11. This is getting so tiresome

It's SO fucking easy to call for things that will NEVER pass.

Bless Kucinich's heart, I assume it's in the right place. But truth to tell, I'm beginning to have doubts either about his grasp of the fundamental realities of life (and Congress) or, barring that, reality itself.

Here are Dean positions on:

Economic Growth and Job Creation (speech)

Labor

No, he's not calling for an International Minimum Wage. As delightful an idea as that is, it's pie-in-the-sky, and the two candidates who are proposing it KNOW that. The technical term for it is pandering. If the idea starts to resonate with voters, you can watch for Kerry to announce his own pie-in-the-sky pandering support of this idiocy.
