Has Kucinich weighed in on Grayson's PO/Medicare bill?
I've looked but haven't seen anything yet.

Waiting to see if he'll support it (and therefore stop torpedoing the current health reform bill and instead turn his attention to championing Grayson's bill to fix the PO issue), or if for some reason he'll come out in opposition to it. Heads would explode. ;)

2. I was thinking the same while wondering why he didn't introduce his own or co-sponsor
Does he propose bills? ...or oppose?

3. He's too busy grandstanding and getting his
mug on tv to actually do any work on Health Care Reform.

Oh, and making sure the vote he gave for the War in Afghanistan cancelled out bc he knows more than the military on the ground when they should leave.

8. Given this on his website, in addition to his announcement of his P.O. bill, I'd say yes. :)
CONGRESSMAN GRAYSON PROUDLY SUPPORTS AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE FOR AMERICA ACT

November 7, 2009

Washington, DC

Congressman Alan Grayson voted tonight in favor of the Affordable Health Care for America Act. The bill (H.R. 3962) will deliver life, health, and peace of mind to the tens of millions of people in the United States who do not have health insurance.

Congressman Grayson said, "I promised from the start to vote for any bill that saves money and saves lives. This bill does both. This bill will help save the lives of the nearly 45,000 Americans who die every year because they do not have health insurance."

9. Thanks, berni!
I'd been Googling all over and couldn't find any mention of Kucinich saying anything about it, let alone being a co-sponsor. I'm surprised he wasn't with Grayson at the podium, getting his share of the limelight. :P
