Disclaimer & comment rulesSo let's get this straight - a letter purporting to be from the Despot of Rome (sometimes known as the pope) was delivered to the Argentine Government by some courier or other. The Vatican says it's a fake but the Argentines, known throughout the world for their honesty and integrity, say it isn't!!!! - who to believe? - triiiccckkkyyy , that one.

May 23rd, 2014 - 02:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You shouldn´t believe everything published by the press.
Many times it is fake in favour of their own interests.
Finally the vatican recognized the letter is real.
Mercopress should correct this publication, if not they are lying.
@3 I don't read links but I have been following the news item. Yesterday Clarin was quoting someone from the Vatican stating it was fake, today they are quoting the Vatican spokesperson saying it was a standard greeting from the Pope.
May 23rd, 2014 - 02:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I am open minded because it seems to be terribly written with numerous errors but I have never had a letter from the Pope so maybe they are all like that. :)
Does anyone think an official letter from the vatican is signed “Francisco”?
May 23rd, 2014 - 02:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0This is something silly the Ks did and they got caught and they asked the Vatican to help them save face.

May 23rd, 2014 - 03:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Which are your fundamentals to say that?
Do you think the vatican will accept their spokesman said samething wrong just to help argentinian`s goverment?
I don`t think so.
My goverment lies as much as your goverment. Do not be blind
Perhaps the Pope is only able to write in juvenile C A P I T A L - L E T T E R S.
May 23rd, 2014 - 03:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Cristina seems to think so.
Cut 'n paste from magazines ... yeah, that must be The Pope!
Ooh! This is all a bit Handbags at Dawn isn't it?

Quality Entertainment.
it looks like you want to believe your own story insted of accepting the facts.
May 23rd, 2014 - 06:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You deny reality. Please read another news paper.
I am worried about how much you hate us. It is a shame.
The letter has spelling mistakes something unbelivable for an official, and diplomatic, document.
May 23rd, 2014 - 06:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It has some “plural and singular” mixing mistakes and, above all, it mentioned CFK as “presidentA” something wrong since in Spanish the noun “presidentA” must always be “presidenE”. I mean, it must be in masculine since the noun doesn't exist in femenine. These are too much mistakes for such a short letter. This is a proof that the letter was fake and, what's worse, nobody noticed that in the Casa Rosada.not even by the grammar mistakes.
I believe that the Vatican preferred to officially accept that “it is a true document” than to be engaged in a useless polemic discussion. These are the kind of polemics that CFK, and her gang, are always willing to be involved.
On a lighter note then,,

whilst the other may well go to paradise,
so they say..lol
@4, 7, 10. Yo-Yo-Yo. Are you new here? Just been taken on at a peso a day have you. Bottom line. I wouldn't believe an argie if it said the sun would rise in the east, our planet is round and orbits around the sun. Virtually ALL argies LIE ALL the time. You don't know how to do anything else. It's why, when you visit a civilised country, you have to be taken into a private room to have your balls stamped on and then kicked off. Because you don't know how to tell the truth. Still, maybe, in three or four hundred years. I wonder if you understand how much you are despised and hated.

May 23rd, 2014 - 11:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“ We don’t know what happened ! ” seems correct to sum the state of affairs in Argentina under your current leadership.
Should you wish to remain in office, remember the following: It is called CONFIRMATION.

4th class newspaper & boludos varios:
May 24th, 2014 - 01:09 am - Link - Report abuse 01. it was not fake.
2. it was not a letter.
3. it was a telegram.
4. telegrams are written in capital letters.
As I wrote under another article:
May 24th, 2014 - 02:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0It can't be a priest or even the Pope that wrote it....CFK's lot are trying to find a scapegoat. A priest wouldn't have made basic errors such as omitting the word 'virgin' from María Santísima de Luján. Any person who's studied at a catholic school in Buenos Aires, let alone the Pope, would know that.
The Vatican has obviously decided it doesn't want to get involved in arguing the truth with CFK........she's not very good at accepting it
More intrigue from la Kretina in order to maintain the myth!
