    AT LAST !!! ”Cristina(eco)nomics“ are being adopted by the U.S.A. if you don't like the report fire the messenger and change it to what you want. I note he also has Argentine experience.Snr.Bodou should look further afield to the Fed Reserve for promotion, and Snr Timerman, now that he has settled all self imposed Argentine disputes between Uruguay could also look further afield,and look at Hilary's position and claim title to Iraq ..much more impressive than the pathetically small Falklands,and far more oil to be taken..and NO sheep to worry about.Then Bill could come down here and balance the budget and become ”close” friends with the Casa Rosada..after all more colorfull than the White House...tralalalal...
