Live Response to Democratic Debate by Dennis

Dennis will be talking in response to the comments being made by the democratic candidates even though he is not at the debate itself. We have already been there on the campus marching through the grounds expressing our discontent with Dennis being silenced. It was a loud and impassioned throng that came out in the hundreds to give a civil response to the control of the debate by media conglomerates. It was thrilling to see the numbers of people who came out and shouted and chanted as Dennis and Elizabeth Kucinich marched with banners at their backs and cameras flashing at them. In the snow we trudged around with the sounds of the snow underfoot being lost in the raucous exuberance of Dennis' supporters who felt both disappointed and confident. Disappointed that we are shut out, not just Dennis. Confident that what Dennis represents speaks for all of us.
So, the horse race talk continues. There is not much to recommend their commentary but to laugh at the incredible double entendres these people spew forth as if they were not aware of their own arrogance. It is an incredible show of hubris, spread across the airwaves with no corresponding self-awareness.
Now that the media gets to determine what the discussion should be and to frame how the nuclear terror threat presents itself. Dennis strongly opposes any further inflaming of the situation in Pakistan. He comes out against the whole notion of further militarization of our response to the condition in Pakistan.
Let me continue in another post. Stay tuned.
