Reply #10: This is more of what I am talking about. They said they wouldnt continue this war!

Look at how many people don't support Kucinich and look at how many support the others that did vote for it(or thought it wasn't important or what the American people are concerned about). First everyone is outraged at the war but tend to forget that only Kucinich voted no and said it was about oil as the others all looked at the same evidence if not more, and voted yes. Why? Now these same people vote again to continue Bushs war and they still have their support, while Kucinich has always and still has voted no but is unelectable and not backed like the others?

Heres a link to the article and another snip from it.

The move was backed by every senator who cast a vote, save one.

Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold, the maverick Democrat who has led the fight to end the war and bring U.S. troops home from Iraq, was on the losing end of the 94-1 vote. (The five senators who did not vote, all presidential candidates who are more involved in campaigning than governing, were Democrats Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden and Republicans John McCain and Sam Brownback.)

Said Feingold, "I am disappointed that we are about to begin the 2008 fiscal year without having enacted any of the appropriations bills for that year. I am even more disappointed that we voted on a continuing resolution that provides tens of billions of dollars to continue the misguided war in Iraq but does not include any language to bring that war to a close. We need to keep the federal government operating and make sure our brave troops get all the equipment and supplies they need, but we should not be giving the President a blank check to continue a war that is hurting our national security."


How was this not a vote worth being involved in as a front runner to lead our nation or was there way of avoiding it so they can say they didn't vote for it as they didn't vote against it? If all the lives, the money, the security of our nation and our constitution meant anything, we wouldn't support these candidates. To me that states what we are as a people and its not so bright.

I will be voting Dennis Kucinich in the primaries because I no its right for my children's future.
