12. The Qadaffis were already invited to the State Dept. No need for
Kucinich to do it.

Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton welcomes Qadaffi's son to the State Dept.

He was here for five weeks, being treated like visiting royalty. Did Kucinich invite him, or was it the Administration?

Best to leave the subject of socializing with dictators alone. Too many of our current and former leaders have had zero problems inviting to dinner. There are thousands of photos of almost all of our leaders posing with Qadaffi and members of his family, from Bush to Obama and everyone in between all over the internet, now embarrassing to all of them I guess.

But I couldn't find one of Kucinich. He did do his job as a US Congressman tasked with the burden of deciding whether the US should be getting involved in another war, and went to Libya to try to find out for himself if the reasons given were factual. I guess he learned after the last administration not to take the word of anyone on something so serious.
