Chávez rally in Buenos Aires: "Gringo, go home!"

...

Argentina and Venezuela

i thought briefly about going, but, like i said before, political rallies with tens of thousands of people, even if they ARE anti-bush, don't hold much interest for me...
Argentina provided the microphone, the stadium and thousands of fired-up spectators in the mood to hear some thunderous, fist-pumping, anti-American sloganeering. Venezuela's Hugo Chávez took care of the rest.

As President Bush visited Brazil and Uruguay on Friday as part of a six-day tour of Latin America, Chávez tried to steal his thunder by staging an anti-Bush rally in a soccer stadium filled with Venezuelan flags, Che Guevara banners and signs saying: "Bush Get Out!"

particularly when some guy is going to SPEAK for two hours...
