I've been watching the tension build for months now. And then George W. Bush finally touched down on Argentine soil at 8PM last night for his first visit here. It's no surprise that protests against Bush (with a dollar sign or swastika replacing the 's' on posters) have been huge today, the first day of the international summit. I guess I'm a little surprised at the extent of US press coverage. The protests have been the lead story on most US news websites that I read:
www.nytimes.com
www.washingtonpost.com
www.chicagotribune.com
Nothing more intelligent on this to say now. I'm still humming along to tunes from Gilberto Gil...
