Speaking in Brasília at a joint press conference with U.K. prime minister Gordon Brown, Brazil's president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva blamed the global economic crisis on white people.

Specifically, he blamed the crisis on "white people with blue eyes." In reality, he was probably wanted to point the blame of this crisis on wealthy Americans and Europeans (probably more toward Americans). Lula da Silva said:

“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. I do not know any black or indigenous bankers so I can only say [it is wrong] that this part of mankind which is victimized more than any other should pay for the crisis."

I'm sure Gordon Brown blanched at that comment. His response:

“I’m not going to attribute blame to any individuals."

I'm so sure that Brazil is foremost on the minds of white people with blue eyes. Me, I was wondering whether to put another sawtable together at the shop or go out and cut concrete.

very astute, for if I had said anything that resembles the OP, you would probably be the first to throw out that very accusation.

It's roughly true.

Take a look at Brazil, supposedly one of the most advanced countries on that continent.

Oh hi, nice favelas.

Hey, the Brazilian president wanted to make this crisis a race thing. I was just showing how ridiculous it is for him to turn this into a race thing.

I dont think thats what you were showing. I thin you were greeted with an oppurtunity to share some of your true feeling maybe, perhaps, likely...
