The media ignores him. Jon Stewart mocks him. But Dennis Kucinich needs
our attention because he speaks for us like no other candidate. Come to

for his endorsement of H.R. 676, the health care bill introduced by

11. Hey, you! Long time to "see".

Greyhound, Viva and I are going to go see Sicko then go over to hear Dennis. See this thread for details.

Hope to see you there!

:hi:

2. As a former Oregonian, I urge all the Portland-area DUers to go hear Dennis

I first heard him speak in St. Paul in 2003, and I was actually in tears at the end of his speech, because I'd been waiting for 25 years to hear a Democratic political figure talk frankly about universal health care, the bloated military budget, and our nation's screwed-up priorities.

Dennis got only a single-digit percentage of the vote in Oregon's Democratic primary in 2004, but based on my recollections of Oregon politics (such as Portland's ability to stir up 10% of its population to demonstrate against the Iraq invasion or for public education), he's a great fit for the left side of the state's political spectrum.

3. Anybody interested in seeing Dennis and then Sicko @ Lloyd Center?

Or maybe seeing the movie first?

4. I can't do the movie, but I can do the speech!

Thank P. for telling me to check the OR forum. :) and Hey! to you too R. :evilgrin:

[Cerridwen]

5. And, voila! Here I am.

He's not been online for a while.

I figured since you'd already seen the movie you might not care to go again so soon, but maybe we can find a place to meet before Dennis' speech?

6. I woke up so excited this morning!

I even looked up the show times. :)

4:40 show will be perfect, then off to see Dennis 2 blocks away at 7:30. I seem to remember a little Cantina in that area... and we'll have just enough time in between... You guys are gonna need a drink after seeing this for the first time.

8. Ha! That's what I'm getting ready to do.

But you got it covered so you're getting a call as I type this.

:D

7. I really want to see Sicko, but...

...I don't know if my blood pressure can stand it. Watching and/or reading about these types of atrocities gets me more riled than is healthy. I will try to make it to Benson to see Kucinich, though!

[Cerridwen]

9. Hey, you! Good morning.

I was thinking if we went in a group, we could have people to vent our high blood pressure with. You know, some healing rants after the fact. See Viva's post - we're going to meet her at the theater at the Lloyd Center.

It'd be great if you decide to come too.

10. naptime kick!

I wanna make sure I have plenty of energy to get pissed off and hopeful tonight. :evilgrin:
