I guess Im in the clear. Good stuff, though: If theres anything we need more of in an age of economic terror and populist rage, its racial demagoguery. What, no Jew-baiting? President Lula said it was completely unfair that the poorest people in the world were suffering most for the mistakes of wealthy, Western financiers President Lula, head of Brazils main left-wing party, said that no black man or woman, no indigenous person, no poor person had been in any way culpable for the global banking crisis. Im not acquainted with any black banker, he said. The part of humanity thats responsible should pay for the crisis.

The president of Brazil doesnt know any black bankers? None? He may get more media attention than he bargained for from this little bon mot. Exit question: Cant we all put aside our differences and just blame Soros?

WE HAVE TO BE PACIENT WITH EUROPEANS AND NORTH AMERICANS POLITICIANS AND VOTERS. BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT IN A FEW CENTURIES THEY WILL TEACH THEIR HEIRS HOW TO KEEP THEIR WEALTH IN ANOTHER WAY THAN INVASION, WAR, INNOCENT BLOOD, SLAVERY AND HUMILIATION FOR THE REST OF HUMANITY.
