Going to see Dennis Kucinich

That's right boys and girls, we are going to see Rep. Dennis Kucinich, one of our favorite Presidential candidates, live and in the flesh tomorrow night in Asheville, NC. He will be speaking at UNC Asheville and we will be there to see him.

Why do we love this long shot? Let me count the ways:

  • He introduced articles of impeachment against Darth Cheney.
  • He is the sponsor of the Department of Peace.
  • He wants to take out the profit motive in our health care system.
  • He's been a firebrand since the days when he was the youngest ever Mayor of Cleveland, Ohio

We loved him then and we love him now. And you know what Dennis? We're sorry for not voting for you in the TN Democratic Primary back in 2004.

We are psyched about seeing any candidates in person in our area but even more so because this one holds so many positions so close to our little simian hearts.

Special K's The Man! Speaking truth to power is rare these days, and he's one of the "keepers." Tell him Massachusetts loves him, ok?

And great blog! Found you through my muse, Blue Gal. Any friend of hers, as they say...

That's great that you are Going to see Dennis Kucinich! Bring back pictures and stories! This is a cool link - "Peace is Inevitable" Bill Maher Interviews Dennis Kucinich. I'm still rooting for Nancy Pelosi in '07! She is only two indictments away from the oval office!

Thanks for the tip on that site Doc, but when I went there they had a McCain banner on the top of the page. It almost made me toss my supper.
