Now that they are inducting another sock puppet....they battle of who will be the puppet master will be down the road in the not too distant future. Odd how people like morales can rise to tribe leader and in argentina, la campora beats and kills them.

But the Little Bird did promise it you know!

Complete load of losers in Mercosur and Pepe needs to get on with the expansion of trade to the USA with or without the permission of MS.

OMG! Who would have thunk this would happen!!! What a truly glorious day..........for the utterly backward and anti democratic.
Another step forward for dictrocracy.
Though I think Chief morales is a step backward even for mercosur. Not like they are without infighting currently, but I can hardly wait to see it expand

@4 It wasn't bold. Having had argieland and Brazil act illegitimately to get Venezuela in, it's Venezuela's “turn” to hold the presidency. Of course, a fair and intelligent organisation would tell Venezuela to wait until the presidency to go round one more time AFTER Paraguay is reinstated!
