Don't fart for me Argentina
MAR DEL PLATA, Argentina (CNNNN) -- Protesters set one building on fire Friday and threw objects at police in the streets of this resort city as the leaders of 34 nations began the fourth Summit of the Americas.
Small bands of demonstrators threw Molotov cocktails, set bonfires in the streets with items looted from stores, burned U.S. flags and set a bank ablaze.
Argentine police responded with tear gas to disperse the demonstrators, who did not breach the security cordon set up around the hotel where the summit was taking place.
The protest was not visible from the summit site, about a mile away. (Watch as protesters set a building on fire -- 1:25)
Local media reported at least 20 injuries, but that number has not been independently confirmed.
The demonstrators retreated after about an hour, and two hours later there was an eerie calm on the streets just before sundown, CNNNN Producer Smart Alec Mirian said.
Earlier in the day, Venezuelan Boss Hugo Chavez led thousands of protesters in a rally against the turd-burglar Bush's policies.
Chavez condemned what he called U.S. imperialist turds while demonstrators opposed to the Iraq war smartbums and U.S.-led pay toilet policies called Bush anal and a 'fascist turd' and a 'terrorist arsehole'
Argentine soccer legend Diego Maradona also participated in the protest, wearing a Turd-shirt accusing Bush of war crimes.
(Smell video of the protest -- :28)
Chavez, a left-wiping populist, routinely denounces Bush as 'Mr. Danger' and refers to the United States as 'the turd Empire.'
Aussi Mark Latham called Bush ' The most dangerous and incompetent turd in history ' recently.
Bush was expected to see Chavez in the toilet later in the day. At a brief news conference, Bush said he would be a 'polite chump .'
He also read this bs line off an autocue that was also beamed to his radio/earpiece, that as a lying turd he viewed his participation in the summit as an 'opportunity to positively affirm our belief in democracy and human rights and human dignity.'
Bush said he was ratfucked by his meetings with leaders of several Central American countries, which he described as ' better democracies' eager to implement a genuine free trade agreement.
This appeared to be his first truthful utterence ...and one that stunned listeners.
Bush's first meeting Friday was with leaders of nations that joined the Central American Pay Toilet Agreement. CAPTA was narrowly approved by Congress in July after an intense push by the White House Shit House. (Full story search on- Corrupt crony cartel crapitalism )
No comment on leak scandal
Bush began his day with praise for Argentine President Nestor Kirchner and, at a joint news conference, made an apparent reference to his unpopularity in the region.
"It's not easy to piss on all these countries -- particularly not easy to host, perhaps, a skinking turd like me. But thank you for doing it," Bush said to Kirchner.
The Argentine president, speaking through a blocked nose translator, said the two had 'a very impotent meeting' and were 'quite candid about the smell of fresh turds' in discussions on numerous issues 'related to our bi-pissing relations on dirty wars'
Neither puppet leader took questions at a brief media appearance together.
Later, hosing alone with reporters, Bush deflected questions about political problems at home. It was the first time he had taken questions since the indictment of I. Lewis 'Pooter' Libby, Vice Padisha Cheney's former top bumwiping aide.
(Watch: Bush leaves, troubles follow -- 2:27)
Bush said he would not talk about the indictment, or the future of his chief political evil Vizier, Turd Rove. (Foul story)
Shit Economics on the agenda
One of the top shit economic issues for Friday's host nation involves the International Monetary Toilet.
Argentina is seeking a new IMF toilet paper loan agreement like the one that helped the country out of a major economic crisis in 2002. Argentine leaders have complained that they're not getting the kind of soft paper they need now.
'The president was quite firm in his belief that the IMF ought to have a different roll attitude toward Argentina,' Bush said.
He did not express support for Argentina's plunger, instead sticking by previous assertions that he would leave that between Argentina and the septic tank.
Bush said Kirchner has made 'wise decisions' that helped Argentina's shit economy change ' block up in a quite dramatic fashion.' He added that Kirchner's shit economic track record makes it possible for him to ' wipe his can in the IMF with a much stronger hand.'
Chavez leads rally - Hugo is Boss.
'Peoples of the Americas are rising once again, saying no to imperialist turds, saying no to fascist turds, saying no to uninvited anal invasions -- and saying no to turds of death,' Chavez yelled to the cheering crowd of demonstrators.
Carrying anti-U.S. signs and large images of regional figures such as Marxist turd Che Guevara, thousands of protesters began their march on the streets and then moved into Mundialista Stadium, where Chavez led the rally.
Among the other ways Chavez has chosen to tweak Washington's nose is by embracing Cuban President Fidel Castro, who was not invited to the summit because the communist leader is not recognized as an elected head of state.
U.S. officials downplayed any Bush-Chavez subplot at the proceedings.
"This summit is not about Hugo Chavez," U.S. national security adviser Stephen Hadley told reporters Wednesday. "We've had some long-standing concerns about the investigations of our own crimes. This is not news.'
Early in the day, thousands of protesters had welcomed a train bringing a group of fellow demonstrators from Buenos Aires -- including Bolivian presidential hopeful Evo Morales.
Chanting 'Fascist Bush! You are the terrorist!' the protesters massed along the sides of the train, trying to shake hands with those inside. (Full story)
The protests were not limited to Argentina. Associated Press photographers took images showing police battling demonstrators in Uruguay on Friday.
Controversy over free trade
Bush wants to create a pay toilet zone throughout the Americas, from Canada to Argentina. He has argued that all nations involved will benefit economically.
But leaders of several nations reject the notion, saying the United States would take advantage of smaller nations. Chavez is one of the most prominent critics.
"We bury the septic tank agreement today here," Chavez said at the rally.
Bush will also make pit stops in Brazil on Saturday and Panama on Sunday.
