BRASILIA, Brazil — Undeterred by a setback at the Summit of the Americas, President Bush on Sunday renewed his drive for hemispheric free trade, declaring that open markets would energize economies and foster social justice at a time when some in Latin America sought to “roll back the democratic progress of the past two decades.”

Bush did not name names, but senior administration officials said he was referring to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, a fiery populist with Marxist leanings who blames the United States for a variety of ills in the region.

n a 22-minute speech to several hundred students, opinion leaders and businesspeople, Bush decried Latin American leaders who, he said, were "playing to fear, pitting neighbor against neighbor, and blaming others for their own failures to provide for their people."

My bolding.

And he said it with a straight face. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
