Cindy Sheehan makes Socialist run for Calif. governor slot
[WASHINGTONTIMES] Liberal activist Cindy Sheehan, the activist mother of a slain Iraq solider who ran as the vice presidential candidate for the Peace and Freedom Party
Wow! They're still around? I thought for sure they'd go out of business just as soon as medical marijuana law was passed. Silly me.
Leftist causes come and go, but leftist organizations always survive...
alongside Roseanne Barr, announced last week that she's throwing her hat in the ring for a shot at being the next governor of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,.
California is already rocketing to the left, but somehow Ms. Sheehan can find a way to step on the gas, I guess.
Speaking at a Green Party rally in Wisconsin, Miss Sheehan proudly declared that she's a Socialist, and she's "not going to be ashamed to say it," EAGnews.org first reported.

"One of my biggest inspirations is His Excellency President-for-Life, Caudillo of the Bolivarians Hugo Chavez of Venezuela," she added, receiving applause. "He convinced [citizens] that they could take power into their own hands and work with him to improve their own lives, and that's what happened."

"And so that's my inspiration. Getting everybody involved," she said.
If you wanna get everybody involved, you should probably lose the socialist tag.
Miss Sheehan didn't get into specifics on her plan for Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, but said, "If you're not happy, why do you keep voting for those [expletives]?"

According to EAGnews, the event was sponsored by the nonprofit Liberty Tree Foundation. It featured AFT-Wisconsin's Bryan Kennedy, Code Pink
... a U.S. anti-war group. The group describes itself as a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, stop new wars, and redirect our resources into healthcare, education, green jobs and other life-affirming activities. It was founded in 2002 by Jodie Evans, Medea Benjamin and of the other usual antiwar suspects. Its website lists hysterical allegations of US war crimes, and states that thousands of civilians were killed in Fallujah in 2004. Maybe it was millions. Benjamin was a 2000 candidate for the U.S. Senate on the Green Party ticket. She lost...

#3  Gravestone? She hasn't stopped digging him up to suck a little bit more life out of him yet. A gravestone would just get in the way.
