As expected, Anti-Bush protests have begun

In South American-style, the protests are in full swing in Brazil. Bush is on a tour of Latin America, and is visiting the country of Brazil today. The two presidents are holding talks about a possible energy alliance, and the future of ethanol as an alternative energy.

This is what I picked up from CNN-

“Bush and the United States go to war to control oil reserves, and now Bush and his pals are trying to control the production of ethanol in Brazil. And that has to be stopped,” said Suzanne Pereira dos Santos, an activist with Brazil’s Landless Workers Movement.

Graffiti reading “Get Out, Bush! Assassin!” appeared on walls near the locations Bush will drive past as he begins a Latin American tour that also includes stops in Uruguay, Colombia, Guatemala and Mexico.

Bush will not visit Argentina. However, leftist Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez will travel to Buenos Aires to lead protests against Bush on Friday.
