Courageous resistance to the rah-rah hype, stubborn foolishness, or deliberate alienation? In any case, Dennis Kucinich was on the short end of a 334 to 1 roll call in the U.S. House yesterday on the annual "9/11 was bad" resolution. (98 members missed the vote.)
"It is important that Congress wake up to the truth and exercise its obligation under the Constitution to save our nation from being destroyed from the lies that took us into Iraq, the lies that keep us there, the lies that are being used to set the stage for war against Iran and the lies that have undermined our basic civil liberties here at home," Kucinich said in a statement.
"The September 11 resolution that Congress considers today should have made reference to those matters. It does not, so I cannot support it."
As for the other presidential candidates in the House, all Republicans, Duncan Hunter and Ron Paul voted yes while Tom Tancredo missed the vote.
