U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell travels to Brazil Monday for talks on regional security and economic issues.
Mr. Powell plans to meet with Brazilian business leaders in Sao Paulo - Brazil's industrial center - before flying to the capital, Brasilia, for talks with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

The State Department says Mr. Powell will discuss the situation in Venezuela and bilateral cooperation on security issues and trade. He is also expected to express the United States' appreciation for Brazil's leadership of the international peacekeeping force in Haiti.

The secretary of state will leave Brazil on Wednesday.

Bush has tried to bully Argentina's President Nestor Kirchner into turning his back on Hugo Chavez, too. Too damned bad George W. Bush doesn't feel it's possible to keep his gnarly nose out of their bidness.

2. Powell! Stay home, will ya? You've already left a big enough mess
for President Kerry to clean up after you're gone.
Be a good American and just keep your big ass home until January!

3. What situation in Venezuela?
That Chavez is still President, despite all the attempts by the US to oust him?

Tell Powell to eat it.

in that oh-so polite way of his. Viva Lula Ignacio de Silva!

6. It's Too Early To Seek Asylum!
Colin Powell should wait until midnight, November 2, at the earliest, to bug out.
