Sheehan: 'I'd Rather Live Under Chavez than Bush'

NewsBusters reports As James Taranto suggested Monday in his WSJ 'Best of the Web' column, at some point you can question a person's patriotism. Cindy Sheehan surely crossed that Rubicon long ago. But just in case there was any doubt, Sheehan made things perfectly clear this evening, flatly stating that she'd rather live under Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez than George Bush.

Then she should move to Venezuela. It is a nice country, and I visited it a number of times while working on a project there (this was before Chavez). I don't think I would want to go there now, but if Cindy prefers to live there, we would be happy to see her go.

Blue Crab blogged Cindy Sheehan has well and truly jumped the shark if Norah O'Donnell, sitting in for Chris Matthews on Hardball can't stand her. Newsbusters' Mark Finkelstein asks if this is a hint to Democrats to disassociate themselves from Sheehan. I think it would be a good idea to carry a chicken leg to every appearance Sheehan makes and just wave it at her. She'll crack.
