Video: Kucinich explains the great olive-pit lawsuit

LAWRENCE O’DONNELL, MSNBC HOST: “You are telling us that your health care plan in congress does not cover you for any dental work or this kind?”

REP. DENNIS KUCINICH (D-OH): “These were injuries that were not covered by any health care plan. I didn’t have dental insurance. I just don’t and i have — I had extensive history with dental work. I didn’t have dental insurance. The costs were paid out of pocket. But i will say in the settlement agreement we came to an agreement that we all agreed took care of the dental expenses, which frankly is what I was hoping for. It worked out. I am glad for that.”
