U.S. Congressman and Presidential Candidate Dennis Kucinich: The U.S. Must Pay Reparations to the People of Iraq

Transcript here

Kucinich: "I crafted my peace plan with the help of people who served in the U.N., including peace-keeping missions over the years, who understand that not only must we stabilize Iraq, but we also must pay reparations to the people of Iraq for the great human tragedy that has been caused."

This chump, who is also a card carrying member of Congress ought to consider paying reparations to the entire country for the political damage that he has done, and is so intent on doing to our Nation.

It stymies me that such an A$$hole could garner enough votes from civilized people to actually hold an Office that should be considered as “prestigious.”

He didn't. His majority is in Cuyahoga County.

I agree, reparations, but not cash, give the Iraqi’s Cleveland, Ohio to do with as they please.

This lunatic congress critter can return home without fear of being hanged for his traitorous and insane comments....which is a sad commentary our determination to deal harshly with traitorous politicians who take these International Foreign Policy interference trips..

All who wish to pay reparations to ANYONE in the Turd World, should be given an address to mail their personal contributions......

Fools and THEIR money should be separated....I just don’t want them using MY money for such foolishness...
We’ve already paid too high a price to free Iraq..
The way I look at it —— THEY owe us, big time.

[i]Can someone - anyone? - explain how someone like Kucinich, who is clearly INSANE by ANY standard of rationality, can garner enough votes to be elected to ANY office of public trust and responsibility? Please?[/i]

The GOP is rolling over and playing dead in Dennis the K’s district (and mine, in fact). He gets a ton of union money.

Between the Cleveland auto business failing and the growth of wealthy suburbs in District 10, he SHOULD be toast in 2008, and back to channeling Lenin with Shirley MacLaine.

I happen to think that the little gremlin needs to pay reparations to the city that he darned near ran into bankruptcy! Wasn't that Cincinnati? I can't remember off hand. But I seem to recall him being a complete failure at that, so of course, given the peter principal, he's elected to a federal office!

Geez!

He’s the only honest “New Democrat” in the party. He is the true voice for moonbats. BTW, Reparations = a chance for gainful employment in my book.

We free the country from a vicious dictator, setting the stage for the first free elections in the country's history. We defend it from its enemies -- al-Qaeda, Iran and Syria.

And Kucinich says we should pay fo rthe privilege.

Just like a Democrat. The U.S. is always wrong. But, more dangerously, the enemy is always right.

“Kucinich: The U.S. Must Pay Reparations to the People of Iraq”

I’d like to suggest a third party ticket of Kookcinich/Paul.

The House of Representatives passed a resolution calling on the UN Security Council to sanction Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for his threats against Israel.

And the only two members of the House who voted against the resolution both happen to be presidential candidates: Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul.

“The American people have got to be the most stupid people in the world to elect idiots like this to Congress.”

Like the song says:

If you feel like you need a scorecard
Well you really don’t have to fuss
You know the winners always somebody else
And the loser is always us

The Dems seem intent upon proving to the Russians, Chinese, and everyone else, that democracy does not work.

It all began in the late 70’s. This guy is a nut and all Ohio’s that continue to vote for him deserves him.
