Many Democrats criticized its passage as too hasty, with some even claiming they did not have a chance to read the hefty legislation before the vote. At the time, the Republican majority did not question it, falling in line to support the legislation.

Kucinich is my favorite Dem by far. I don't like his domestic socialist ideas, but he's still my favorite. He's also right on this one.

The Dems have all but vindicated Bush policy. Everything from taxes to the patriot act remains intact.

So you're saying that Bush was also a Marxist?

Feb 2010;
"at Obama's request Senate and House of Representatives ditched their two conflicting measures and extended the Patriot Act for another year without any changes"

Dennis Kucinich rawks.

He's also right here.

The privacy shredding Patriot Act is beloved by both left and right, unfortunately. Although some Dems still have the courage the question the necessity and efficiency and Constitutionality of the so-called Patriot Act their numbers are too few.

The proto-facists on the right and the Nanny Staters on the left both love the idea of increased governmental power in the name of National Defense and neither are gonna give up such powers easily without a huge hew and cry from the masses.

Be Well.

kucinich is occasionally embarrassing for the corporate/military/
intelligentsia as they do whatever the fuck they want to us.

The government doesn't care about you, or your children, or your rights, or your welfare or your safety.

It simply does not give a fuck about you!

It's interested in its own power. That's the only thing.

Keeping it and expanding it wherever possible.

How did thoes no-good republicans get that done?

Passage of this legislation today continues to make Congress complicit in these violations of our basic constitutional rights."

"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss"

All you Lefties who bought into this Hope & Change crapola feel pretty silly right now.

The Marxist Empty Suit is out to "Change America" as we know it...pretty scary if you ask me.

Bush/Obama, same-same

Kucinich is the left's version of the right's Ron Paul. Hey Michael Moore where is the sequel to fahrenheit 911 lol the patriot act lives lol
be well

The greedfuckers running our country have exonerated themselves and their co-conspirators retroactively, which is unconstitutional. Not that they give a shit, or you can do anything about it. That's the beauty of destroying jobs, it renders millions of people helpless.

Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul ARE the Democrat and Republican members of Congress. Period. :-(

Kucinich is living proof that aliens have visited the Earth....and mated!

no justice no peace

Wurster #2,

Kucinich is your favorite Democrat by far???

All kidding aside - are you really serious?

JM

Hell, Kucinich is my favorite alien by far!!!

I would not cry if someone were to "blast" congress into space.

Kucinich is one of the only good representatives left. I'm so sorry for your party - the Blue Dogs did nothing but give black eyes. Any and all "capitulation" is bullshit - why a majority can't function is beyond belief.. until you see how long most of the Congressmen have been in office. Then it crystallizes.

Kucinich may be the biggest nutcase idiot ever elected, but he's right on this.
