The Washington Post ran a semi-serious article called The Love Song of Dennis J. Kucinich in this morning's editions. I'm sure that the accompanying photo actually represents Dennis Kucinich (5'6") standing behind his seated wife Elizabeth (6'), but darned if it doesn't look like she's giving him a piggyback ride. One great part of the article is this bit:
Dennis Kucinich wears the look of a man who's just won the sweepstakes. He says a colleague from the House told him it didn't matter how he did in the presidential race because he'd already won.
He'd won Elizabeth.
"I responded, 'Now you know why I think I can be president?' " Dennis says. "If I can marry this incredibly brilliant, beautiful woman, I mean, why wouldn't I think I can be president of the United States?"
I can think of about 15 reasons but I don't want to be a killjoy. Now that he's so happy, perhaps he'll switch parties?
I thought you'd bring the Republicans vs. Democrats thing into the argument. :lol: :roll:

Past experience and analysis indicates that comment volume on the site increased by over 75% for 7 days following a political jab.
There's really no good reason not to make them. Plus it is a purgative agent for the kinds of intolerant wackos who cause problems in the forum. (You wouldn't believe how many bad apples I've driven away just by the occasional joke post about Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher being responsible for the wondrous glut of Eastern European musclegirls.)

You're really Dennis Kucinich, aren't you? You've got your laptop propped up on the bar at Hawk and Dove, and you post comments here in between consorting with communists and the like. Right?

Yea I've kinda just grown numb to it heh.
At least you're not using this site to inform everyone about world-wide terror threats anymore. And for that, I commend you.

It's been a long while since I've had to comment on another of your boorish political jabs so I'll let this one slide.
But there's only 19 days till Christmas so try to be a good boy or Santa might stick Dick Cheney up your, I mean in your stocking.
Peace man

Not everybody to the left of Attila the Hun is a varmint. We're all on the same spectrum, just at different positions, that's all. Now, please don't be tempted to call me a varmint, or I'll spam you with Keith Olbermann videos. 8) :lol: :lol:

but there's a website where they ask you 11 key questions and how you feel about it and they tell you which candidate (Rep or Dem) matches your viewpoints. I was a bit surprised on who topped my list and I probably will not vote for him anyways but there was no surprise on the five individuals who were on the bottom of my list. :)
