Dennis Kucinich, the former Democratic congressman and presidential candidate, blasted his party colleagues on Tuesday over a push to examine President Trump’s mental and physical fitness for office – and potentially use the findings to seek his removal.
The campaign is being led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who has tried to rally support for his bill in the wake of Trump’s controversial attacks on various media outlets and personalities.
But Kucinich told “Fox & Friends” that Democrats aren’t doing the party any favors with proposals like this.
“It’s a political statement, not a medical statement,” said Kucinich, a Fox News contributor. “I think it’s destroying the party as an effective opposition.”

When kucinich says you are around the bend — you are REALLY around the bend!!!
Except for the Obama care vote, Dennis has always exhibited great integrity. He was a communist, but an honest one.
Would be nice if this a$$hole would go away, take the Clintons and the other jackasses with him. Can’t this fool get a job somewhere, like packing boxes or cleaning dead animals off the roads?
The demonicRAT Party is filled with morons who worry about islands capsizing, who think a person’s sex can vary from day to day, who laugh about babies being dismembered as they exit the womb and its parts sold like cuts of meat, who say we lose 93 million Americans a day to gun violence, who said that President Bush’s tax plan would cost 500 million jobs a month, who say 700 billion Americans will die from TrumpCare, who think the American flag flies on Mars, who think Ted Kennedy and Bill Clinton were champions of women’s rights, and President Trump is the one with mental problems???
In her analysis, Clinton emerges as the sum of two bedeviling paradoxes. The first, the paradox of the Hollow Sun King, refers to the strange emptiness that we perceive at the center of the charismatic Clinton phenomenon. The second, the paradox of the Paralyzed Sprinter, to the utter chaos that reigns at the center of his administration -- and, seemingly, of his mind….. Efron writes of the fragment of stone at the bottom of Stephanopolous' kaleidoscope -- reflecting in a unique way, showing a different facet to each person as Clinton turns.
This is a metaphor for the elusive "real Clinton"; but, in truth, there is no real Clinton that we could possibly comprehend. That little fragment is so alien that it might as well not exist in our universe. At the core of this man, Clinton, where the soul is supposed to be, there is, instead, a gaping void. A black hole. The Sun King exists only as the irresistible gravitational pull he exerts on others and the dying light -- the catastrophic annihilation -- of everyone and everything that strays too close to his event horizon. Within, there is an unknowable emptiness…."
"Only an idiot would buy the public persona of Bill Clinton," says Walter Erricson, a retired reporter who covered Clinton in his early political days in Arkansas. "He is an incredibly profane individual. He is now and always has been an angry man who wants to inflict as much pain as possible on his enemies." White House staff members say Clinton curses like a sailor, has temper tantrums that cause people to back away from him and uses the word "kill" often to describe what he wants to do with his enemies...."
It was the description of the latter that intrigued me: 'Their most pervasive trait is a stunning lack of conscience. They are glib, lack remorse, guilt, or empathy, are emotionally shallow and lie easily and convincingly. Underneath a charming, sometimes irresistibly likeable facade, the closet psychopath is ruthless, ambitious, selfish, and dishonest. They are social predators who charm and manipulate their way through life, leaving a trail of broken hearts and empty wallets. Power and control are all-important to them, and they will use threats, intimidation, litigation, and violence to get what they want.' A nail-on-the-head of Slick Willie, wouldn't you say? ."
It’s a pretty stupid precedent to set. Do the Dems imagine it won’t come back to haunt them? Two words, guys: Harry Reid. How’s that filibuster working for you?
I kinda liked the guy from Ohio that had the squirrel on his head.
Is he trying to keep his job & $$$ from coming in?
This had three disastrous consequences. First, the word "no" did not need to be taken seriously.... Second, and I absolutely can not overemphasize the importance of this, in being allowed laxity in return for inane arguments a generation came to believe that it could argue reality out of existence. This formed the foundation for very serious mental disorder. In recent decades the failure of thoughts, of speech, of behavior to conform to basic reality is no longer a signal to a person that he may be doing or saying something irrational. Rather, it has become interpreted as a sign that one has a public relations problem that must be addressed by creating a new series of arguments in a campaign to deny reality. At the presidential level this necessitates a campaign to obscure or redefine what the words "sex" and "is" mean. Third, it both delays and intensifies childhood temper tantrums...."
So what? Many geniuses had quirks.
BEETHOVEN kept a tub of water handy as he was fond of writing in between visits to his washstand.
STRAVINSKY did headstands for 15 minutes every morning to clear his head.
EDGAR ALLAN POE wrote only on scrolls.
BEN FRANKLIN took air baths as he would spend up to an hour standing naked at his open window.
ALBERT EINSTEIN could step out in front of a car and with the basic knowledge of how fast the car was going and the distance from him he could cipher down to the third decimal point how long it would take the car to hit him in a couple of seconds. But he was unable to determine he should get out of the way.
DR. SIGMEND FRUED was addicted to nicotine and cocaine.
CHARLES DICKENS couldn’t stand to have a hair out of place, so the writer kept his comb nearby and ran it through his hair hundreds of times a day.
And they want to question him for trying to save this country, one they are trying to destroy?

Wow - amazing analysis of what I have secretly suspected of being the closest thing to an Antichrist candidate in recent history. But Clinton is finally fading. His rambling talk at Helmut Kohl’s funeral betrayed a sick man exhibiting little of his former charisma.
ARNOLD Crittendon, a retired intelligence analyst, says Clinton has become a "laughing stock" in both the military and intelligence communities. "His political motives are so blatant that they would be farcical if we weren't talking about the lives of American soldiers," Crittendon says."There wasn't that much respect for the man to begin with. What little there was is long gone now...."AIDES say that Clinton started focusing more on foreign policy when it became clear he would not be convicted in the Senate impeachment trial. "He wanted to find some foreign policy arena where a bold stroke would showcase his administration as a world leader," one former aide says. "When it became clear that he was focusing on Kosovo, a lot of people tried to talk him out of it. But Bill Clinton is a man who won't let goof something once he focuses on it. He was sure that defeating a tyrant would restore his place in history. "But military planners told Clinton he could not win a limited air war in Kosovo." The President was advised that his strategy was flawed and did not serve the national interest," says one Pentagon planner, "but he wasn't interested in hearing the facts.... "
A psychologist who treats obsessions says Clinton's preoccupation with his legacy could be viewed by mental health professionals as a warning sign over the President's stability. "THERE are enough outward signs that the President is so driven by his obsession with his legacy that it could be affecting his mental judgments," says Dr. Stephanie Crossfield. "If I were consulting on thePresident's case, I would recommend further evaluation of his condition...."
My husband just met him at Logan Airport and said he was charming and very nice.
If ANYONE’S “mental fitness” needs questioning its the liberals when one considers the crap they keep pushing. They just cannot accept the fact that the majority of the American voters do not agree with their warped thinking.
kucinich?.......?????????????
oh...didn’t he used to be 0’Pinhead’s supernumerary?
