Are Argentinians going to die for our voting mistake?

[kpete]

Could it be that they are angrier than we are at our American government? It is a nightmare down there. Someone needs to lock Bush up and SOON!!!

1. Funny, I thought along similiar lines

We are too cowed to ever be in the streets and do any damage. Ahh..I know I'm a rebel trapped in a stay at home mom's bod. And that was the think I thought after Kerry's concession speech last year-he sounds like he doesn't want us to riot in the streets! (oh well-at least there are no tanks in the streets) Don't die for me, Argentina.

2. Typical ethnocentric statement

The protestors for the most part are raging against globalization, not against Bush himself. Do you think they were protesting our "voting mistake" when they were doing the same thing in the 90s?

The whole world does not revolve around American politics, believe it or not.

3. Why would anyone be willing to allow him into your country?

The man is or should be an international pariah.

Cry for me, Argentina

Thank you, people of Argentina, for opposing Bush and his crimes against humanity

I want to say "thank you" to the people of Argentina for opposing George W. Bush and everything he stands for. He is _NOT_ a representitive of what Americans are all about. He is a mass murdering butcher, a Christian extremist who is committing crimes against humanity.

Your protests against this butcher is a good and proper thing to do. From the news I see coming from Argentina, the massive protests against Bush have sought to focus on the fact that Bush is the problem, not the American people.

For that I thank you. The people of Argentina are not against Americans, not opposed to Americans, and don't hate Americans. Only George W. Bush and his fellow war criminals.

In fact, the people of Argentina have specifically covered the fact that the American people are also victims of the brutal, fascist regime. And for that I thank you.

The American Capitalist media has been trying to paint the massive protests against Bush and his atrocities as if they were against the American people. The news media here is trying to pretend that the people of Argentina hate Americans.

Those of us in the United States who pay attention know otherwise. We know that the whole world hates only George W. Bush and his fellow criminals.

Please keep up the protests. We'll win this one.
