Bush Visit Sparks Protests 
Violence broke out in Argentina this afternoon as more than 1000 protesters demonstrated against the Bush visit, interrupting the Summit of the Americas.
Calling Bush a fascist, and shouting "Down with Free Trade," they ignited fireworks, burned a bank, broke windows, and hurled tear gas, as 10-20 businesses were destroyed.
Bush returned to his hotel, but the Summit still plans to hold a plenary session.
Story is still uh, "breaking," even after two hours.
