bovis english uses too much double letters, currently not happens in spanish so much, one never knows if it is double or not, just in case I put twice the same letters. for me losing and loosing has the same meaning.

Taking about twitter. Social networks, those that have taken so many anti-democratic regimes down in Middle East and Africa in the last years and that are giving the wright-wingers in the Spanish Government so many troubles nowadays are the ones that helped CFK being re-elected.
Mar 26th, 2012 - 03:24 am - Link - Report abuse 0In the UK, twitter and social networks have clearly represented a menace to Cameron's Government, and Scotland yard has even seen twitter as an enemy after the riots in London.
For those who love pointing at CFK's Government as a dictatorship (when reality is totally the opposite in fact); how can you explain that social networks worked like this in Argentina? How can you explain that social networks represented a benefit for the Argentinian Government if you think it is not democratic as you say?
Clarin and La Nacion newspapers hate social networks and the democracy in communication that these technologies bring. They hate not being the ones that control the media, and they blame the Government but the truth is that the ones letting them alone is the people after realizing what interests these corporations represent.
He should do everybody a favor and take himself off the planet.

Mar 26th, 2012 - 07:18 am - Link - Report abuse 0I don't see much point in worrying about the odd spelling mistake. English will be the second language of both the authors of this site and all the South American posters. As long as we understand the point then what does it matter?
Mar 26th, 2012 - 08:00 am - Link - Report abuse 0I certainly couldn't post in Spanish or any other Latin language and it's a shame we are limited to those who have the skills and confidence to post in English.
@13 it's not just a dictatorship, it's a family dictatorship. Let me show you how it works briefly:
