Kucinich (D-OH) Demands to Visit Private Bradley Manning

Good for him. He is is clearly using his position as a Representative to shine light on what is clearly an attempt to torture the alleged Wikileaks source into fingering Julian Assange:

Ohio congressman Dennis Kucinich has asked the Defense Secretary Robert Gates for a visit with an Army private suspected of giving classified material to WikiLeaks.

Kucinich, a Democrat who is a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, sent a letter Friday to Gates asking for a visit with Pfc. Bradley Manning.

Manning is being held in a Marine Corps brig in Quantico, Va.

Kucinich says he is concerned about reports of Manning's treatment while in custody. Manning's lawyer has filed a complaint with the Quantico commander about the conditions Manning is being held under.

I'm not a particularly big fan of the distinguished gentleman from Ohio, but he's right here.

The worst thing about this is that it is only his name on this letter.

Where are the other 434 people who have sworn to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution" in Congress?
