I would like to take a few moments to briefly and officially announce my crush on Dennis and Elizabeth Kucinich. If you have not met this beautiful couple, you should - you may crush on them as well. Now, I'll admit, I like many of Dennis' political stances but beyond the pure politics, I think they're a cute couple. I don't think they are necessarily following Jesus, but they're doing that better than a lot of Christians I know. I want to be friends with them.
Some things I'm crushing on...
- The idea to create an US Department of Peace
- Dennis' great ears
- Universal Healthcare that leaves no one behind
- Elizabeth's story as told in her british accent (you should watch this)
- Dennis on the Colbert Report
- The stance on environmental sustainability
- A commitment to ending poverty worldwide
- Elizabeth's BA in Religious Studies and Theology
- Elizabeth's MA in International Conflict Analysis
- This quote: “We need to understand the connection between peace and the environment. We know that life on our planet is threatened by the twin threats of global warring and global warming. They are linked, and we have to understand that as we cognize the world as being interconnected and interdependent, we know that resource wars are passe and that the focus on sustainability will create peace.” ~Dennis Kucinich
On the debates the other night, Denny said impeachment probably 6 or 7 times. Amen.

First, this is a fine looking web page. Regarding Dennis: it's good to have someone in Washington who seems more concerned with calling out right and wrong than with just getting re-elected.
