Paying serious attention to lefty Kucinich is like asking a fish for a cigarette.

I think Kerry,Clinton and the walrus-mustached Bolton should parachute in and use their deadly combat skills to take out Assad.

He might have something there (for once) as DNI Clapper came out today and stated the facts presented represented the “least possible untruths” of the matter.
