Kucinich a yes on healthcare bill
 
Surprise, surprise. Progressive Democrat Dennis Kucinich just announced he will vote "yes" on the healthcare bill. Wonder what went on aboard Air Force One yesterday while Obama hosted the Progressive Democrat Kucinich. Perhaps he promised the far-left Democrat single payer and a waiver for ERISA. Time will tell.

"Some state and local governments that have attempted to expand health care coverage have been successfully challenged in court under the terms of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA pre-empts states from enacting legislation if it is “related to” employee benefit plans. It reserves that right to the federal government. Section 514 of ERISA states that Title V (Administration and Enforcement) and Title IV (Fiduciary Responsibility) of ERISA “shall supercede any and all State laws insofar as they may… relate to any employee benefit plan.” There is no provision for an administrative waiver of these rules."

Just another case of political prostitution.
 
Time will tell what deal he really made.

Another example of a representative turning his back on his constituency to support Obama's agenda.

Linguine, no spine, no cajones, wuss bag, what's in it for me crooked politicians, caving in for the sake of the 30,000,000 uninsured? barf
