Kucinich is a hero. He has stood up to the mendacity of those who take millions from the insurance industry and then try to portray themselves as populist champions. Regardless if you agree with the pragmatism of his approach, suggesting that he should be challenged in the primaries because he dared to stand up to Obama’s mediocrity of hope is appalling. The great tradition of American liberalism is to speak truth to deception. And that is what Kucinich has done. Tonight we heard the Prince speak Machiavelli’s words on MSNBC. It is one thing to advocate for a more pragmatic approach, it is another to attach those who dare to speak out against the corruption of this system. Shame on you Markos.
