In light of the results of Bolivia's election, lefties are flocking to Twitter to make jokes about the CIA.
A year ago, Bolivia's democratically elected socialist leader, Evo Morales, resigned and left the country amid police and military pressure and now-debunked allegations of fraud. Between then and now, the country has been run by a conservative, U.S.-backed interim regime. On Monday, Bolivia held another election, and Morales’s party has won, yet again, with his rival conceding to his win. It's all pretty gratifying to leftists all over the world, who saw the handling of Morales's original resignation as a sign of a right-wing coup.
