US State Department obsessed curiosity with Argentina’s “First couple”
Amongst the 250,000 documents released by the WikiLeaks organization is a cable that shows the intention of the White House of “preparing a written product examining the interpersonal dynamics between the Argentine governing tandem” (“ruling couple” or First couple”) Cristina and Nestor Kirchner, according to the published material.

(”support for Argentina’s Falklands/Malvinas’ )
Not likely ... if anything the U.S. will be keen to please their principle allies ... so maybe a little more support for the British position.

“who was contrary to her travelling to the area unless there was “something (diplomatically) pre-cooked”. This episode is evidence of the “ineptitude of the Kirchners in foreign policy”.”
Coming from US, should her takes it as a compliment? At least she hasn’t any wikileaks like Hilary had. haha
“Secretary Arturo Valenzuela”
This guy needs a special chapter the Chilean born Yank wannabe has inferiority complex and wanted to lectured Us about law in Argentina.
And he got a kick in his back lower part and was sent back to Miami where he belongs with a recrimination about what it is the line that should never cross.
Then he wrote: “The United States celebrates the leadership of Argentina in a number of areas, including fighting terrorism, drug trafficking, and nuclear nonproliferation. During my first official visit to South America..”
Like Leon Panetta The CIA gordo boy director who has to publicly apologizes for his verborragic excess.
The CIA's Panetta begs Argentina's forgiveness

The Us is a joke
Other than pointing out the K's were paranoid and probably nuts this “embarrassment” will blow over shortly and may be a net positive for the USA re EU and Mid East relations.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 03:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I would think we would have more postings saying CFK was somewhat sane rather than all the Argies agreeing she is nuts.
BTW Nico: Maybe instead of reading wiki you should read about the leakage in Argentina http://blogs.ft.com/beyond-brics/2010/11/30/after-kirchner-scandal-rocks-argentina/
Yet another scandal brewing, oh when will they end in this forsaken place? Why doesn't CFK take her stolen millions and live move to Caracas? Maybe they don't have the right psycho-meds in Venezuela.
Hey fredbdc take at look..

@ Alfredo #7 Your life gravitates around Argentina haha, You have no peace man, take a break, stop wishing bad on us, cool off man. Thanx for your concerns Alfredo, but Argentina is a sovereignity with compassionate intelligent administrators, we're dealing with people like you everyday, we know what you're looking for ;)
Nov 30th, 2010 - 03:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Xbox, Is your real name Elias? Are you a chubby little Tucumano living in BA? Saw your posts on MS FB page. You are infecting lots of sites, I think you need to take a rest too!
Nov 30th, 2010 - 04:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Marcos, What is your point? 64% of Argentinians have not graduated from high school! And...
Programme for International Student Assessment, which surveyed 400,000 15-year-old students in 57 countries, placed Argentina nearly at the bottom of the scale in terms of performance in all of the areas studied: math (52nd place), science (51st) and reading (53rd).
I guess that is why they mow lawns and clean our houses.
Most countries that participate in the PISA assessments are developed nations with OECD membership. Even Israel - a heavyweight in science an technology innovation - gets below average scores on PISA.

I always knew you were not from the USA haha. Do you see how cool I am? I can say even more, you are living in Argentina right now. Am I wrong? I'm sorry I ruined your obrita de teatro berreta ;)Saludos hermano latinoamericano jeje
Nov 30th, 2010 - 04:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Nope I live in DC, don't know why you think I am in Argentina? Plus you cyber-stalked me so you know a lot more about me than I do you.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 05:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I could only tell by the broken English and the poor phrasing it was you on FB Elias. I think you are too morochito to be calling yourself a porteno. When did you move to the big city patoruzito?
Fred, you are being clearly racist and hateful.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 05:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Try to deserve to post here.
@ Alfredo #13 I don't even know what FB means. or do you mean Facebook? I don't have a facebook account. But I see you are thinking of me all the time haha. Patoruzito? Hermoso personaje de nuestra tierra Argentina. Ojalá fuera como Patoruzito, pero no, igualmente me alegra saber que te avergonzás de ser latinoamericano, it's funny. I'm sure you are living in Argentina, I'm sure about that ;)
Nov 30th, 2010 - 05:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Pheel, How do you figure? Please enlighten me, which “race” am I against? I will give you a hint, there are only 5 races and Latin American is not one of them. hahaha

Nov 30th, 2010 - 05:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0. “Other Latinamerican leaders have been to the White House but Argentina in spite of her strong stand against Iran and in combating terrorism has yet to be invited”. CFK mentioned the case of Brazil’s Lula da Silva who in spite of his close approach with Teheran and having voted against at the Atomic Energy Agency had already visited the White House. “It’s difficult to understand why this is so”.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 07:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Cristina Kirchner doesn't get it or doesn't want to get it.
Lula was invited first because he is considered by Washington DC, the leader of Latin America. Second, Brazil is a net creditor (US owes them lots of money). Argentina isn't and owes the US lots of money. Nations who don't want to pay or cannot pay yet, aren't invited easily or in front of the cameras.
Fred, what does “morochito” mean?
Nov 30th, 2010 - 07:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“KKK-Nigro”-new version?
Better to apologize than insist in mistake.
Bye.
Pheel, you are from Argentina right? I believe morochito is not used as a literal translation but means a dark featured Latin not a negroid. Check with your neighbors before you get your panties n a bunch and get back with me.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 07:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@ Alfredo #20, you reported my comment jaja. Pretending you are from the US, when you are a latinoamericano, living in Argentina, what a clown.
Nov 30th, 2010 - 07:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Xbox, you are such a ridiculous tucumano. What does it matter? Even if I was in Argentina I would be living in a house where they would not even let you walk down the street, behind a tall wall with a guard in the front to protect me from the filthy masses you call companeros.

It's nice to see that all your comments are born of an extreme jealousy. Are you Uruguayan or Mexican? Peruvian???????? If you are from Mexico or Peru I can understand, but from Uruguay? We pretty much feed the whole country of Uruguay, if you're an Uruguayan, you should bow down to us, gato mal agradecido. ;)

¡Malvinas Argentinas!
Actually Mercedes Sosa used to live in the same condo building as I did in BA ( on a lower floor of course). It was right in front of the French Ambassador's Residence on Carlos Pelligrini/Arroyo. I never saw her but people told me she lived there. I guess it was a pretty famous building but I could not stand the noise from the traffic so I moved to La Lucila on the River.

I´m a little suspicious of any article which states ”The document (31 December 2010) described ...”
Nov 30th, 2010 - 11:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@ fredbdc #27 Actually I'm from Newton, General Belgrano, Buenos Aires, but we moved to Cap Fed when I was 9. I'm not a Tucumano, but I can't guess why you think that people from Tucuman are “morochitos” and you need to protect yourself from all the compañeros and why you dislike this province so much, and why you think that calling me a tucumano can make me feel bad haha, it's not an insult being a Tucumano. Anyway, I knew you were a latinoamericano, but I don't understand why you've been denying it haha. Is your country such a horrible place that you need to say you're other nationalities? You can't change what you are fred, you are a latinoamericano and you'll die being a latinoamericano. You have issues with skin color. Why? haha I can get a Visa, don't worry, but I don't need a Visa to visit your barrio chabon, aunque más que chabon sos un ortiva. Greets! ;)
Nov 30th, 2010 - 11:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Based on google satellite Newton looks like a dump no wonder your family moved. I am probably going to BA and PDE in Jan/Feb. We should meet in person, do you think they will let you in the Park Hyatt? Last time, I had a lot of trouble getting Argentinians in the Four Seasons they would not let them in based on their skin color. BA is one of the most prejudiced places I have ever been!
Dec 01st, 2010 - 12:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0fredbdc, In your country a few decades ago black people had to ride in the back of the bus and still people of color are discriminated against on daily basis.

Dec 01st, 2010 - 12:47 am - Link - Report abuse 0Newton is a lovely quite place in Argentina, good people, great people, horses, cows, some sheeps, domestical fowls, blue skies, aire con olor a campo! It's a small country inside another country, yes, a beautiful little country, that is ;)
Here is a link with some images of the old Estación Newton.

You think I am kidding? I had to pay lots of bouncers to let my darker friends in to the clubs and yell at them at the Hotels. It wasn't fun.
Dec 01st, 2010 - 04:28 am - Link - Report abuse 0I am glad you like the town you were born it but seriously if you think that is nice you need to get out more. It looks like it should be condemned and torn down. I am only guessing but I bet you don't have paved roads, possibly the main one in the town and then all the rest are dirt? Am I right? I don;t understand why you get about 50 miles outside of BA and it still looks like the early 1900s it is very strange.
muchachos, do not respond again, this person is full of hatred and resentment. Además de ortiva es un otario.
Dec 02nd, 2010 - 02:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0newton looks picturesque & pretty, xbox. l have never heard of Mercedes, such a strong voice. why are we all interested in where someone comes from? and xbox, what have you got against Uruguay? first us, then Chile & now Uruguay. do you like any of your neighbours?
