As President Obama unveils his plan to escalate the war in Afghanistan, we speak with Ohio Congressmember Dennis Kucinich. The United States is going deeper and deeper into debt, says Kucinich. We have money for Wall Street and money for war but we dont have money for workfor healthcare. We have to start asking ourselves, Why is it that war is a priority but the basic needs of people in this country are not.?

  • Obama = Bush

    Obama = Bush

    Obama = Bush

  • Obama = Bush ; Biden = Cheney

    Do the math and stop being apologist for warmongers. You are all hypocrites as you are defending and waffling like those on the right waffled for their puppets. The left -right rivalry is a farce, as they are both for the same team. Obama has increased homeland survallience beyond Bush. All Obama's people are Goldman Sachs men and the have robbed mainstreet blind. He has a covert war in Pakistan going too (just like the Contras), You are now neo-libs!

  • "They don't want to be saved from us. They want to be saved from us." Brightest quote I have ever heard.

  • the "later roman empire"? haha. pelase. i have a feeling you've never even read gibbon.

  • @PoiZinConTrol wars begin when you will, but they do not end when you please.

  • @rextrek -he looks tired because he actually is one of the few Congressmen who work for the people.

  • Stop this endless war now! It's insane. I marched in a war protest in Orlando, Florida almost 5 years ago. Is this stupid war going to go on for five more? Please, men and women in the military, put down your weapons and refuse to fight. Then maybe you can come home alive.

  • this guy is cool

  • rextrek :

    I imagine fighting the good fight would leave anyone tired. I still wish he had become president.

  • shame someone like him - who truly cares for the people he represents...can't have a seat in the front row of american politics
