Ay Ay Ay Mr Fido Dido.......

Sometimes your comments are sooooo..... I don't know what to call them:-)

I really wonder why you care to comment about South Americaa politics when your info about us seems to be based on a picture of an “Hot Lady” in MercoPress…….

If you knew something about the current political situation in Peru, you would know that the APRA chances to win the next election in Perú are as high as the “Nieuwe Communistische Partij” wining the next elections in the Netherlands………..

Reminds me of Delfim Netto. “First increase the cake and then divide it,” he said. Didn't work.

De nieuwe Communistishe Partij is voor idioten, translation the new Communist Party is for Peronistas. APRA in Peru (I have been to Lima Peru and I know the grand daughter of the founder of APRA) equalifant to the Dutch Labour Party PVDA (Partij van de Arbeid). PT is the PVDA in Brazil.

Oh my god. How can you increase the cake you already bake? Of course that won't work. You bake more cakes / Increase the volumes of cakes/ create more wealth/ then you spread the wealth without cutting the pieces smaller and smaller from the first cake.

The lady is right (and yes, she's hot), Lula did the same and the Kirchners are idiots. Ohh, I like South America.

Two out of three....

You are surely a good Baker……
And you have good taste about Women……

But as a Political/ Economical advisor for South America you stink….

Not only you give us some old and bad recipes that have been tried and failed grossly down here....

You give us the same recipe that has failed in your part of the world and now, your failed system is trying to get us to pay your bills…

Forget it ……Mister :-)

Of course I stink in your point of view. That doesn't surprise me from a person who cannot read when his and her beloved president is being bashed for it's actions. You refuse to see the truth of your country, because it will make you realize that what you had and have in your mind was and is a lie.

“Not only you give us some old and bad recipes that have been tried and failed grossly down here....”

Nobody forced you to accept the advice from those Neo-Liberal parasites that did tricked the leaders who were elected directly and indirectly by the people and for the people of Argentina. Today, the debt is yours, like it or not, but don't blame it on foreigners, blame it on your government leaders who stole all the privately borrowed money and added it to the national debt and blame the people who vote/voted for them. In the good old borrowing and spending days, Argentines were on top of the world, what was in reality they refuse to see an illusion and what hurts today. Today the people who bought the lie are sour, heart broken and believe pure out desperation the lies of the government who is stealing big pieces from the slices that comes from one big cake. What you had before the crash in your country wasn't capitalism, but pure crony capitalism (and still have), similar like what is happening today in the United States, but on a smaller scale (logic, US GDP is bigger, propped up by a bigger government and bigger debt)

(7) Dear Fido Dido….

I “think” we will have to agree about disagreeing on “Economics”

By the way…….
At (4) you say:
”I have been to Lima Peru and I know the grand daughter of the founder of APRA”……..

Well….. I have been maybe 25 -30 times to Holland.
Have “enjoyed” most of Amsterdam’s Coffeeshops, and know superficially the Zorreguieta Family…………..
Does that give me the authority of trying to teach you how not to elect a “real and complete idiot” like Geert Wilders, how to make an excellent Gouda cheese or how to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of Delft Blue crockery?

I don’t “think” so………..

And I know we disagree on Economics, what is no problem at all, well for me.

“Well….. I have been maybe 25 -30 times to Holland.”
What I have should typed is, I do know the grand daughter of one of the founders of APRA. It was a group. Her grandfather, a proud Peruvian of Italian descent and disliked Chileans is/was born in Arica before the Chileans conquered that place.
25-30 times in Holland huh...sure Think, this is just another trick people type here by trying to explain in their mind for them self, because they don't know, but think “yeah right, you went to Peru, and I went to Holland”. People like you are classic thinkers who confuse them self by mixing the words think and know with each other. Perhaps you went to Holland, I don't know and neither don't I think if you went or not, but know that you know that you visited Holland or not.

Another classic from an Argentinian, how important Mr. Think to type here about Amsterdam has coffee shops ( Weird, you forgot to type the words: de wallen, de rosse buurt or pink neighborhood), and the Zorreguieta Family (An old corrupt family that plays no role at all in Dutch society and are meaningless until they solved the problem that they weren't welcome at the Royal Wedding)

“Does that give me the authority of trying to teach you how not to elect a “real and complete idiot” like Geert Wilders, how to make an excellent Gouda cheese or how to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of Delft Blue crockery?”

WHO.. typed or said to you in person that someone should or must give you the authority or that you need the authority to teach how to elect a “real and complete idiot” like Geert Wilders, how to make an excellent Gouda cheese or how to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of Delft Blue crockery?

You think, mr Think that you need Authority to answer that question?
If you think so, keep on thinking, you're going to wait for a long time, Mr Think. It's fine that we disagree on Economics. I encourage you to believe what
