My sports analogy for todays big event:
What beautiful poetic irony that a "little" guy just landed a solid left hook to the jaw of one of the biggest baddest figures in the history of American politics. Regardless of what happens next, watching Dennis Kucinich and the subsequent chaos today was a lot like watching a 100-1 underdog knock down the defending champ in the first round.

I am very proud of and inspired by what Dennis Kucinich did today.

5. I think a lot of American citizens will be also
for the most part I see the American people ready to be rid of these war criminals. the spying on us is troubling to most I talk to and the torture stance they have taken really has a lot of people worried for our Troops well being upon capture.
