Morales and the Gringo.

Here is a video clip of Jon Stuart giving Evo Morales, the President of Bolivia, a platform in which to espouse all the wonders that Mr. Morales has been doing in his native land.

What I find disturbing is the way the audience reacts to Mr. Morales "achievements".


Jon Stuart's comment about the fact that the interpreter did not look Bolivian reinforced the stereotype of the stupid gringo who doesn't realize that not all Bolivians are full-blooded Indians.

The interpreter, by the way, did a great job.

Gateway Pundit reports on this adulatory reception of a lackey of Hugo Chavez, who is exploiting the racial and economic divide of his country.

We ought to be paying more attention to this growing resentment among the classes.
