The image of Argentine President Cristina Fernandez has fallen at 25.5%, to its lowest positive, very distant from the over 54% she enjoyed last November, following her sweeping re-election, according to a public opinion poll from consultants Management & Fit released over the weekend.

    Perhaps people are tired of:

    * lack of accepting responsibility
    * Increase in crime
    * Lack of products due to import restrictions (to get U$ dollars)
    * U$ dollars restrictions
    * Massive inflation
    * government corruption
    * Chronic lies to the people
    I mean, other than that, I can't imagine why she is lower in the polls?

    Mayhap the Argentinians are pissed off by the fact that she answered questions to strangers at Harvard but does not think she needs talk or answer questions to her own people to back home!

    C'mon TTT and all ya trolls - this is an outright lie, and only the INDEC (according to which CFK probably still enjoys a 54% support from the population, if not more) tells the truth right, and this poll is again orchestrated by the corrupt European racist wannabe medias.
    Will this right wing propaganda ever end?

    Interesting. A certain BK had plenty to say on other articles, but nothing to say on how unpopular his “goddess” is. Have they had a tiff? Is he overcome at the lack of understanding shown by the population of argieland? Is he sat behind his keyboard trying to think of how to explain that US$113 million is hardly anything. Barely enough to cover a “girl's” shoe bill. And what's wrong with owning a few hotels? One needs somewhere to stay when away from home. And who could care about a few little white lies? Like those about the rate of inflation, the dollar clamp, the state of the railways, the amount of poverty, the amount of public debt, the economy, corruption in public office, justice, how to start a dynasty, the Falkland Islands, everything else, everywhere else, everyone else!

    The link at the bottom of this message will take you to a video. It will show you the type of forum Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner is used to speaking in. A “political” rally which her government organized, where she just talks about herself, all she's done for the people and gets thousands of people to clap, cheer and wave banners in her support. She's not able to hold any other type of forum. And the people attending? Who are they? Poor people who live in shantytowns (villas) as we call them, who are paid between 20-50 pesos to attend, they get served a sausage sandwich (called Choripan) and given cheap wine (that comes in cardboard packs called Tetra). Then they show this on television for days and days with all the people cheering for her to make it looks like she has all of this political support! This are true corrupt Argentine poltics.......a political forum at Harvard is way TOO much for Cristina!.......

    She never lost my support and she will be president again do to lack of alternatives. You can all quote me on this, CFK will be president again do to the none existent competition. And there is nothing literally nothing anyone or any newspaper can do about it, just cry us a river as Brits usually do everyday here in mercopress. We Argentine love CFK even if the rest of the world doesn't like her because fortunately for us Argentina's Self determination is a universal right not just a privilege for the English only. Besides CFK is way less corrupt then UK, UN, WTO and IMF, we are good no need for outsiders to interfere. THANKS BUT,NO THANKS!

    She didn’t so much answer questions at Harvard, as insult the questioners and give childish replies.

    This one incident more than any highlights what a poor quality political operator she is. Her supporters can always argue away the mismanagement of the economy based on questionable data, but there is no getting away from the fact that at Harvard she was incapable of answering soft questions from students and resorted to insulting the questioners, certain Argentine educational establishments and the intelligence of anyone listening.

    Those paranoid Argies who believe that the US/UK is out to destroy Argentina must surely question who she is playing for. She is a one-woman own-goal machine.

    Classic “shoot the messenger” tactic.

    The bloody woman lied in her teeth with every “answer” she gave!!!!

    Watching the action at Georgetown and Harvard made me litterally squirm with embarrassment over the incredible stone faced lying of our president. It also made me envious of the Falkland Islanders who are living in a place that:

    Has 2% inflation instead of 25%.
    Has no “cepo cambiario”.
    Has almost no crime.
    Has a stable currency.
    Has a group of spokespersons who talk sense.
    Has full democracy.

    Whilst thinking about all that, I also thought that if the Falkland Islands had a railway, it would probably run on time and not kill the passangers!!!!

    #7 I rather be an Argentine asshole then a british murderer of Muslim innocent women and children, I am glad we got that clear.
    #8 yes the British slaves of fakland company can deside to become Argentine's or go back to their home land UK by themselves, that is if UK allows them back home. Lol good luck with that to all unwanted english subjects.
    #9 if you pay attention to the anti Argentine's and the english chances are that nothing you say can be taken seriously and everything you say will sound funny, there is just to many anty Argentine comedians out there.
    #10 can a childish bable be taken seriously??? No I don't think so.
    #11 there in no wall in Argentina only China build one to keep Europeans out and in Germany the Europeans build it to keep eachother out, the Europeans built one in USA to keep the locals from reclaiming their lands. bad choice of words. Better luck next time.
    #12 the rules are the same for everyone fakland corporation can go back to UK ASAP and the unwanted british bastards can become Argentine or go back to their home land UK. Other then that we will have to hunt them down or set rat poison to get rid of the pessty brits as they do to innocent Muslim women and children.

    Analysis of the poll for all the Malvanistas who cannot understand the implications (Malvanistas are the trolling idiots not the likes of Simon68 and others).

    “According to the poll, 15.2% of those interviewed admitted having attended the protest against the Argentine government,”
    When I was responsible, among other things, for the customer service department in a major white goods manufacturer we knew one thing for certain: for every one dissatisfied customer there were at least 10 others who did not bother to complain. She is getting close to 100% dissatisfaction here.

    “while 64.7% said they did not go out to the streets”
    This is clearly because they fear the crime ridden streets and lack of personal security.

    “and 19.4% admitted they could not go, but would have liked to participate.”
    This makes it more or less total dissatisfaction with some element of the government.

    The problem is not knowing that reasonable people are unhappy with what is happening, that is self-evident, but what to do about it. Perhaps Simon68 is close to the answer in 15), but that would result in three presidents.

    Is one President and two VP’s the answer, can the constitution allow for that?

    Sorry, I was forgetting it was the Argentine Constitution - for a moment there I thought it was something that mattered.

    We Argentine support CFK 100% and we invite UK and USA to stop murdering innocent Muslim women and children before commenting in a peaceful democracy like Argentina. CFK is not a murderer like bush nor a liar like Cameron nor is CFK a CIA trained terrorist, be sure to remove the log on from your own eye before trying to remove the stick in my eye. The laws in a democracy can be changed wich makes it stand out from a dictatorship. Changing the constitution is the strongest act of a democracy, dictatorships don't like changing the constitution that much. We love CFK the more UK and USA hates her the more we Argentines love her. Fortunately The english don't have a say in our elections.
    BAMOS BAMOS CFK 2015 malvinas Argentina y al carajo con los ingleses. Let's demand a nuclear defence programs for Argentina, let ask CFK to protect Argentina from the theft of our resources, let's stand up and take from the english as they theft from us.

    Lets see, a two party “democracy” is like saying “a per pound buffet”.

    And those two parties answer to the same 200 families that own 50% of the wealth there. All other political parties are squashed, not allowed to be on ballots, denied federal funds, etc.

    The media no longer questions anything or investigates. Either one set of channels/newspapers spews propaganda for the right, the other for the left. The politicians merely go to the news outlet where they will be “cuddled” and not asked anything, so no cross-examination occurs.

    Fraud all over the place starting in the year 2000.

    If I have the election system of that country correct, 90% is not even courted for votes, because it is not the vote that counts but the pool of congressmen in a point system on election day, which means only the congressmen of the provinces in “dispute” get courted, leaving the rest of the country to not even matter.

    Courts make law.

    28 “The USA and Europe hate Argentina, and have wanted our destruction since 1948.”

    ?!?!
    Sadly, this is an opinion I have heard from a (small) number of Kirchneristas since arriving in Argentina. While the communist/ capitalist ideology war of the past 60 years has led to some unsavoury policies in Latin America and elsewhere, (from BOTH sides, not just the west!) there is NO HATRED for Argentina from the US or UK. (Well, perhaps abit of bad feeling when your military dictatorship invaded the territory of our citizens but thats about it. And in the past! ) There has been mistaken policy, of course, particularly on the part of the IMF in the 90s, but that wasn't hate - the IMF wanted Argentina to succeed! when they failed dramatically it was a PR catastrophe for the IMF. And please, Argentina, accept some of the responsibility for the 2001 crash! Menem was the one who implemented policies which clearly wouldnt work, and embezzled state funds on such a high scale. Menem was ARGENTINE! and not yankee or English. so dont blame the western world for everything! Cant you see that the xenephobic feeling that Kirchner is feeding in her followers is only to distract you from the mounting economic problems in the country through uniting you against a common enemy?
    Why cant our countries be friends?!?!?! I love Argentina, Argentineans and the country. I DONT love the xenophobia that has emerged here in recent years. Or the crime. Or the lack of liberty my friends have to face in terms of travelling/ saving/ living.
    We live in a connected world, whether you like it or not, and foreign policy based on trust is so important for Argentina's success. Why can't Cristina and her cronies work with other countries and establish relationships based on negotiation and friendship, instead of spouting mistrust and accusations for past mistakes, over and over again?

    I really think the Kirchner admin could have gone WELL.

    A nation that didn't borrow in bad times, sounds GOOD to me!

    Borrowing is for CREATING money. Money seeds, (investment) to GROW MONEY, not to EAT the seeds! NOT for paying stopgaps (*cough* YPF payroll).

    The Kirchner's magic trick seemed to work because they took money that wasn't theirs and showed growth.

    Steveu I as an outsider really do not why the Brits even respond to the mornns that think the Falklands are the argentines. I cannot recall if you are from the islands or from the UK. But it seems to me, as well as the British government,( hence the reason for no discussions) that it's not even a discussable topic. As an American, that would be like Mexico claiming it's time to talk about Arizonia going bak to Mexico. However......I am willing to give Puerto Rico to the RG's if they desperately want an island.

    However bottom line is a CFK weakened Argentina, is much less of a coherent threat to British interests in the S Atlantic/Antarctica.

    Mate, give her the Presidency for life as far as we are concerned.

    Pirat Hunter is also RIGHT, IMHO. Cristina has, maybe been as good or better a president than all the rest they've had.
    Who created the child food program? GOOD JOB, CRISTINA.

    As part of a country that LIKES to see people eat :), I wasn't even aware that there were civilized govs that didn't have food assistance-for EVERYONE.

    But printing money so there's food inflation? Dumb.
    ( But I bet you she feels its money she can take back since Kirchners artificially created anyway).

    Then clamping on food when she's inflating currency? No SHORTAGE of dumb. (prolly more like, dishonest)

    Yet the economy cycles are cultural, don't attribute her that much power. They're Argentine.
    They get a new currency every twenty years-1982 was the last one, yeah? Hello :)

    Plus it was Nestornaut that defaulted. So now Argentine gov is borrowing up THREE TIMES the redline that sounded Spain's alarm.

    Howev, I think the IMF is AMAZING.
    Built to ENSURE TRANSPARENCY, SOFTEN cycles.

    They are allowed to, as a last resort, offer a loan in exchange for reform-and the corruption they are sweeping out of Greece-damn. 2 B Euros allegedly taken by the defense minister, disability pensions for shoplifters, and everywhere, jobs and pensions for votes.

    #37 that's what we Argentines say and UN says and Argentina wants but the UK and the pirates of the fakland island company want to theft Argentine territory. And send nuclear armed weapons to Antartica Argentina, and for this reaon it would only be responsible to have a nuclear defense program in Argentina. UK already showed their intentions. For your information 99% of Argentine's don't just think, but believe europe and USA only care for our resources at any cost.
    #38 because europe and USA don't want to work with other nation, but have other nations work for them.
    #40 for what I hear this british don't want to be in Malvinas Argentina and they want to be part of a fakland island corporate and british so they want to go back to UK, since Islas Malvinas Argentine is neither.
    #41 this is about Argentina go chat with the real south Americans elsewhere, am sorry but are you illiterate? Read the title retard.
    #42 from enron to gm to merill linch to fredy mac and funny mae to the airlines and a few hundred more American industries gone belly up the final hours is soon approaching. A few more food poison hysterias and a terror attacks pandemonium, and their fate will be self destructive not to mention expensive.
    #43 I am sure CFK is the best thing that has happened in Argentina for the past 200 years. Not my words but the headlines of many financial newspapers not too long ago. I can only assume that corruption is a world epidemic.

    For once I tend to agree with our Argie friends...if they want to modify their constitution to keep melted-face in power...good luck...they are sure going to need it.

    Ideally fair and equitable elections will be held and whoever comes out on top will gain power. Shame for the Argies if it's that harridan, but actually none of our business.

    The UK people certainly don't hate Argentina, on the whole they have very little opinion on the matter. They probably consider Argentina with Osvaldo Ardiles, Ricardo Villa, Maradona, Carlos Tevez and Lionel Messi..more than Tinpot and Botox witch....throw in corned beef, a couple of bottles of wine and a Madonna movie...that's about it for Argentina.

    What the Malvinista don't understand is the passion they hold for their (wrong) version of history, is not only met with equal steel by the uk populous, the 1982 invasion means that it will “never” change.

    So whinging, lying, cheating, bullying...all a complete total utter waste of time.

    The Islands belong to the islanders. More than 300 British and more than 600 Argentines lost their lives...just 30 years ago.

    Sorry but your wrong, we have a great interest in our Antarctic Territory, it is Argentina that is not in a position to be any sort of a threat to British interests, for the aforementioned reason.

    We have no need to change history, when the British made the history they recorded it. The British can prove beyond any doubt their claims.

    As you describe it, the Argentinian claims rests upon a population implanted since 1959, when the Antarctic treaty was signed.

    You forget, nothing you do while the treaty is in effect can later be used to enhance your claim.

    The Claims remain as they were in 1959, when Argentina and Chile had easily the weakest (and most recent) of all claims.

    @64 Tobias Just letting you know that my country probably has the fairest election method in the world, and doesn't use systems like First Past the Post. It uses the Additional Member System, which ensures that the voters, well... vote, is represented by the outcome of the election. And if you are wondering what country I'm from, it's Scotland, probably one of the best places in the Western world to live. Even if we're in a 'recession', things aren't as bad as it seems. It's just fuel prices that's killing most countries. $110 for a decent barrel of Brent Crude!!!! Ridiculous. The UN should universally lower all oil prices, to make it fairer for the consumer, and stagnate corporate greed. However, that's a fantasy, as the world's run by money these days (shame). Anyway, you may speak about how the Scottish Govt is dominated by the SNP, but this is only because they are delivering on their manifested promises, and are slowly taking away the power from Westminster (thank God as they don't understand our views, and don't listen to us), and we will soon be separated.
    Taking the issue of Argentina out of the picture for a moment, let's talk about British politics. Do you agree that the independence issue will be one of the most historical moments that the world has seen for a while, since it's the possible break-up of the most well-known union on Earth?

    It is statements like that where you just go off the deep end that makes you look so sophomoric.

    It's pretty hard to see the Taj Mahal and eat Indian food in Mendoza!. I think there is only 1 Indian restaurant in BA and it is expensive and awful.

    Plus Architecture outside of BA is woefully lacking most of the towns look exactly like each other and have the same menus and I have been to the Patagonia “welsh” country ( doesn't look anything like wales), Bariloche( doesn't look anything like Germany), etc etc etc so you are not fooling me.

    The UK is of no threat to us when it comes to Antarctica. Self-determination trumps all other UN or non-UN mandates, and your sole ace is right of first discovery, which is most certainly disputable (just just the contemporary discovery of Antarctica, but the fact it was probably sighted well before that), and to top it off holds no significance in modern settlements, when there are people in the territory in question.

    Since it is us with the longest uninterrupted presence (since 1904, this is admitted in writing by both the USGS and the British Historical Antarctic Study), us with the most bases, us with the first permanently habitated settlement, us with the first families, us with the first indigenous Antarctican, and us with the largest population year round (the USA surpasses us in the southern summer but is of no consequence), no British interests in the continent will be placed above those of the people there, once the treaty expires.

    As the rest of your dates at utter garbage, there is no doubt you have no proper rebuttal. The Antarctic peninsula is de facto ours anyway, and never will right of first discovery win in a court. If it does, then it would open the door for massive lawsuits by natives in the Americas, Australia, Africa, etc... and no country or court will open that can of worms for some ice down there.

    And by the time the treaty expires, you will be in no position to take any military action against us, since it will be recorded as a war of agression and will further bolster our claim.

    You can still go to Antarctica, it will simply by under our flag.

You should at least be grateful for that, but you're not. Instead, you decide to hate us, simply because we've managed to achieve things that you'll never be able to. I bet a historian could produce a list longer than the Old Testament, of all the things we've done for this world. I also find it funny how Argentinians always love to try and say that we've done nothing but brought violence to this world, alongside corruption, war and slavery. Guess what?? Dozens of nations did a lot worse before us, so get over it.

    “... Tony Blair and Jack Straw brushed aside repeated warnings from Government lawyers that they would not have a 'leg to stand on' if Britain invaded Iraq.

    Devastating evidence at the Iraq inquiry yesterday revealed that every senior legal adviser at the Foreign Office believed the conflict was in breach of international law.

    Astonishingly, Downing Street asked lawyers to assess what the consequences would be if Britain toppled Saddam Hussein without legal authority. When they received the lawyers' memo, No.10 demanded: 'Why has this been put in writing?'

    Sir Michael Wood, then the Foreign Office's senior legal adviser, warned ministers again and again that to go to war without approval from a UN Security Council resolution would constitute a 'crime of aggression' in international law.

    He told them it risked turning into a foreign policy disaster on the scale of Britain's ill-fated invasion of Suez in 1956.

    Less than two months before the Iraq War began in 2003, Sir Michael told ministers there was 'no doubt' that Britain could not lawfully use force against Iraq because it could not claim it was acting in self-defence, that it was trying to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe or that it had the authorisation of the UN...”

    @79 Tobias you claim to call yourself intelligent, but you cannot read and understand a simple post. That just throws it all out the window if you struggle with such things. I can tell you 100% your country is less than 5 years from an economic collapse, just like every other country. Ours is suffering from a recession. But, since we're not part of the eurozone, we're not nearly as bad as the rest of the membership bloc.
    Also if you read my statement, I put into brackets 'not just aimed at you'. I could've made it a little clearer, that it's more to do with the other Argie posters who love to post about the country's 'greatness'. E.g PirateHunter, 2012.
    You came up with 'evidence' to disprove my argument about respect for other cultures, however you fail to realise that the politicians do not represent the opinions and views of the British majority, who are indeed multicultural and have been for many years, unlike the xenophobic society. I will point out that so far from all the Argentinians I have personally met, which is quite a lot, I got this impression from them.
    Also, the facts tell that even in a worst case scenario, Britain would still be better off by a long shot than any SA country. Any person who has a knack for statistics, and a neutral state of mind, would back this statement.
    Finally, no-one can argue with a person like yourself, because YOU, not us, are far from the truth that your country is one stone's throw away from being permanently fucked, which I DON'T want to see happen.

    @82 Tobias you've proved one of my earlier theories too. Poor education equates to idiots.
    Banana peel tossed at Brazilian- only one I've heard was during a Scotland-Brazil game, thrown by a German ;) .
    Mr Menezes was mistaken for someone else, and was shot dead. Nothing to do with racism, and that happens all the time. Just a case of misidentidication.
    I don't know if you are talking about the 2011 riots, but they were caused by the death of Mark Duggan, who was shot dead by ARVs for being allegedly possessing a weapon. Duggan lived in a rough area, where reports of violence comes up weekly, sometimes guns. Again, not racism, but the police were at fault for that for poor decision-making.

    Google translate? Those are your belated aspirations to lenify your envy at my polyglotism, I would be more than happy to engage in French on a real-time platform. Agreed? Simply state the nomenclature of the IM.

    Please spare me further ennui. Bottom line, if contributors here circumscribed the scope of their commentary strictly within the purviews of the discussions about the Falklands and the islanders' indefeasible rights to determine their state of affairs, then most of you would be regarded by myself as completely rational contributors.

    But many of you have been betrayed by an almost prurient proclivity to troll the Argentines, as a whole and on any topic and theme (not just the “malvinistas”), compelled by an inner, Cimmerian force to redact replies on topics patently beyond your ken (mainly about Argentine history and culture). As a consequence, some of you come across as asinine sciolists, and a few others as jejune, inverecund ultracrepidarians, to whom one merely deigns to vouchsafe perfunctory forbearance at best; and a few others deserving of outright dismissal, spurn, and condign ostracizing. Thes stygian emotions tergiversate your reputation and redound to your shame.

    It results in you alienating those Argentines whose opinions may be consonant, precluding fledgling rapprochement that could be nurtured to eventuate irenic denouement between the denizens of both factions in a fantastically distant future. But most importantly, it diminishes your own contributions because when you indite what are either arrantly mendacious apocrypha or irrefragable canards about Argentina, then one is forced to engage in leery percontation, as to whether other asseverations by such individuals are also equally issuable. One may attempt to prescind fact from confabulation, fibs, and lies, but such efforts become anfractuous and ineludibly protract one's time of participation.

    It is getting closer to becoming a reality. I predicted that within the next few years Argentines will rise up against their dictators and take back democracy. CFK is now firmly on the ropes with few moves left to make before the Argentine population explode. Can't she see that her and her sick cronies who support her are finnished.
    It is never too late to educate a people and I believe the power of the internet has been the strongest educational tool available to the average Argentine who at last can see for themselves just what is going on. Their Country what was once a very wealth one has been in serious decline for the past 35 years and 1982 seen them slump so low their leader attacked the Falkland People to try and change the real people thinking. It failed then and the people kicked him out. It is failing again right now only differance this time CFK has no other tricks left to fool her people. Her bluff has been called and she knows it is just a matter of time before she falls.
    Falkland Islanders by contrast are doing very well economically and looks set to grow even more in the forseable future. Our people are quietly getting it right while CFK is embarrasing herself every time she speaks.

    Don't tell the Chinese you are trying to distabilize them. You see, if you are bringing them down, and they feel is too late to save their ship, funny things happen. Like, ever heard the saying “if I'm going down, I'm taking you with me”?

    It's human nature. So I hope you are wrong you are trying to make food expensive in China and stunt their growth. When they realize it, it maybe to late to stop it, but not to late to go to E-trade and call a small “sell order” on 1.1 trillion of your de facto worthless bonds.

    Heck, maybe even the Japanese will join in and sell another 1.1 trillion.

    Good bye USA... it's military, it's navy, it's airforce, it's industry, everything. Once they hit that sell button, you are on your needs starving in a matter of hours (since you need to borrow every day 40% of your budget).

    And with no hope of escape or anyone to turn to, as everyone else would sell as well to try to get something before it's worthless.

    Confirmed: english refs are racists.

    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/soccer/10/01/sergio-aguero-referees-bias/index.html

    LONDON (Reuters) -- Manchester City's Argentine striker Sergio Aguero has accused English referees of against foreign players in Premier League matches.
    Aguerosaid home referees treated foreign players differently and were more likely to ignore them on penalty appeals.He also said foreign players were more likely to be punished for penalties that should not be given against them.

    His compatriots Pablo Zabaleta and Carlos Tevez both had penalty appeals turned down at Craven Cottage

    ”There is a little bit of privilege with players who come from that country, but that is normal.

    And Aguero's views on Saturday's events, echoed those of Mancini, who was unhappy Fulham were awarded a penalty in the 10th minute when Zabaleta was harshly adjudged to have tripped Fulham's John Arne Riise.

    Other incidents involving overseas players caused concern on Saturday.

    Chelsea's Brazilian defender David Luiz was booked for diving during his side's 2-1 win at Arsenal, but the Gunners' English defender Carl Jenkinson, who committed an even more blatant dive than Luiz, escaped a booking.

    Former Premier League referee Graham Poll, writing in his column in the Daily Mail, also highlighted the problems now facing Uruguayan Luis Suarez, who scored a hat-trick in Liverpool's 5-2 win at Norwich.

    In other news, refs going back home after a hard day's work engaging in racism:

    The world is in a mess caused by greedy bankers. Think of the mess that Greece is in, for example. CFK is reelected because of her populist policies. There is no social security blanket in Argentina and once a person loses his/her job there is nothing to fall back upon.

    What I would like to know is why Chile, a country which had a violent past from 1975 till 1990, is now largely stable.

    lol idiot TiT, no banks in USA defaulted. Shows how little you know.
    They're all backed by the Fed, their debts were upheld.
    Meanwhile, the entirety of Argentina, from its companies to banks to the gov itself, default all the time, regularly, like a girl getting her period

    Ozgood, the reasons why Chile's doing so much better than Argentina:
    They don't blame others for their problems.
    They understand they have to work, it's strongly ingrained in Chileans. (argentines hate work, they just wanna protest)
    They don't start foreign wars.
    They're friendly with the West, and friendly towards foreign investors.

    You only forgot Mississippi.
    All those, plus oil-wealthy Texas are the ones that vote for wars. :/

    Radicalized Latino Republicans who fled socialism to Miami gave the U.S. election to George Bush Jr.

    I like: Obama & Ron Paul! They both have IMPRESSIVE integrity. Ron Paul = peace and freedom.
    Obama ended Iraq.
    Yet he was there when Afghanistan called for help. 70% of Afghani men polled WANTED U.S. security to protect them from THEIR rednecks.

    And he's exiting Afghanistan better than the Soviet Union did in the 80s. Now that it's secure, they've been able to secure a lot of investment from China.

    You Know for a small Island community we certainly can make the commentators on this site look rediculous. You might wonder why. Well it is because we have been better educated than those Argentine masses. Not entirely their fault because they have to do as they are told.
    No freedom of speech,
    No democracy.
    No Commen sense.
    No respect for their neighbours.
    No chance of ever changing our wishes.

    Every time your leader opens her mouth she digs a deeper hole.
    Why! Because she hasn't got a clue about the history of the Falkland or its people. That she is so blinded by greed she can't even see the damage she is inflicting on her own people.

    Yet dispite that those uneducated ones commenting on here think she knows it all and as a result has deluded their minds as well.
    There is help out there for you though. The Islanders have some really good therapysts that given the right oppertunity could heal your hatred towards us.

    @159 Tobias I (again) loved your repeated use of Google Translate and probable thesaurus use. Also, I'd like to point out that just because you like to use 'advanced' grammar, doesn't mean you understand the English language. There's a LOT more to it. You have to read texts, read books from English authors, research the culture behind the country. That goes for all languages. If you want to understand the language, first you have to understand the background of it.
    Anyway, you still don't seem to understand that the US (although I dislike them) still have a lot of influence in SA business, although Argentina seems to be making a hash of trying to get economic growth by pushing them away.
    Lastly, Argentinian people are also classed as South Americans (as all other countries on the continent) , as they, of course, live there and were born there.

    “What do you do when the city where you live is dying? All over the United States formerly great cities are crumbling, but some are definitely in worse shape than others. One reader recently wrote to me about what she sees happening all around her in Reno, Nevada. The unemployment rate in Reno is now up to 11.7 percent, which is well above the national average of 8.3 percent. But even though the labor force is now nearly 20 percent smaller, the unemployment rate is still well above 11 percent. There simply are not enough jobs in large Nevada cities such as Reno and Las Vegas. Even today, some housing developments that were put up near the end of the boom times look like virtual ghost towns. Nevada has the fifth highest suicide rate in the nation, gangs have moved in and the drug trade is flourishing. Reno has been called the meth capital of America, and crime is on the rise. On Reno resident said:
    ”As a lifelong Renoite, I am inclined to respond to these lists with defiance. Yeah, things can look pretty grim sometimes when no one can find a job, and there seems to be no way out.“

    And that is how many Americans are feeling these days. They are broke, unemployed, depressed and out of options.

    How can you pick up and start a new life somewhere else when you have no job and no money?

    Sadly, a lot of younger Americans are turning to drugs in an attempt to escape the pain of their daily lives. Crime is is no longer falling in America. More than 80% of Americas said the country is on the wrong track for 6 years in row now, and all-time record.

    Most say the American dream is no longer real.

    Reno is far from alone. Detroit, Cleveland and Baltimore are completely falling apart as well. This kind of thing is literally happening from coast to coast. Many cities and states will go broke in the next few years.

    Real unemployment is over 17%. One recent study found that 46 percent of all Americans die with less than $10k worth of financial assets.

    The following are 21 facts about America's failing infrastructure that will blow your mind...

    #4 Approximately one-third of all roads in the United States are in substandard condition.

    #5 Close to a third of all highway fatalities are due “to substandard road conditions, obsolete road designs, or roadside hazards.”

    #6 One out of every four bridges in America either carries more traffic than originally intended or is in need of repair.

    #9 All over America, asphalt roads are being ground up and are being replaced with gravel roads because they are cheaper to maintain. The state of South Dakota has transformed over 100 miles of asphalt roads into gravel roads, and 38 out of the 83 counties in the state of Michigan have transformed at least some of their asphalt roads into gravel roads.

    #10 There are 4,095 dams in the United States that are at risk of failure. That number has risen by more than 100 percent since 1999.

    #11 Of all the dam failures that have happened in the United States since 1874, a third of them have happened during the past decade.

    #12 Close to half of all U.S. households do not have access to bus or rail transit.

    #16 All across the United States, conditions at many of our state parks, recreation areas and historic sites are deplorable at best. Some states have backlogs of repair projects that are now over a billion dollars long....

    #20 The World Economic Forum ranks U.S. infrastructure 23rd in the world, and we fall a little bit farther behind the rest of the developed world every single day.

    #21 It has been projected that it would take 2.2 trillion dollars over the next 5 years just to repair our existing infrastructure. That does not even include a single penny for badly needed new infrastructure.

    An Argentinian child born in in Antarctic is an “Indigenous Antarctican”!

    How does this help Argentina’s claim if the child is not even Argentinian.

    Indigenous Antarcticans born in British territory would be entitled to the protection of the crown, think about it!

    “People who live there”, particularly liked that statement, military personnel (or Civilians) doing a tour of duty (then back to the world, man!) in the most uninhabitable place on the planet, do not constitute a population, never mind an indigenous one.

    Their called “military personnel” not “a population”, who do you think you’re kidding.

    The division of the Artic did not “open the door for massive lawsuits by natives in the Americas, Australia, Africa, ect” why would the Antarctic?

    The British are already in Antarctica under our own flag and with our military, arrived long before Argentina did, as you point out.

    Argentina and Chile can still have Antarctic territories, in the as yet unclaimed part of Antarctica.

    But not in British Antarctic Territory, that is already taken.

    @178 Tobias pretty interesting quote I found about Argentina and it's 2001 DEFAULT (sorry I have to LOL).
    ”This year, however, the government has the opposite problem. Its growth figures are already perkier than many private forecasts (though the economy is now generally believed to have touched bottom). And there is another complication: if growth exceeds 3.3 per cent, Argentina must pay GDP warrants that were issued as part of its debt restructuring after its 2001 default on nearly $100bn.“
    Another on possible corruption:

    ”Full details are not yet known – Hernán Lorenzino, the economy minister, is due to unveil it in Congress on Thursday. But the government has earned a reputation for fancy footwork in its budget figures in recent years, deliberately understating growth to obtain a windfall that can be distributed at will.”

    Our country is clearly in a better state than yours, and can also survive recession. Hope you find these interesting

My retirement benefit would only be 2800 and I don't expect to live on that when I retire....I funded my own with my employer. Geez....26 million out of 316 million......not bad compared to the 30% of argentines living on 12 pesos a day according Indec

    Cap, It is because they've never been here> Every single Rg friend I bring to NYC or DC is shocked at how beautiful, clean, modern it is and they always say the same “They have no idea” meaning Rgs are brainwashed at birth to think BA is the most beautiful, cosmopolitan city in the world And if you compare it to La Paz or Caracas it most certainly is nicer than those...but then again that is not saying much!
    Other than the people, the dog poop, garbage, traffic, muggers,litter and noise BA is a great place to visit.

    lol TiT doesn't know what facts are, it simply spouts totally absurd rubbish as though it were fact, as as though we even slightly believe any of it.
    Here's some FACTS for you though:
    -poverty line in Argentina: 2 US Dollars a day

    -global EXTREME poverty line according to UN and World Bank: 1.25 US Dollars a day

    -poverty line in USA: 30 US dollars per day

    LOL! poverty line in USA = FIFTEEN times wealthier than Argentine
    LOL poverty line in Arg is the same as Africa, and same as global EXTREME poverty

    Argentina is not in a very good political position right now and her people are beginning to rise up against CFK and her corupt government.
    I see the Argentine economy colapsing every day. Yet there are some who refuse to believe it. Wake up it is real and I reckon within the next six months Argentina will be a whole lot worse than it is now.
    The Islanders meanwhile are winning respect from major new areas on a regular basis so it would appear that genuine people are listening to us and laughing at CFK.
