Consult the Text! Nevada Judge's Order to MSNBC to Let Kucinich Participate in Tonight's Debate
As expected, this morning at 8:03 a.m (PST), Judge Charles Thompson of Clark County District Court in Nevada signed an order forcing MSNBC to include Dennis Kuncinich in tonight’s Democratic debate.
Citing the “timing” of Mr. Kucinich’s exclusion, the “importance of the caucuses,” and the “obligations of the media,” Judge Thompson ordered MSNBC to include Mr. Kucinich or face a shutdown of the debate:
“[T]he Court finds that the harm to Plaintiff and the public if this Order is not granted outweighs any conceivable harm to Defendant from granting the Order.”
The judge also ordered NBC Universal to pony up a $1,000 bond.

Silencing Kucinich will come back to haunt all those involved, including the front running phonies.
God Bless Dennis. I talked with Dennis last week in the kitchen of a friend's house. He stopped by after a loooong day, tired as all get out, but was kind (and strong) enough to come visit some of his supporters. The man is as REAL as they come and an elevated soul. I kept thinking to myself, if they could just see Dennis right now, drinking his hot tea, talking to a few folks in some guy's kitchen, and see his honesty and integrity front and center, he would be elected in a landslide.
Instead America, keep your MTV and Faux News on and enjoy your Kool-Aid........ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ........
You go Mr. Kucinich! We Nevadans don't stand for spoon fed pablum any more than the rest of Americans with IQs above 91* (George Bush/linguistic IQ.... average= 100)
Dennis you speak for me and millions of Americans who know the value of truth spoken to power. The degree of resistance you meet is proportionate to the threat that the honest and intelligent man you are represents to the illigitimate powers that be.
See you tonight!

What does this say for the Democratic party? EVERYTHING!!!
What does this say about the integrity of the other Democratic candidates? EVERYTHING!!!
Who do you want for your next president? Someone that stands for justice? Or, someone that stands in silence for injustice?
I want a president with integrity. I vote Kucinich.
The choice is easy.
Thank you Judge Charles Thompson! You give America HOPE.
