While in San Paulo on Thursday, several folks noted their dismay with President Bush with demnstrations. Agreements were reached on alcohol production as a bio-fuel, but challenges to US foreign policy and the lack of commitment to human and economic rights were expressed by citizens. The news is flush with comments regarding the "rumble on the river," where Venezuela President Hugo Chavez is speaking in Buenos Aires and noting the lack of attention the US has given South Americans while President Bush is across the river in Montevideo, Uruguay outlining US aid and development policy.
