10 Consequences of A "YES" Vote

Keep the war going through the end of President Bush's term;
Provide money to fuel an attack on Iran;
Force the privatization of Iraqi oil;
Escalate the insurgency;
Increase the number of troop causalities in the middle of a civil war;
Increase the number of civilian causalities;
Create a demand for more troops;
Enforce cutbacks of the agenda of many in Congress because money that could be used for schools, healthcare, seniors and the environment would continue to be spent for war;
Forces the destabilization of the Middle East;
Erodes the public's confidence in Congress.

I just received an email from Dennis Kucinich about Congress and the Iraq War. Normally I would not have a diary with so little content of my own, but the letter is not in Kucinich web site (yet!).

The most relevant part of the letter, IMO is:

The Democratic Party is at a turning point. Either we take this nation out of Iraq by cutting off funds NOW or we will forfeit the trust and the confidence of the American people. There will be consequences for Democrats funding the war.

In comments in several Diaries and Front News many have stated that "Fox News viewers already drunk the Koolaid", or disparaging remarks about Fox News viewers. I'm not discussing here the argument that having Fox host a primary debate is lending that network legitimacy. That's another discussion. Here I want to focus in the argument that a Democratic Primary Debate hosted at Fox is useless.

If you are in the Reno / Carson City area, you can meet Dennis and Elizabeth Kucinich this Wednesday, February 21 st, at the Comma Cafe, 312 S. Carson St, Carson City.
