Pepe has to put his hand up here and admit that this guy has some real truth out in the open at last.

Pepe's involvement in Pluna says it all. There is always a ‘smoothing’ factor in economies and it can take some time for the good (or bad) policies of previous governments to work through.

This will very much be the case after the next election whoever wins but given the mess that Pepe is getting all of us into I would imagine his party would not want to win anyway.

If Pepe gets into comparing dick sizes with this guy he will lose.

Surely Mr. Ernesto Talvi must know that left wing governments will not accept criticism . However true it may be . Forget not that this President considers that practicality is above the law .

Pepe authoritarian, that really is a comically off the mark criticism! He's like the cuddly uncle of the left! While I personally like Cristina and Chavez's dramatic styles, to say Pepe also is authoritarian exposes really this accusation for what it really is, a baseless out-of-the-barrel rightwing slur...
