What a pack of lies! Yeah the illness may exist but the seriousness and the gravity of it and its seriousness is very hard to tell, when the old Cyclops was still alive the government denied any sort of problem whatsoever and the whole thing was handled in utter secrecy and of course blamed Clarin for making the whole thing up……. and one day out of the blue he died.

Oct 06th, 2013 - 10:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0ck always finds a way to save time. no reason is crazy enough for her to make her a tragic figure. The country shall have compassion with her, the poor president, who works so hard for us...
But lies and pressure to creditors over years, 25 % inflation rate, no dollars to pay the bills for oil and food, being the enemy of nearly the whole world, not being seen as normal with her comments, make head ache, that´s well known to everybody.
Let´s see how she will work with Boudou, even more criminal as she herself.
A chronic subdural hematoma is a collection of ‘old’ blood and blood breakdown products between the surface of the brain and its outermost covering (the dura). The tiny vessels between the dura and surface of the brain burst and slowly leak blood. This is common in the aging, shrinking brain, following head injury.
Oct 06th, 2013 - 10:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0Cristina may have developed it by long term, heavy alcohol use, long-term use of aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, or blood thinning medication.
Symptoms may include confusion, coma, memory loss, limb weakness, headaches, seizures, and drowsiness. Cristina will be having her balance, coordination, mental functions, sensation, strength and ambulation checked – as well as CT and MRI.
She may need a cranial drain through drilled ports, or more extensive surgery to remove larger clots. Her bipolar problem may lead to more complex and persistent anxiety problems, but there are drugs to control and manage convulsive seizures.
I imagine running Argentina is a bit like ‘banging your head against a brick wall’ (A British saying); any bang could have triggered this issue.
I remain puzzled about the Thyroid story. After the scans, which would have (presumably) revealed asymmetric, solid enlargement, she would have had a biopsy which would have (presumably) indicated malignancy and which of the 4 main thyroid cancers it was. Thus, how it turned out to be benign after full thyroidectomy is really odd. Did they never actually do the tests first?

Oct 06th, 2013 - 10:59 am - Link - Report abuse 0Brain trauma sure does explain a lot though...
We always said she would bow out due to ill health when the tide of public opinion turned against her. If this is a chronic problem being used for her to avoid the mid-terms I guess she has started the process.

27)Though I still regard that theory as a possibility there is one basic problem and that is, what about all of her cronies that will become orphans overnight to the judges and vindictive peronists, that have being silenced over a decade??… The rats need to formulate an escape plan too!! If the rats don’t survive the purge and the whole structure that is the basis of Kirchnerism doesn’t remain loyal to her during “the exile” the chances of a triumphant return are greatly diminished

I don’t really want her going early (dying or quitting physically handicapped) I want to see her Model collapse in her own hands rather than having herself handling the time bomb to explode on someone else . Nevertheless it will be best if she called out for anticipated elections when the crisis breaks out and a political power vacuum generates in the last 2 years remaining.
@28 the rats are already joining Massa. One thing to keep in mind: the most important people in Argentina aren't the leaders, but the rats. The President is just the guy that the rats put to sink the country and please the people, so they can keep eating the people's food.
Oct 06th, 2013 - 05:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 025) No, you don’t understand argentine politics…. The so called “rats” I was referring to are the ones who really are Kirchnerists, who really are in charge of the government, ministers, La Campora, fake ideologists like Carta Abierta, UyO, D’Ellia,etc. The Peronists had to simply cope with CFK and her husband as they controlled the 80% of the money of the state, and they have been waiting for quite some time to see someone of their own to get the votes they need to jump up on. Sure the Peronists also indulged in hanging on the widows skirts but most of them have being for years in politics even before the Kirchners arrived. Cristina really hates Peron, but the couple used the Partido justicialista and peronist liturgy to climb to power

Oct 06th, 2013 - 06:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@50 Well Boudou is already her designated Vice-president there is nothing she can do, she admitted to her inner circle that selecting him was a mistake. After Ciccone Kicilof gained a lot of power as he is really the Economy Minister as Lorenzino is a puppet, he has his fingers in YPF making life as hard as possible to poor Galuccio, he has some saying in Aerolineas Argentinas and I think he has got some people loyal to him pressuring in Enarsa trying to take De Vido out of there too. But apart from that there is not much more room for him to grow…
Oct 06th, 2013 - 06:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It’s interesting you mentioned Max because it’s true it’s now or never for him, though he isn’t really taken that seriously outside Santa Cruz, but as the power vacuum gets the inner circle nervous who knows who they will turn to…
@53... yes thats him!
(Jokes aside, Cranial trauma and bleeding is pretty nasty especially if it's allowed to coast as it seems to have been allowed to do here.) But the question now comes... does this “time out” work to the advantage of FPV/PJs who want a break with Kirchnerism as well as other parties? Or does it give Kirchnerists a break from the already irate behavior to which Argentine politics had become accustomed before her accident by giving them a break from her frothy antics so they can pretend to be the party of the grownups for a month. (I can see a similar scenario for lead Tea Party icons in the America working to the advantage of both moderate ~and~ radical Republicans -- but anti-Palin/Bachman closeted misogyny aside, there are too many T-Party wannabe vanguardsmen for them to be “medically contained” into one person. )

As they are not democratic and have a proper chain of command the regimes shake in absence of the supreme leader and internal dissidence emerges.

Oct 06th, 2013 - 09:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As it was expectable, some people who can't be serious detractors of kirchnerism, need to wish cristina's death, or prefer expressing that this is just a politic operation, and it's because not only they are too misserable as human beings, but also because they are so ignorant that they think that kirchnerism is just c. f. k., that's why they think that if cristina dies, kirchnerism will be over. Although most comments here were made respectfuly this time, unfortunatelly always appear some reactionary people. This is evident that what those cretins can't see, is that kirchnerism has a very active support along argentina. In fact, there are two very important detaills, which are sistematicly ignored by hegemonical press, i mean the fact that although the president's party didn't win in the most important districts of the country, however f. p. v. and it's allies got the 31,1% of votes, which became it into the most voted force of the country. If we take into account the detaill that c. f. k's party has ruled the nation for ten years, it's amazing the fact that it's still the most voted party of argentina, which is a privilege that not many political parties around the world can have.
Another important detaill, is related to what f. p. v. should get in next elections, because if it gets a similar result to what it got in august, c. f. k's party will continue rulling the country without signifficant parliamentary obstacles, which is what really matters.
However, in our corporate press are usually published mischievous lectures, which predict the so called end of cycle of kirchnerims.
I agree on criticising the falencies of c. f. k's government, however the source for discussing about those issues can't be our hegemonical press, and you all know why, although many of you prefer ignoring it.
I confess that i have been more worried than ever since yesterday, but i have also the hope that cristina will recover soon.

You are ultimately supporting a dynastic monarchy in control of the power of state, followed and believed by a very few cheap cheese populists like yourself who really believe in the myth and the lies you have being told. They KK have being a decade in power that’s true, but during the most part of its history allied with Clarin, Moyano and the Barons of the Conurbano…The first two have abandoned you in 2008 and 2012 and the last ones are leaving you as we speak. Massa is ahead of you 10% in October. You are over. You are just living “Los años de Bignone”, with a vague hope of returning in 2019 or inventing Urribarri for 2015 by remaking a chauvinist fight against Uruguay from a none issue. Nuff said

Please, please tell us:
Why CAN'T Argentine VOTERS discuss and exchange information about the Argentine government in the Argentine Press???
Are the people 'not qualified' to discuss politics or express an opinion??
Is it 'unfair' or 'unpatrioric' for the Press to report on the recent performance of a government up for re-election??
Please, who is 'allowed' to comment or freely ask questions of the candidates, if not the journalists or the VOTERS??
Simple questions - let's see your principles, Axis.

Oct 07th, 2013 - 12:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Let me explain to you how the “outside world” sees Kirchnerism and its followers like you.
1) Argentina borrows money that it has ABSOLUTELY NO INTENTION of paying back. This is different from borrowing money and then running into difficulty and needing help. Argentina plans to STEAL and then play the victim.
2) Argentina has a propoganda machine that would make Hermann Goering blush. The downright lies that it feeds its population, and that are swallowed by morons like you, are extraordinary.
3) Argentina uses a make-believe set of fantasies about 1833 to divert the gullible morons and unite all under a nationalist fervour against an imagined enemy and an imagined cause. Again, an old fascist ploy.
Peronism/Kirchnerism has done two things to Argentina. The first is driven it almost to bankrupcy despite having a wonderful foundation and massive natural resources...this could be fixed. However, the second is far far more damaging...They have polluted the Argentine populus. They have made lying, cheating, thieving, laziness and corruption not just acceptable, but admirable. It is shameful, and will take generations to undo.
You are living proof of this axel. You see yourself and your country as victims, claiming that other are mediocre and reactionary...but you are quite happy to trawl out offensive and inaccurate doctrines. Typical Argentine Peronist/Kirchenerist behavior.
I for one hope that CFK makes a full recovery, for the simple reason that everyone internationally can see that she and Timmerman are ridiculous. I don't believe that the Argentine people will or can elect a non-corrupt “grown-up” government so anyone less ridiculous than CFK could only be more dangerous to the Falkland islanders.
Its a shame, a waste and will take generations to fix. Argentina is indeed wasted on the Argentines.
@88 You have even made posters and celebrated draws.... Poor second half. The Monumental was packed with people and that doesnt make any favours to the home side.

Be serious, if you can, and realise once and for all that it's still too soon to say that kichnerism is nothing without cristina. I would never underestimate the activism of the political parties who aren't kirchnerist, but it would be better also if many of you stop underestimating us, instead of being so misserable.
TROY TOMPEST: You are not stupid, you and everybody else know why clarin, la nación and perfil aren't serious sources for discussing about falencies of c. f. k's government, in fact we have already discussed about it, beside i dated some jornalists who are also detractors of kirchnerism, but who are serious peple, and deserve much more to be dated than that cretin press, if you prefer believing the contrary, i respect it, but i won't waste my time talking to people who read such mediocre press.

Actualy that so called outside world has no more than the tipicall too partial view, characteristic of empires, which aims to stigmatize leftist governments considered like populist, in fact you are a good proof of the people who buys easily the missinformation of that mediocre press.
Anyway beyond that kind of decadent press that you and many others love reading, i just can tell you that despite all the serious problems that we still have, and despite the contradictions and falencies of c. f. k's governments, i'm proud of all the achievements that we could get in the last ten years.

Nestor created it, but after his death his widow did not get it, and dynamated it by believing fairy tells she made up in her own mind which only fools like you believe. After Nestor died and the triumvirate of Massa, De Narvaez and Solá broke, it was clear at late 2010 that Cristina was for the win if she would present herself because there was nobody else to take her place amongst the rats, and already in early 2o11 you started talking about modifying the constitution to get the reelection. Soy bean over US$ 500 and the dollar was still 4,50 AR$ in 2011, with no real opposition and the sympathy effect it was a written on the wall she was going to win.

@122 well said, all that comes out of her head is hot air and s***.

“Not serious sources” - what does that mean?
“...mediocre press” - what does THAT mean???
Are these “sources” not edited or controlled by La Campora, is that the problem??
What are your 'requirements' for discussions of politics??
Can't anyone freely discuss politics in your country?
IF these publications or journalists LIED or LIBELLED the K's publicly in the popular media, surely CFK would have had them arrested and charged.
On the other hand - very frustrating for CFK if what Lanata & Co. Said was true - and she could do nothing about it !!
Your ideas of rights and principles are very “mediocre” as you say.
