Sheehan Dismisses Appeal From Cuban Dissidents' Wives

Submitted by Warrior King, Jan 10, 2007 07:58

For her to travel to Cuba as a guest of that government shows she has no other agenda but to undermine the United States and to vent her anger of President Bush. She is admittedly ignoring Cuba's human rights abuses to further her one sighted goal. By allowing herself to be a guest of the Cuban government, she is tacitly giving legitimacy to a country that has a human right's record on par with the Stalinist Soviet Union and Communist Red China under Mao.

Her failure to meet with the wives of jailed Cuban dissident's relatives proves that Cindy Sheehan is a fraud.
