Evo Morales: Not Cool

Apparently Bolivia’s president gave the Iranian president a reception with military honors:

Ahmadinejad shores up support in Bolivia, Venezuela

If you don’t like the U.S., well OK, but the last time I was in Bolivia (last August, actually) I don’t remember any Bolivians expressing support for the imposition of a Shi’ite Muslim theocracy in the Andes.

I never got the sweater thing, but that was pretty harmless. But linking up with Iran? No sir, I don’t like it.

Also, the Bolivians might want to consider a new military uniform to replace those 1847 models they’re still wearing. I guess they’re just really into the look of British dudes from the Crimean War.
