| Description | Former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel, who was dropped from televised Democratic presidential candidates debates months before Dennis Kucinich was, accuses the Cleveland congressman of hypocrisy in a stinging video (above) posted on YouTube titled "Et Tu, Dennis."
Gravel's video notes that although Kucinich complained that candidates John Edwards and Hillary Clinton failed to mention his exclusion from MSNBC's Jan. 15 debate, Kucinich himself didn't mention Gravel's exclusion during MSNBC's Philadelphia debate in October. It cuts to a clip of Gravel after the Philadelphia debate, accusing his fellow Democrats of lacking a "real foundation about the problems with corporate censorship in our society" and "a real personal foundation of free speech."
"Dennis, you failed to highlight Mike Gravel's exclusion when you had the chance," the video concludes. "How can you expect the other candidates to mention your exclusion?" |
