Dennis Kucinich needs our Help. 
 Advertisements [?]DK is up for reelection in March.

He has 5 challengers all with huge Corporate Money behind them attempting to unseat him

Dennis has earned our help.

Stop corporate interests from buying a seat in Congress

Corporate interests in Cleveland are spending huge amounts of money on television and elsewhere to make sure that Dennis Kucinich is not re-elected to the U.S. Congress.

If you want to make sure that they don't get away with buying an election and buying a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives,
please consider making a contribution today so Dennis can buy the advertising time he needs to continue being the voice of truth, courage, and integrity.

Thank you,
Kucinich for Congress

Click here to watch the video ... or read the transcript below:

Hi everyone, Dennis here.

One month from now is the Ohio primary and I'm running for re-election to the House of Representatives. I'm also being outspent 5 to 1. Corporate interests are converging on Cleveland in an effort to try to knock me out of Congress.

I need your help to make sure that there continues to remain in the United States Congress a voice of truth, a voice of courage, a voice of integrity.

I want to continue to serve in Congress to stand up for my constituents and their economic rights: the right to a job, to health care for all, to retirement security, for the education of their children.

I need your help in order to do that. These interests groups have enabled television ads to be run against me for 2 weeks running and I haven't had the resources to be able to go back on television and to respond to them. But with your contribution I'll be able to do that.

So please go to our website right now at kucinich.us and give us the resources that we need to beat back this corporate challenge.

I'm confident that with your help I'll be able to continue to be the voice in the United States Congress that you count on to be heard in times of crisis. We need to regain our country. We need to sweep aside the fear that has engulfed this country. We need to set back the greed that is undermining this country. I'm prepared to do that and I'm prepared to do that with your help.

Thank you.

1. One thing that makes me skeptical...
 If "corporate money" was against Kucinich, wouldn't it all get behind ONE candidate. By creating an entire field of challengers, thus splitting the anti-Kucinich vote, doesn't that actually HELP Dennis?

I'd be more suspicious if only ONE challenger appeared with all the "corporate money".

Reality doesn't match the campaign "corporate conspiracy theory".


reason one............a primitive skeptical of the dwarf

2. reality isn't always a strong suit of some of DK's arguments
 I don't have any problem with DK getting re-elected. Its just that I wish that he (and his supporters) would run against his opponents, not against some made up conspiracy.


Reason two.............. :lmao:

I hope no explanation is needed  :rotf:

Poor li'l Denny.  It is hard to disguise your mental illness when voters have five sane folks to compare you to. 

That buzz phrase "corporate money" just floors me.  Denny's fruitball constituents are suppose to automatically understand that any money from a corporation is dirty and evil.    I laugh and laugh.  DUmmies are such gullible little pull-toys.  I'm sure li'l Denny is "corporate money" free.  ::)

My prediction is li'l Denny is about to be put in the history books.  And congress will go on just the same without him being 1/435ths of it.

That won't stop the primitives from lying about their "maximum legal contributions," though.

Stupid primitives.

These things, especially "maximum legal contributions," can be checked out.

To retuen him to his home planet.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
