  Video: Obama Meets Brazilian President
  Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva recently made headlines when he said of the Worldwide financial crisis:
  He was speaking Obama's language. Look how thrilled Obama was to meet him:
  Obama shook hands with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and said: "This is my man, right here. I love this guy." He was so taken by him he returned to disingenuously gush, "You're the most popular politician on earth…it's because of your good looks." That's when da Silva took off his glasses and stared at Obama with a WTF? look on his face.
  Oh…I think I understand the attraction, now:
  President, Luis Inácio Lula da Silva, is one of the founders of The Workers Party.
  The Workers' Party (Partido dos Trabalhadores, PT) is a center-left social-democratic political party in Brazil. It is recognized as one of the largest and most important left-wing leadership movements of Latin America.
  Democratic Socialism…Social Democracy...hmmmm….where did I read about Obama the Social Democrat, today?
  While Washington's attention is focused on the Middle East, communism and communist terrorism are threatening America's security in Latin America, where another Axis of Evil is spreading its tentacles throughout the region.Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is getting credit from the Internatinal Monetary Fund and Wall Street's useful idiots for following the orthodox economic policies of former president Fernando Cardoso while plunging his nation into communism and allying himself with Fidel Castro and Castro's puppet in Venezuela, Hugo Chavez.
  So radical is the regime under Lula that the Rio de Janeiro city council recently declared President Bush persona non grata by passing a resolution offered by Fernando Gusmao, a councilman affiliated with Brazil's Communist Party.
  Brazilian-American Gerald Brant, a writer and former candidate for Brazil's congress, wrote that "anti-American sentiment has grown so high in Brazil that President Bush received a lower approval rating among Brazilians than Saddam Hussein in an opinion poll conducted during the war in Iraq by the respected IBOPE Institute. This phenomenon has some relation to the Brazilian Workers' Party's (known as PT) attitudes towards the US."
