We now have a culprit in the global financial mess. Many thought it was caused by liberal politicians who forced banks to make loans based on ethnicity instead of ability to repay, and by ACORN thugs like Barack Obama who enforced these insane policies with lawsuits and other intimidation tactics. Thanks to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac having bought protection from the Democrat Party, the inevitable crisis was not addressed until it became huge enough to bring down the entire US economy, which is pulling the rest of the world down after it. But Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, President of Brazil, reveals the surprising truth:

Brazil's President, while meeting Gordon Brown, has said the global financial crisis was caused by "white people with blue eyes".

It was reportedly an "uncomfortable" moment for Gordon Brown. He's been having a lot of those lately, not only while visiting moonbat bureaucrats in the New World, but back in Europe too.

But at least Brown has a solution to the global crisis. He wants to throw more money at it.
