How the media has covered (up) Kucinich's heroic act
That pesky ol "liberal" media is at it again...

How the media has covered (up) Kucinich's heroic act
Dennis's heroic resolution--and the media blackout on it (from Dave Griscom):


Perfunctory mention by the Associated Press:
http://ap.google.com

A short article cogently arguing that just one of Rep. Dennis Kucinich's 35 counts is more than sufficient imperative for impeaching George W. Bush:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com

A check of the "mainstream media" reveals little or no reporting of Kucinich's resolution:
http://www.newshounds.us/

A partial transcript and some video clips of Kucinich's reading on the House floor can be found here:
http://rawstory.com/

To download the CSPAN video, go to:

Again, here's the link to the MSNBC poll to vote on impeachment. It was 9 to 1 in favor with nearly 600,000 responders when last I looked. NOW is the time to run the number into the millions!

1. The media ignores anyone who is not a Neo Con.
They just ignore them. That silences them. It is a violation of free speech to silence the news and our representatives.

8. Channel surfing tonight - I was surprised to see Dennis on Bill-o's
And Bill-o quite merrily APPROVED of Kucinich's demand for an American made Hybrid car.

But wanted more proof before he would embrace the impeachment part of Kucinich's campaign.

I saw only a few minutes, but thought that Bill-o treated Kucinich rather decently.
