'Do you have any blacks?'

 

Bush meets with Brazilian president and asks
"Do you have blacks too?"
Der Spiegel May 19, 2002

Recently Bush met with Brazilian President Fernando Henrique Cardoso. Not far into the conversation, Bush asked the 71 year old statesman an unexpected question:

"Do you have blacks too?"

Condoleezza Rice was present and jumped in to save Cardoso from having to answer, informing Bush that in fact Brazil is home to more blacks than any country outside Africa.

The incident, witnessed by the White House press corps, is more proof that Bush knows nothing about the world he lives in—AND LEADS! This is terrifying!

Equally terrifying: the American media did not report the incident. There seems to be an unwritten rule that while it's okay to acknowledge Bush's lack of "intellectual curiosity," any hard evidence of utter stupidity must be covered up.
