Bush's Spring Break to South America

President Bush has a trip planned for the next six days in South America. I read some articles on the trip from msnbc.com and crosswalk.com. Both news sites agrees that the president has neglected Latin American relations because of the war in Iraq. I think president Bush needs to learn how to manage his time. Hes been spending all his time vacationing over in Iraq and he forgot all the wonderful things about South America.

Unfortunately I do not think that this trip to South America will help the relations with the governments there at all. The people down there hate America and specifically Bush. I of course agree that they have more than good reason to hate us and our glorious leader. If Bush keeps on what he is doing to South America we could easily be invading Venezuela next year because they have threats of weapons to harm us. They'll probably have aluminum tubes or some other scary stuff like that.

Now of course there is some good that can come out of Mr Bush's trip down there. He will stir up some relations with Brazil and the alternative fuel projects. Brazil has more than enough corn and sugarcane products there to fuel our ethanol projects. He also plans to stop in Columbia to make negotiations regarding the drug trade. All good stuff right? Well most of the time Bush will be followed by countless protests that claim America to be imperialistic and imposing their will on everyone around the world. Along with that the Venezuelan President has his own counter tour of the continent to coincide with the Presidents.

I think the President needs to stop imposing his will on everyone and stop making everyone want to have a democracy. I mean democracy works but other forms of government can work just as well in other parts of the world. I hope the next president will do a better job keeping the United States in the good graces of the rest of the world. I think anyone will be more liked around the world than George Bush.
