Nov 26th, 2011 - 02:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Mercosur is not for the lady's maybe the lady's should go wash dishes in UK with the other women of the world. Cristina is not tough the montonero's were tough, sendero luminosos was tough, la farc are tough and the drug cartels in Mejico are tough, mr Burghi doesn't know the definition of tough, I would support him 100% if he desided to close the border that way there will be no reason for us to disagree or fight, I rather lose the friend then fight everyday, we will consider helping him by closing the borders if that will end the problems in Uruguay, why should we fight when we can close the borders and ignore eachother, there is no harm in that. maybe the border was open for too long and needs to be closed for longer to keep things like this from happening.
