For a pixie, Kucinich has great big balls.

Depressing though, reading what has transpired in the past eight years.

Meh, bigger than every other dude's in the room, at least.

And really, that's all that ever matters.

Articles. Awesome.

If Dennis promises that Bush will be burnt at the stake like Joan, in the middle of Times Square, I'll forgive the fact that the guy is a loony ******** and wants so bad to be a sheep in wolves clothing.

It's not the first time he tries to impeach someone in the Administration. In April '07, he tried to impeach Cheney, and in October of the same year he called for Bush's impeachement. Both moves were seen largely as political, since he was running to be the democratic Presidential nominee. I'm guessing this time around he waited until the nominee was apparent so his move wouldn't be seen as a political one, even though it has no hope.

As for Kucinich himself, he's out there, an avowed pacifist who repeatedly asks for the establishment of a Department of Peace and Nonviolence, but that's what his constituents love about him. If you ever get a chance, read through some of his speeches. They're all this nuanced and moving. He's a liberal's liberal---his great flaw is that he's a gnome. That, and his wife is a dirty hippie.

Sadly true.

Its stupendous what you can get away with if you are called 'President' or something similar.

Bush, Mugabe, Blair etc....

IN!

I stop listening to CSPAN for a few months and I miss this... I would have loved to listen to the reactions on the house floor.

lol

I think congress is practiced enough in wasting their own time.
