Dennis Kucinich Missing After Air Force One Meeting

dennis-kucinichCongressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) met with President Barack Obama today on Air Force One to discuss the current healthcare reform bill meandering its way through House and Senate political wringers.

Kucinich staunchly opposes the current Senate bill because it lacks the so-called "public option" (which, by the way, most Republicans want because they read it as "pubic option"); reportedly, he will not vote "Yea" on the bill.

Now he's missing.

Witnesses in the rural outskirts of Cleveland reported earlier today that they saw a mysterious package fall from the plane: Egghead-shaped, about the size of a Leprechaun, making funny high-pitched mumbling noises with a pocket Constitution in tow.

But then they said they thought they were just imagining things. Kind of like Kucinich and his run for president.
