Maybe a lone brave voice in Congress but not out here, I thank him and wish him success!

At least a lone voice... historically, this is an act of trying to maintain some self-respect

At least this was read into the record.

We can only hope that future generations learn something from all this. Historians will have no shortage of source material and few gaps in the story.

From the (non)response in the chambers, it does not seem that most of America has learned anything from the experience.

The Speaker has lost support in her district. A credible challenger entered the race in the primary and got 10+% of the vote. That may not seem like much for those who don't know the area but it is a big deal.

No, the first faint sound of the approaching storm. Kucinich does not limit his 35 articles of impeachment to Iraq and related issues, but includes such matters as signing statements and Ohio voter suppression in 2004.

It is odd to observe the dismissive tone of The New York Times and The Washington Post given the supposed traditional role of the Press. Corporate Media is no longer interested to be democratic watchdogs.

Thank you, Mr. Kucinich. In this, you speak for me.

George W. Bush’s sentence-by-sentence speaking skills are deteriorating. Apparently, this may be due to a mental illness called “presenile dementia.” Bush may or may not be secretly still drinking heavily. Bush suffers from narcissism and megalomania. Moreover, Bush has been arrested three times. Bush was arrested for disorderly conduct. Bush was arrested for stealing. Bush was also arrested for a serious crime—driving under the influence of alcohol. There are reasons to believe that Bush suffers from a learning disability. Bush’s learning disability would explain a lot of things. All in all, Bush is a severely mentally ill individual. Bush is not fit to be the president of the United States.
