CINDY UNLEASHED: 'THE BIGGEST TERRORIST IN THE WORLD IS GEORGE W. BUSH'

"We are not waging a war on terror in this country. We’re waging a war of terror. The biggest terrorist in the world is George W. Bush!"

So declared Cindy Sheehan earlier this year during a rally at San Francisco State University.

Sheehan, who is demanding a second meeting with Bush, stated: "We are waging a nuclear war in Iraq right now. That country is contaminated. It will be contaminated for practically eternity now."

Sheehan unleashed a foul-mouth tirade on April 27, 2005:

"They’re a bunch of fucking hypocrites! And we need to, we just need to rise up..." Sheehan said of the Bush administration.

"If George Bush believes his rhetoric and his bullshit, that this is a war for freedom and democracy, that he is spreading freedom and democracy, does he think every person he kills makes Iraq more free?"

"The whole world is damaged. Our humanity is damaged. If he thinks that it’s so important for Iraq to have a U.S.-imposed sense of freedom and democracy, then he needs to sign up his two little party-animal girls. They need to go to this war."

"We want our country back and, if we have to impeach everybody from George Bush down to the person who picks up dog shit in Washington, we will impeach all those people."

The theater ones are great! Thanks Indybay.

This sounds like still more black propaganda from the right.

By ''US'' I mean those of us that have been consistently against the war whether it's been the Afghan Front or the Iraqi front. Moveon (or at least their unelected leaders ) were trying to ignore the war up until a couple of months ago . It's not at all clear if they're calling for ''TROOPS OUT NOW ''. I doubt it . Despite the silly redbaiting from FOX , labeling MOVEON.ORG as ''far left '' they're a wholly owned subsidary of the Democrat party who's leaders call for ''winning the war'' despite their tactical sniping at the White House . (And as for Afghanistan , forget about it ! They're 100% for continuing that imperialist adventure ) But we should give credit where it's due . 1600 vigils across the country is a impressive feat . For our part we should redouble our efforts to make sure we get a million peole on the streets come SEPT. 24 .

When was the last time vigils stopped a war?

That would be "candles", not "candals", for those of you keeping score at home.

I grew up a mile from this theater and went to it frequently as a child in the late 50s-early 60s. It was so moving to see this message on the marquee-I was tearing up as I looked at it. I usually think of my childhood home as a place that didn't include much of this kind of way of looking at the world. It's heartening to see it differently.

I so wish that Bush could receive boxes of pictures just like this that were taken all over the country last night, and that they would finally have an impact on him.
