Priests to purify site after Bush visit
GUATEMALA CITY - Mayan priests will purify a sacred archaeological site to eliminate "bad spirits" after
President Bush visits next week, an official with close ties to the group said Thursday.

"That a person like (Bush), with the persecution of our migrant brothers in the United States, with the wars he has provoked, is going to walk in our sacred lands, is an offense for the Mayan people and their culture,"...

B8sh is unequivocally the worst president ever.

He is going to Uruguay to check on his secret ranch and military base, to ensure his ability to quash all opposition he may later face once the horrible things he and his father have done to us and our nation are finally revealed.

Get out FASCISTS!

1. We need to invite them up north to purify Washington DC, although fumigation is more like it,
if we can ever get these filthy criminals and their Democratic enablers dislodged.

The Mayans have reason to be concerned. TWO-HUNDRED THOUSAND Mayan villagers were slaughtered in Guatemala with Reagan's direct complicity, and one of Reagan's chief thugs is now Undersecretary of State for Latin America, John "death squad" Negroponte. Bush the Enforcer is delivering the message of the Global Corporate Predators in person this week. If the Left keeps winning elections in Latin America, with consequent policies of, by and for the people, that require US-based Global Corporate Predators to compete on fair terms, and to operate in the public interest, blood will flow. It's all set up with Colombia's fascist paramilitaries, chief beneficiaries of billions of dollars in military aid (checks written against our future tax dollars), even as both the Colombian and Guatemalan governments are rocked by huge scandals about rightwing paramilitary drug trafficking, murder and political assassinations (including a plot uncovered in the Colombian paramilitaries to assassinate Huge Chavez). This is Bush's preferred form of government--mayhem, torture, mass murder and oppression.

So the Mayan priests have some truly evil spirits to deal with. Guatemala has been drenched in bloodshed, in a civil war that was only recently ended, by a UN-sponsored "Truth and Reconciliation" Commission. Frankly, I had no idea of the scale of the horror perpetrated by Reagan, and, until you understand it, you cannot really understand current events in Latin America, nor the amazing accomplishments of the people of Latin America, in rising up from these horrors and peacefully establishing democratic governments that are trying to achieve social justice, fairness and self-determination. Bush is seeking actively to undermine their unity, and their efforts at regional cooperation and strength in numbers. His clear intent in visiting Brazil and Uruguay was to drive a wedge between them and the Andean democracies (Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela), to prevent development of a South American "Common Market." But the underlying threat of violence is the real message. Kowtow, or else. It's ugly. It's Bush. And a whole lot of cleansing and solicitation of the good spirits will be needed in his sulfuric wake.

2. Bush and his damn wedges
"Bush is seeking actively to undermine their unity, and their efforts at regional cooperation and strength in numbers."

Bush is again saying one thing (I'm a uniter) and doing the opposite.

In Latin America and everywhere else!

Bush, King of Double Speak, or just Chimp King? What a disgrace to America and Humanity in general.
