One can only wonder what his wife is entitled to, not to mention the American taxpayer.

Dennis Kucinich Sues House Cafeteria
 Source: Courthouse News Service

WASHINGTON (CN) - Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich says he suffered permanent injuries from biting an olive pit hidden in the sandwich wrap he bought at a House of Representatives cafeteria. He demands $150,000.

The former presidential hopeful sued Restaurant Associates, which operates the cafeteria in the Longworth Office Building, its parent company, Compass Group USA, and food suppliers Performance Food Group Co. and Foodbuy LLC.

Kucinich seeks damages for negligence, in Superior Court.

Kucinich says the cafeteria claimed that the sandwich had pitted olives, but after he bit the pit he "sustained serious and permanent dental and oral injuries requiring multiple surgical and dental procedures, and has sustained other damages as well, including significant pain, suffering and loss of enjoyment."

3. Reasonable amount.
 Were I him I would've brought the case after I'd left the public eye, however. Perhaps there's a statute of limitations on this kind of suit?

Smells like a class action lawsuit for anyone who had to listen to one of Kucinich's speechs.

150K for a tooth? How is that a "reasonable" amount, you DUmbass?

Didn't the anointed one say something last night about limiting frivolous lawsuits?  Perhaps he should start in his own party.  Although maybe Kucinich belongs to the Alien Party.

perhaps his Limey Hippie Chick wants to go shopping.

Sometimes you get a pit in a can of pitted olives...guess the kitchen helper who checks all the olives was sick and stayed home that day.

You were completely covered Dennis...why cry wolf.

Surprised he didn't sue California where many of our olives are grown.

Lousy Freeper Troll!   :lmao:

At the DUmp, the love is not flowing toward Dennis today.

If'n you're dumb enough to listen to him for more than 5 minutes without taking a sledgehammer to that RonPaulian squeak (notice how those two sound alike?), consider yourself a loser.

I mean, this from the guy who brought pie charts to a RADIO debate?

Of course you would have. You primitives/liberals love it when you get something for nothing.

Kooch is a dirty old man who has had three bites at the apple.  



This being the latest in his cradle robbing.  Sounds like kama to me.    Must have been a partial plate he broke, he is older than dirt.

Prolly the reason he brought the suit! he wants to get in under the deadline which would more than likely limit him to $150 and expenses!

Isn't this one of the DUmmies Supreme Beings? Shouldn't they be praising this DipShit for screwin' the corporation? Oh wait, these guys are probably Small Business!

I'm curious, is KickAnItch a slip and fall lawyer in private life? Think he'll support Tort Reform?

Oooooooh! I usually get BSed for shit like that! But Ah'm sure "Toots" wouldn't like it if Ah had one! So I'll let ya go, this time!

ETA:

Ya know, it comes to me that this is exactly what DUmmies are! They want somethin' for nuthin'! Always! Doesn't matter the economy, the unemployment, who it harms, or the fact that the dollar is suckin' hind tit. All they care about is theirs!

Gimme, gimme, gimme! That's all they know. Sacrifice to these people is like Holy Water to Dracula!

This prick doesn't need the money, but if he can get it, it's owed him! Ya think maybe DUmmies, that's what's wrong with the federal budget?

No wonder they like this sawed off runt so much!
