The Bush-bashing "Peace Mom" Cindy Sheehan will join leading third-world America-hater Hugo Chavez on Tuesday, when the two team up to address the 6th World Social Forum in Caracas, Venezuela.

Sheehan and Chavez will headline a list of yet-to-be-announced speakers from places like Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan, and Colombia, according to the web site VHeadline.com.

The Forum will officially commence after a 2-day street festival, which began on Sunday, Vheadline says.

"Tens of thousands" of Chavez and Sheehan's fans helped kick off the event by staging a march under the slogan "Contra la Guerra y Contra el Imperio" (Against the War and Against the Empire).

  When Sheehan and Chavez finally meet, they'll undoubtedly discover they have much in common. The "Peace Mom," for instance, has already denounced President Bush as the world's "biggest terrorist."

The same sentiment delighted Chavez two weeks ago when it was uttered by visiting America-bashing calypso singer harry Belafonte.

Other Sheehan chestnuts likely to be rolled out for Chavez's amusement include:

• "America has been killing people on this continent since it was started. This country is not worth dying for..." • "We have this lying bastard, George Bush, taking a 5-week vacation in a time of war."

• "When I was growing up, it was Communists. Now it's Terrorists. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so the war machine can build more bombs, guns, and bullets and everything."

• "You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you'll stop the terrorism."

• "George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans."

When she's done entertaining the America-haters in Caracas, perhaps Mother Sheehan can find time for an audience with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
