It must be tough being President Bush. His vice-president's top aide is convicted of several crimes. The Aggression he staked his presidency continues to go catastrophically. His poll ratings are in the toilet. And now even the spirits reject him.
President Bush has started his 'fence-mending' tour of Latin America. Latin Americans, for their part, have reacted somewhat strongly to the visit of US leader.
He was greeted by riots in Brazil. There have also been riots in Colombia in advance of his visit.
The most amusing story comes from Guatemala, location of a genocide in the 1980s committed by a military dictatorship backed by the Reagan administration.
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," said the director of a Mayan non-governmental organization.
Maybe we can get them to purify the White House too in late January 2009.
