That fun "Thomas Friedman Column Generator"
with a classic "based" on his "visit" to Brazil. See if you can tell it from the real thing. Sample below. (h/t Tim Page)
When I was in Brazil last month, I was amazed by the variety
of the local cuisine, and that tells me two things. It tells me that
the citizens of Brazil have no shortage of potential entrepreneurs, and
that is a good beginning to grow from. Second, it tells me that people
in Brazil are just like people anywhere else on this flat earth of ours.
So what should we do about the chaos in Brazil? Well, it's
easier to start with what we should not do. We should not lob a handful
of cruise missiles and hope that some explosions will snap Brazil's
leaders to attention. Beyond that, we need to be careful to nurture the
fragile foundations of peace. The opportunity is there, but I worry that
the path to peace is so strewn with obstacles that Brazil will have to
move down it very slowly. And of course Brasilia needs to come to the
table.
