    “Brown Nose” should now be her nickname, no longer “La Kretina”!

    I'm pretty sure Lagarde still refers to CFK as “that deranged banshee”

    As with @1, desperate Kirchner now tries ass-licking. Are there no depths to which “the harpy” will not descend? No, there aren't. If she wasn't such a scag she'd be out on the streets trying to sell it. Mind you, most “normal” males would want to be paid to plug it. How fortunate for her that argieland doesn't have any “normal” males. And she can take her teeth out as well!

    No doubt KFC will also be saying that 'Madame' Lagarde, (the French politician who knows nothing about economics) also fully supports Argentina over the Falklands issue - always good for a laugh is KFC

    Madame means Señora or Mrs. Should Cristina call her the Ogresse Christine Lagarde? Mercopress or When hate becomes your everyday food.

    Lagarde is a poor substitute for the need for someone to steer the IMF at this particularly difficult time.

    This is demonstrated by the fact that there have been a number of successful sovereign defaults since Argentina stuck two fingers up to the small Italian investors who put all their pensions into the bonds. In many cases these defaults have overcome the perceived “problems” that Legarde and her people “see” as a problem.

    Is anyone surprised that the IMF are behind the curve on this?

    Why do these countries even try to entertain a woman who insults them at every stage?
    She has no interest other than her own greed,

    Still,
    Its about time she retired now,
    And rested her well used wiggling tongue…

    The fix is in. Argentina is going to default with IMF support. America should sanction Argentina and the IMF.
