Good news... Kucinich to be included in NV debate

yes...

A Nevada judge said Monday that Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich must be included in Tuesday's candidates' debate in Nevada.

Senior Clark County District Court Judge Charles Thompson said if Kucinich is excluded, he'll issue an injunction stopping the televised debate.

The judge sided with a lawyer for the Ohio congressman, who says debate host MSNBC at first invited Kucinich to take part and then told him last week he couldn't.

when our news media start blatantly and openly deciding which presidential candidates we get to see and hear in the most important election in the country's history, it's about goddam time the justice system weighed in on the side of the first amendment...
