Bush Touts His Record(?) On Latin America--Serious,,,LOL

Reading that Claim at 6:30 am woke me up! LOL Like What Record??

"Joy Olson, who heads the advocacy group Washington Office on Latin America, said Latin Americans ``criticize Bush for having only three things to say about Latin America: Cuba, free trade, and drugs''

''Everyone recognizes that poverty and inequality are the central problems in Latin America today,'' she said. ``He mentions social justice, but has solutions like sending U.S. military doctors to treat the sick while on a tour of Latin America. That's a far cry from what Latin Americans mean by social justice.''

I guess he can go back to drinking and snorting soon. He will even believe that consuming illegal substances produced here will help some poor people...

What I have, I do not want to lose, but Where I am I do not want to stay, but those I love, I do not want to leave, but those I know I no longer want to see, but Where I die, I do not want to go;I want to stay where I have never been

As oppossed to touting his record on anything else?

Smile if you are a thinker!

He pretty much ignored Latin America for 8 years -- which would make it one of his better accomplishments (as opposed to anything he touched, which were all complete failures)

You have a point there, durito. Quitcherbitchin' Mike and thank your lucky stars that your hero ignored us. :)

He ignored Latin America for 8 years? Hell! He ignored the US for 8 years! I don't know why he doesn't just take up Iraqi citizenship, or for that matter, move to bazerkistan with Cheney!

If OBAMA gets into office, I think the US and Latin America will have a bit better relations.

Words are just words. nothing more or less, but eloquently expressed, like a symphony to Beethoven's ear, no army can defeat and no oppression can exist.

Hey, look at it this way, he hasn't invaded anywhere in Latin America.

One happy boy- Obama has two chances in the general election- Slim and None. The insulting gaffe about middle america and their beliefs in god and guns was worse than our dear ole friend the Reverend Wright..Obama will weaken this country and is in my opinion dangerous.....
