Rep. Kucinich Has Good Ideas For Iraq War

    Dennis Kucinich ( D-OH ) is trying to become the next president of the United States, which will never happen as this man is into getting to many people's feathers ruffled. Not to mention the near recall that he barely got past after allowing the city of Cleveland to default.

   But, Kucinich has said a few good things when it comes to our congress,senate and the war in Iraq.            MORE BELOW

As both the Senate and the House consider and debate "non-binding resolutions" to address the President's proposed "troop surge" in Iraq, Congressman and Democratic Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich took the floor of the House today to declare, "The House will soon entertain a resolution relating to the surge. It is a nonbinding resolution. The war, however, is binding."

"The real -- and Constitutional -- power of Congress, as a co-equal branch of government, is to cut off funds for an immoral and illegal war," Kucinich said. "Money is there right now to bring our troops home, and bringing our brave troops home is part of a plan that involves enlisting the support of the United Nations to mobilize international peacekeepers so our men and women can come home."

"I have a 12-point plan which I have circulated among Members of Congress," Kucinich said, "as to how we can get out of Iraq. The American people will not tolerate nonbinding resolutions as being an excuse for strong and substantive action to end the war as quickly as possible."

   His 12-point plan is worth going over as it does have some very good ideas in it. There are one or two that could be omitted and this plan would then be plausible.
