Social forum wraps up in Caracas with Sheehan calling Bush a 'terrorist'
12 minutes ago
The six-day World Social Forum wrapped up in Caracas with US anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan calling President George W. Bush a "terrorist" during an event hosted by Venezuela's leftist leader.
"By his own definition, he is a terrorist," said Sheehan, the mother of a US soldier killed in Iraq, who gained notoriety for setting up a protest camp outside the US president's Texas ranch last year.
"George W. Bush is responsible for killing tens of thousands of innocent people and his definition of a terrorist is someone who kills innocent women, men and children," she told other invited guests at the live broadcast of President Hugo Chavez's weekly program.
Sheehan called for the impeachment of Bush whom she accused of "war crimes."
She was visibly moved as Chavez, clad in his trademark red shirt, put his arm around her, holding her close to him as he addressed jubilant supporters and delegates from the World Social Forum.
The forum brought together some 70,000 activists, mainly from around the Americas, for six days of debate on globalization, poverty and war, marked by virulent attacks on Bush and the Iraq war, but also by some concern over the dominant role played by Chavez and Cuban officials.
In downtown Caracas, where participants debated a plethora of issues, ranging from free trade and imperialism to the debt burden in Latin America, a banner covered four stories of a high-rise building with the words: "Bush lied, fire him."

How right you are.
They wouldn't want to let the growing evidence of WMDs in Syria get in the way. What's next after this story? "What's ol' Harry Belafonte up to this week?"....

Is it possible she is not really a woman at all, but actually a cross-dresser?
Ugly in appearance, Ugly in spirit, Ugly in soul. She puts the capitol "U" in Ugly.

To the horror of the Left, Cindy provides the overt link between the Left and Islamofascist international terrorism. The Left has done its best to sweep the connection under the rug. But bull-in-the-china-shop Cindy has undone all their careful efforts. It's funny watching the Left as it tries to sweep Cindy under the rug--but she just won't shut up!

...of course, Chavez himself is guilty of everything she's accusing the US of, but who cares?

Well, Hugo Chavez is a hero. Mama Moonbat was about to fade into obscurity and he gives her a stage and he lets her share his crowd, since she couldn't draw more than 25 in Spain and no one at her book signings.
This incredibly homely, delusional woman will now have to have media attention. The media created this ridiculous, stupid creature.
Maybe they'll give some attention to her demand to end the occupation of New Orleans...this stupid lady really said that.
The MSM wants her to go away, but she won't!!
