THE CHEMTRAIL CANDIDATE:

Many Kucinich backers are out there...way out (Mark Naymik, 03/09/03, Cleveland Plain Dealer)
Some of Dennis Kucinich's politics are a long way from polka, bowling and kielbasa.

Kucinich, now in his fourth term in the U.S. House, has added a constituency--one likely to appreciate crystals and incense more than the ethnic icons he frequently cites to highlight the character of his hometown.

Known for crusades to keep open local steel mills and hospitals and to improve safety near railroad crossings, Kucinich remains rooted in a pro-labor populist social agenda.

But he also can claim the support of a network of peace activists and New Age gurus, from those who practice meditation to those who embrace alternative religions.

They are attracted to his message of spirituality and peace.

He is relying on this cultivated network - even at risk of being tagged the "Moonbeam Congressman" - to help him win the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination.

Kucinich, a strict vegetarian whose friends include a New Mexico spiritual adviser, has won converts specifically with his legislation to ban the use of weapons in space and to create a U.S. Department of Peace.


Only in a Democrat primary could Al Sharpton be the third least serious candidate. Posted by Orrin Judd at March 11, 2003 10:28 AM

Don't blame me, I just live here (but not in Kucinich's district!)

Mr. Judd;



What is with the "moonbeam"? Everyone knows you fire the mind control lasers from low earth orbit
. There's just too much attenuation otherwise.



For the non-obsessive, the Kunicich bill referenced in this post also forbids (via clause ยง7.2.A.ii.II) "[...] the use of [...] spaced-based
[orbital] systems using radiation, electromagnetic, psychotronic, sonic, laser
, or other energies directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the purpose of information war, mood management, or mind control
of such persons or populations"

AOG informs us:

"[...] the use of [...] spaced-based [orbital] systems using radiation, electromagnetic, [...] or other energies directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the purpose of information war, mood management, or mind control "




Does this mean no more Fox News and New Age music channels on DirectTV?

"..or other energies"



What about "love energy"? Is that alright? Or are all 'energies' banned?



Thanks Mike!
