Perhaps someone can help me, because I really don't understand why Kos regularly attacks Rep. Dennis Kucinich as being "loony" or something similar. Here's the latest:

Here's what too many people still don't understand -- there's nothing loony about the netroots. This isn't fertile territory for the McKinneys and Kuciniches of our party. This is fertile territory for the Howard Deans of our party -- sensible, pragmatic progressives who aren't afraid to be Democrats. Why? Because we're the nation. We're not clustered in DC and NYC, we're spread out over all 50 states, and we know better than anyone what it takes to win in our own backyards.

As her last act as a US Congresswoman, Cynthia McKinney filed articles of impeachment against Geroge W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Condi Rice on Friday December 9th, 2006. Saying in her prepared statement that she was not allowed to make on the House floor, "With a heavy heart and in the deepest spirit of patriotism, I exercise my duty and responsibility to speak truthfully about what is before us...", she formally introduced the articles of impeachment.

The news broke on Matt Pascarella's blog and GNN on Friday evening, quickly spreading to Truthout and the AP wire service. From there it has set the Blogoshere on fire. Here are the Articles of Impeachment filed by Congeresswoman Cynthia McKinney (edited from PDF file) against Bush, Cheney, and Rice... (more)

Outgoing Atlanta congressional representative Cynthia McKinney just took a historic stand as her last legislative act. She introduced into the House legislation to impeach George W. Bush for violating his oath of office to "faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" by committing high crimes and misdemeanors.

"Article I states that President Bush has failed to preserve, protect and defend the constitution. Specifically cited in this article is the charge that Bush has manipulated intelligence and lied to justify war: “George Walker Bush...in preparing the invasion of Iraq, did withhold intelligence from the Congress, by refusing to provide Congress with the full intelligence picture that he was being given, by redacting information...and actively manipulating the intelligence on Iraq’s alleged weapons programs by pressuring the Central Intelligence Agency and other intelligence agencies.”

Rep. Cynthia McKinney apologized on the House floor today:

"I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all, and I regret its escalation and I apologize," she said surrounded by colleagues.

Are you satisfied Soledad O'Brien? Then it's your turn to apologize to McKinney for your outrageous interrogation. Email O'Brien:

On 3/13/06, I called Soledad O'Brien out as a fascist for trying to portray Russ Feingold as crazy for proposing the censure of George Bush.

Today O'Brien also revealed herself a racist - and she needs to be called out on it and both apologize and make amends.

This morning she did her second interview in a week with Cynthia McKinney on McKinney's scuffle with the Capitol policeman. And from the very first second, it was clear that O'Brien's goal was to play prosecutor, judge, jury, and executioner.
