One of the most frequent charges critics have lobbed at Congressman Dennis Kucinich is that he’s addicted putting Dennis! first — Dennis! running for President, Dennis! playing coy about how he’ll vote on the health-care bill until President Obama flies him out to Cleveland on Airforce One to persuade him, Dennis! keeping HIS congressional seat even if it means moving to Washington or Maine or the Moon, and of course, that damned exclamation mark.
The email he sent out today isn’t going to help refute those charges. While Ohio Democrats are revving up for repeal referendum campaign to revoke the wildly gerrymandered congressional map that statehouse Republicans drew to give the GOP an outsized edge of 3-1 Republican-leaning districts, Dennis is thinking mainly about — you guessed it, Dennis. Titled “We Have a District (Maybe Not),” his email actually attacks his fellow Democrats for campaigning for a map that’s fairer to voters.

Hey Dennis, your bosom buddy al-Assad in Syria just killed another couple dozen protesters.
@kenrmer………….al Assad is a tyrant, a rapist, an agent of terrorism and a murderer. As much as I dislike Kucinich the man and loath his politics your assertion is unfair and unworthy of Kucinich. If you compare Kucinich to evil like al-Assad, when real evil comes along, people yawn. It never pays to make such comparisons. You cheapen evil.
Dennis! keeping HIS congressional seat even if it means moving to Washington or Maine or the Moon.Good to see that he’so loyal clevelend and the state of ohio!If the people of washington or maine are stupid enough to vote for him they can keep him.good ridance to bad rubbish.
