for the recount. But they are allowed to back out when the recount process begins. Source

Dennis Kucinich wil Ron Paul als running mate

Hoewel momenteel vooral John McCain, Barack Obama en Hillary Clinton zich in de belangstelling van de media mogen verheugen, zijn er zowel bij de Democraten als bij de Republikeinen veel interessantere kandidaten voor het Amerikaanse presidentsschap te vinden.

Een van de weinige echte peace-candidates van de Amerikaanse Democratische partij, Dennis Kucinich, stelt in bovenstaand interview dat hij best samen met de Republikein Ron Paul campagne zou willen voeren. Hoewel beide kandidaten qua binnenlands (sociaal) beleid hemelsbreed van elkaar verschillen, denkt Kucinich dat er met Paul wel degelijk zaken kunnen worden gedaan. Op het vlak van buitenlands beleid komen hun standpunten juist sterk overeen, zeker waar het hun stemgedrag m.b.t. de oorlog en anti-terreurwetgeving betreft.

Kucinich's UFO Experience-- An Excuse for The MSM to Pull a "Dean Scream" Media Hit Job?

I like the fact that Kucinich has seen a UFO. It's one more bit of evidence that he's a man who has the courage to explore the edges of what it is to be human. But his strong rise in polls and his tough positions on health care and other issues make him a targe for the same kind of media hit job attack that Howard Dean suffered.

I have to wonder, when Tim Russert asked Dennis Kucinich about his UFO sighting, he was aiming at pulling a Dean Scream media hit on him. After the Iowa Caucus, when Dean let out a whoop, and a videographer with a mike on Dean over amplified the sound, the three second clip was shown thousands of times to mock Dean-- at a time when he was in a position to win the election-- something none of the major networks or mainstream media wanted. Dean had threatened to re-regulate the de-regulated media, forcing them to dis-own radio and TV stations where they had a monopoly, or just too much control of the media in a given metro area.

All Kucinich said was that he saw something flying in the sky which was not identified. He did NOT say he saw a spaceship filled with little green men. -Michael Rivero

Kucinich to Force Impeachment Vote on the House Floor

September 27, 2007, Filed under: Impeachment Progress News, Ohio — Jodin Morey @ 3:40 pm

This bombshell just dropped by Rep. Dennis Kucinich on the Ed Schultz show. Kucinich is considering forcing an impeachment vote on a "privileged resolution" on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Time to call your representative and let him/her know that you will not support any candidate who doesn't support accountability and the rule of law.

You can reach the Capitol switchboard toll-free at 1-800-426-8073.

You guessed it.
