Brazil’s leader blames "white people with blue eyes" for economic crisis

[SpiritAlight 1]

Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on Thursday blamed the global economic crisis on “white people with blue eyes” and said it was wrong that black and indigenous people should pay for white people’s mistakes.

Speaking in Brasília at a joint press conference with Gordon Brown, the UK prime minister, Mr Lula da Silva told reporters: “This crisis was caused by the irrational behaviour of white people with blue eyes, who before the crisis appeared to know everything and now demonstrate that they know nothing.”

...

Mr Brown appeared to distance himself from Mr Lula da Silva’s remarks. “I’m not going to attribute blame to any individuals,” he said.

I say bring back the hottie that used to drive his Ferrari in closed areas of Rio or Sao Paulo.

Collor de Mello, FTW!!!

he!! no. he was impeached.

Still am of the opinion he was mostly a scapegoat 'cus he didn't have the senate on his side. If you think about it, what happened in Lula's government and all the corruption was way worse and a lot more money in play, and yet he goes free and gets reelected. And people wonder why we badmouth our own population. Kills me when I still hear certain people defending him and PT.
