Kucinich Says US Should Get Out of Iraq

"This administration does not have clean hands on anything to do with Iraq. ... They have too many conflicting interests," the Ohio congressman told about 100 supporters during a campaign swing.

"The only way to regain credibility is let the U.N. come in and take over responsibility for oil and rebuilding," he said. "I want to see the U.N. in and the U.S. out."

Kucinich stated the soldiers were sent to Iraq "based on a lie." He also reiterated his intention to nationalize the health care system in the US and promised it would not cost more than is being spent now on piecemeal coverage.
