Well, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=t7K2HdFZiKw\">in one interview she said<\/a> she would rather live in a country like Venezuela under Hugo Chavez. That&#8217;s right. The same Hugo Chavez who yesterday shut down the only nationally broadcast television station that was critical of his administration. That&#8217;s correct. Cindy Sheehan supports a communist dictator who opposes freedom of speech.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that Sheehan is freely using her rights of free speech in the U.S. to condemn President Bush as a terrorist and murder while the people in Venezuela (where she would rather live) do not have those same rights. Sheehan lives in Bizzaro world.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Sheehan, you said we can&#8217;t be that country unless we want it. Watch what is happening in Venezuela.
