Ah, that explains your negativism against the Brazilian president.

For the benefit of the foreign audience: President Dilma faces fierce opposition from the Brazilian elite, because of her party's socialist reforms, in a country that historically always catered to the elites. Anything that the president does (good or bad) faces opposition, pretty similar to the opposition President Obama faces in the US.

Note how the commenter above does not say a word about the speech itself. It's all about paying so much taxes and not getting the speed rail.
