Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) on Oct. 20th, demanded a "resolution of inquiry" that would allow the House of Representatives to have access to "white papers, minutes, notes, emails or other communications kept by the White House Iraq Group (WHIG)" pre-Iraq war.
Apparently, Kucinich is looking for something to point to proving that Bush and Co. "lied" about our reasons for declaring war on Iraq.
The principal reason that America should move in the exact opposite direction that Dennis Kucinich would have is the fact that he is a Socialist, anti-American, pro-bin Laden pansy who is incapable of any kind of rational thought or comprehension.
Here are a few fun facts about Dennis:
He is a member of the House Progressive Caucus, a group headed by avowed socialist Bernie Sanders and allied with the Democratic Socialists of America. The Democratic Socialists of America, before they were exposed by an internet column a number of years ago, had a page on their website offering a "song list" of tunes that match the Democratic Socialists ideology. Here is a lyric sample:
Are you sleeping, Are you sleeping,
Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie,
And when the revolution comes,
We'll kill you all with knives and guns,
Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie
And another:
When the Red Revolution
Brings Its Solution
Along, Along
There'll be no more lootin'
When we start shootin'
That Wall Street throng
Of course, after the column exposed the Democratic Socialists as well as the Progressive Caucus, the website shortly thereafter deleted this page. Luckily, Archive.org still has its cache on there for you to read:http://web.archive.org/web/19980206053556/http://www.dsausa.org/rl/Docs/Songs.html#7
Kucinich believes that the only way to win the war on terror is by trying to make sure terrorists get more money: "We cannot hope to end terrorism by killing terrorists. Hatred feeds on violence and killing. I understand this and am here to offer a more practical approach: to reduce poverty worldwide..." He also offers other helpful suggestions, such as "pull our troops out of Iraq," "reaching out and rejoining the world community" and realizing the need to "develop a deep understanding of the cause-and-effect relationship between history and acts of terror."
And this man expects the American people to take him seriously when he proposes an effort to investigate White House intentions pre-Iraq invasion.
About WHIG, the group Kucinich wants an investigation into, here is what we know so far:
The White House Iraq Group (aka, White House Information Group or WHIG) was the marketing arm of the Republican Party whose purpose was to sell the 2003 invasion of Iraq to the public. The task force was set up in August 2002 by White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and chaired by Karl Rove to coordinate all the executive branch elements in the run-up to the war in Iraq. One example of the WHIG's functions and influence is the "escalation of rhetoric about the danger that Iraq posed to the US, including the introduction of the term 'mushroom cloud'".
That's it. That's the problem: A group worked to drive support for the Iraq war based on true pretenses.
Dennis the Socialist Menace is probably not the person the Dems want representing them in their crusade to prove that Bush "lied" about the Iraq war. I wouldn't put too much money on this one, libs...
