    I thought he was good... Borat always seemed to me to be an interesting way to unearth how banal and rampant racism and bigotry in America is. His IDF character in Who Is America I thought was there to highlight how psychotic Israeli Zionism is... Guess I was wrong. What other shitty things has he done?

      Remember Borat's home town in Kazakhstan? It was a Roma village he conned and made a mockery of; they were justifiably upset. If I recall correctly, I believe he also traveled there with guards who treated the populace pretty harshly.
