Most of these people feigning outrage at the word “sh!thole” possibly being used accurately wouldn’t blink at calling any American town without at least two Starbucks by names at least as bad.

He must have seen a big pile of cash sitting on a table next to a large quantity of cocaine.

BS Defcon 1. Haiti is the armpit of the Americas. Just look at a satellite picture of the island of Hispanola. One can easily identify the boundary between Haiti and the Dominican Republic by the complete denuding of the forest on the Haiti side. Haiti has a per-capita GDP of $1,800 compared to $15,900 for the Dominican Republic. The next poorest country in the Americas is Honduras and Nicaragua at $5,000. The people of Haiti have not developed from the East African region they were imported from. I read a book about economic development and the author noted Haiti has the exact same level of development as the region of Africa they came form. Nice to talk about culture if you don’t have to eat literally mud pies.

Yep, time to break out the BIG LIE. Michael Moore and CNN told people that Cuba is a beautiful country full of artists and free healthcare that is superior to our and people just ate that load of garbage up. OK, it’s a little dirtier and less modern that most of the USA. In other words, it’s just like our cities, so the lie goes. College students (or usually their parents) pay thousands of dollars per quarter to live in rental houses or dorms that look like Animal House, squalor is just what hipsters want and gravitate to. Anderson Cooper can go suck an egg.

I have a friend who is a doctor belonging to Doctors without borders. He went to Haiti to train women to be nurses. He had a very hard time getting them not to spit on the floor. If they were pregnant,they thought it would harm the baby to swallow it.

Looks like they are disturbed at the sh*thole accommodations they’re going to have to stay in while on their photo-op to Haiti.

““It’s the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, but a country can be poor economically and rich in culture and rich in the strength of the people and rich in so many different ways,” Cooper said.”

And you, Anderson, are a very big many for a midget!

... "Haiti" was the only "s**t-hole country" mentioned by name.

All of the other countries who subsequently complained about being insulted were, in essence, reprising Curly Howard's "I resemble that remark!" reply.

Like the pastor who, during his sermon, decries adultery - whereupon some noted members of the congregation suddenly stand up and claim that they feel "offended" for being singled out, although no one mentioned them by name.

They are revealing that, in their inmost heart, they share that same opinion of themselves - by freeper alexander_busek.

Busek has a clue - Cooper has none...

Perhaps they can eat their culture.

I won’t have any, thanks. I don’t care for how it smells, and that’s usually a good sign I won’t like the flavor.
