un_brazil_luiz_inacio_lula_da_silvalula_175_23Sep08.jpgThe UN General Assembly is bringing Latin American leaders and has them speaking on a diverse range of topics of interest to their country people and the world at large. Evo Morales of Bolivia criticized the United States and it's hypocritical stance on terrorism. Others, like Argentina's Cristina Fernandez de Kircher, took the opportunity to strengthen their colonial claims.

GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is also at the UN General Assembly and yet she's only meeting one Latin American leader. Can you guess which one?


Pues claro, the U.S's token Latin American ally, Colombia and it's president Alvaro Uribe.

This is how much the McCain/Palin ticket care about Latin America.

They are said to discuss free trade and the war on drugs.
