MADRID, Spain - Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan led a small protest Saturday outside the U.S. Embassy to denounce the war in Iraq.
About 100 protesters carried banners criticizing President Bush.
Sheehan, whose soldier son was killed in Iraq, called Bush a war criminal and said, "Iraq is worse than Vietnam."
The protest also was called in memory of Jose Couso, a Spanish television cameraman killed on April 8, 2003, in Baghdad when a U.S. tank fired at a hotel where many foreign correspondents were staying. Reuters cameraman Taras Protsyuk, a Ukrainian, also was killed in that incident.

You know her 15 minutes are up when she can only attract about 100 protesters in anti-war, socialist Spain.

Cindy is doing her whirlwind policy-development European tour----and hardly anyone in the US even noticed she was out of the country.
Cindy is like Bill Clinton -- they'll have to pry her fingernails out of the floorboards to get her off her self-aggrandizing public stage.

Well, the Spanish family of the journalist convinced a leftist judge to issue arrest warrants for 3 US soldiers for this friendly fire incident. They are charged with murder and crimes against the international community with a possible sentence of up to 35 years in prison. Does Sheehan have a position on this?

I don't know anyone who can cry that much. My own mother lost 2 sons and still wouldn't be able to cry on demand.
While the pain is always there we do get the ability to control ourselves and continue on with our lives.
This pig has to have a form of Munchausen's. She is benefitting emotionally from all the attention she gets from her dead son.
