Kucinich supports gay marriage. Haven't heard him use the old "between a man and woman" crap.

I like crazy old Dennis. Him not being a bigot contributes greatly to my respect for him.

Thought I would throw my .02 in with everyone else.

1. Anyone who THREATENS the corporate control of the right wing duopoly is labeled "crazy."

They used to apply the same pejoratives toward Paul Wellstone and Cynthia McKinney.

If they can't be outrightly SILENCED, they are labeled "crazy" so the unwashed masses don't listen to their message.

Shame on those minions attempting to speak truth to power - they will be forced to SUBMIT. :(

2. Can you find a link from anything calling Wellstone crazy?

Wellstone was very respected and was most definitely not considered crazy.

3. Kucinich respects all people and does not spout petty

prejudices based on religious dogmas in the public square, like some do. He does not claim that God tells him to be a bigot. Like some do. I appreciate your post very much.

7. I just read that he is "the most progressive president in history."

We are truly through the looking glass now.

8. He is. You know who else supports gay marriage

Senators Gillibrand and Schumer and John McCain's wife. Does that make them the same as Dennis Kucinich?

Bitterness is a powerful thing.
