Bush now faces stiff headwinds wherever he goes. He is the most unpopular president in modern times and no one is hoodwinked by his silly promises to help the poor and needy. It’s just a shabby excuse to mollify the public.
“We care about our neighborhood a lot," Bush purred in Brazil.
Nonsense.
Latin America has withstood 2 decades of neoliberal policies and they’ve had enough. The continents are drifting further and further apart and it’ll take more than Bush’s bland assurances to bring them back together.
"I would call our diplomacy quiet and effective diplomacy,” Bush opined. “Diplomacy aimed at helping people, aimed at elevating the human condition, aimed at expressing the great compassion of the American people."
Blah, blah, blah.
Does Bush think these people are complete fools? They’ve lived under America’s boot-heel and they know exactly what to expect--death squads, coup d’etats, fixed elections, and corrupt government officials-- all made in Washington. They also know that Bush’s promises are just more hot air. After all, they’ve seen the footage of the poor, black people being shunted off to the Superdome without food or water following Hurricane Katrina.
Bush’s “Goodwill Tour” is a total fraud. It’s just a smokescreen for more coercion, meddling and gross exploitation. That’s why tens of thousands of protestors have poured out onto the streets burning American flags, waving posters of a Hitler-mustachioed Bush, and chanting “Gringo go home”.
Bush’s trip has been such a catastrophe that the politically-sensitive Google News has removed it as a headline story. The media would like to see the whole thing just disappear. Still, Bush’s handlers have decided to continue the fiasco; running from foxhole to foxhole behind a phalanx of flack-jacketed paramilitaries and low-flying Apache helicopters.
Whew……That was close.
Viva Chavez.

Note: http://www.informationc...

Chavez should be pointing his finger at Canadas Prime Minister. We have elected a man who wanted Canada in Iraq and now sanctions the invasion of Afghanistan. This is on the pretence of bring good to the Afghani by forcing them to accept western values. Harper want's a huge military and do the American strut. Standing on the outside and looking in should have given him better judgement. The fact that it didn't, makes Harper a true hypocrite.

Firstly they are organised into that which they are while we are "Individualsts"<br />
No man is a island???<br />
Fuck YEAH! that is todays Malady! <br />
Each man IS an Island in the Matrix<br />
We live in illusion with phoney money, bogus law supported by zero-sum logic.<br />
<br />
<br />
"Harper a true hypocrite." <br />
But what of us?<br />
What are we?<br />
That is thequestion I do not see addressed here, and "Why?" I ask<br />
<br />
is it because it is far simpler to assign rather than accept?<br />
<br />
The concept of individualist thinking (That of those inside the matrix) gives permission to the elite to lay down the crap they do.<br />

Fragmentation is our bane.<br />

For Canadians, it must be. Harper is at his acme and will most probably be re-elected. No one see's what they don't want to see. The dog knew it well!
