============================================

Today, on two separate but related issues, Congressman Dennis Kucinich

demonstrated the kind of Capitol Hill leadership that is winning

widespread support for his presidential campaign.

KUCINICH BILL TO ABOLISH DEATH PENALTY

Rep. Kucinich introduced a bill today that would abolish the federal

death penalty, noting the 101 men and women exonerated from Death Row.

"The imposition of the death penalty," stated Kucinich, "is both

racially and economically biased. African American defendants are more

likely to receive death sentences than others who committed similar

crimes. Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is an

acceptable moral alternative to capital punishment."

Joining Kucinich in co-sponsoring the "Federal Death Penalty Abolition

Act" were 36 members of Congress, including Progressive Caucus co-chair

Barbara Lee and ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, John

Conyers, as well as many fellow progressives and members of the Black

and Hispanic Caucuses.

BUSH WHITE HOUSE IN "CRISIS OF LEGITIMACY"

Having led opposition to the Iraq war in the House, Kucinich today

continued his demands for the truth about the lead-up to war, asserting

on the House floor:

"This Administration deliberately led this nation to war based on based

on false premises. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. Iraq did not

present an imminent threat to the United States...

"This Administration's deception made America less secure. It has cut

off the US from the world community. It violated the US Constitution. It

violated the UN Charter. It violated the Geneva Convention. It continues

to cost the lives of our men and women in uniform. It has cost the lives

of countless innocent Iraqis. It will cost the American taxpayers well

over 0 billion. It has caused tens of billions of dollars in damage

to Iraq. It has strengthened religious fundamentalists who now threaten

the freedom of women in Iraq society.

"America faces a crisis of the legitimacy of the government itself,

which lied to the American people to get approval for a war."

GONE QUIET? While Kucinich has been unrelenting in giving voice to the

millions of people who questioned -- and still question -- the Iraq war,

other presidential candidates seem to have muted their voices. The New

York Times reports today, "Dr. Dean moved sharply away from the issues

that had catapulted him to early prominence: his opposition to the Iraq

war and, to a lesser extent, his advocacy for universal health care...

He did not mention Iraq once in the course of his 26-minute speech."

...charging people 20 bucks for your poetry.

But do your friends know you're a closet capitalist?

It's okay. I'll keep your secret by not buying your book.

Do you oppose the death penalty?

Do you favor abortion?

Could you explain the horrifying dichotomy that wants the guilty to live and the innocent to die?

Did you get that list of abortion clinics I sent you? There are plenty of good targets there!

I oppose the death penalty.

I am in favor of freedom of choice but only up to a certain date in the pregnancy.

I also support the three strikes law but only with violent offenders, not with drug addict nor dealing offenders.

I am in favor of rehabilitation not incarceration.

Also, I am not ashamed of selling my poetry, and you should buy that book now cause one day it'll be a collector's item.
