Congressman Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, claims he suffered permanent injuries after biting down on olive pit hidden in a sandwich he bought three years ago at a House of Representatives cafeteria. In return, the Ohio Democrat is suing the cafeteria for $150,000.

It’s the Tea Party, Glenn Beck and Palins fault. Why sue the cafeteria?
His wife is very young and good looking. This bad tooth and the oral pain he must have suffered probably affected their sex life for a long time
I am surprisd she isn’t the one suing.
Three years ago? WTH? I know times are tough, but c’mon.
“Imagine if he swallowed it whole!”
His wife would have no problem doin’ that. As long as it didn’t get stuck on the tongue stud!
There once was a twerp named Kucinich
Whose campaign I’d like to unhitch
His first name is Dennis,
but he’s known as The Menace.
And how did he marry that hot redhead, it’s drivin’ me crazy, I can’t understand it! Oops! Sorry!
In Cleveland he’s known as a dip switch!
Of course then hell sue the olive packer, the jar or can manufacturer it came in, then theres the olive producer producing a dangerous product with no warning label then of course the trucking company; not to mention the person who made the sammich, - need I go on???
This guy’s whole life isn’t worth $150,000.
Ever wonder why the population of Cleveland had dropped 50% in the last 30 years? Wonder no more.
What a jerk. I mean if he broke a tooth I could see him getting something for the cost of the dental work but, $150,000??? That’s ridicules. I’m assuming this money will be paid by tax payers.
Hmmmm, he claims he has had multiple surgeries for this. I have a hard time believing you’d need several surgeries but, what do I know. Tooth pulled and replaced? That wouldn’t be any where near $150,000. Maybe a couple of thousand or so.
I wonder if the Congressional cafeteria that served the offending vegetable is staffed by SEIU members.
I believe that a piece of bone in hamburg and probably a pit in an olive is considered “natural” and sometimes can’t be helped so litigation will be thrown out.
He should have gone for a cigarette butt and could have made a fortune.
I agree!!!!!
If he swallowed it whole, he’d be talking proctologist...which is what he needs.
The House cafeteria was privatized a few years back. That’s the real reason this tin foil wearing commie wants to sue!!
