More deflection, shit-stirring and evasion from the Argentine Government.
Oct 30th, 2014 - 10:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They have no concept of responsibility and are setting a very bad example to the youngsters.
I hope they get their come-uppance.
Cretina, rotting roadkill and the rotting roadkillians have @ 5 hours to slip the hangman's noose on this little $14,000,000,000.00 US treat. woooooo-hooooo!
Oct 30th, 2014 - 10:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ok. Now I may be an American but I am no lawyer. Can someone tell me where you go to sue a US Federal judge? Lololololol
Oct 30th, 2014 - 10:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They also have no concept of US law that they agreed to abide by. Then again they also agreed to pay back all that they borrowed........
What a horror story!
Oct 30th, 2014 - 11:00 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Some of the bondholders previously filed amicus briefs in some of the other pleadings seeking the release of funds. So, in effect, what Jorge is proposing has already been done and as the record indicates - failed. This is strictly for local consumption.
Oct 30th, 2014 - 11:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Jorge: Your Gringo Amigos salute you for your effort at SPIN!
SALUTE!
The Chinese gave them a couple weeks of cash flow today.

Cross Default
Oct 31st, 2014 - 03:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0That's what you get when you have an Argentine Pope.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oct 31st, 2014 - 06:40 am - Link - Report abuse 0The mood on this website already seems lighter for some reason.
@8 Captain Poppy
Oct 31st, 2014 - 07:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0I'm still awaiting the Argentines arresting, charging and imprisoning folks connected with the Falklands oil industry, after all, they promised us they would take them to court two years ago (or was it four years ago)?
Pete 16 - just what I thought as I read the article- Judge Griesa must be shaking in his boots as he rolls on the floor with laughter!
Oct 31st, 2014 - 09:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0Does everyone in the Argentine Govt insist on their new national tradition(it used to be the tango and fine wines and good beef) of foot shooting - preferable both barrels at both feet together?
this coming from the coutry who stood up in a court of law and said that they would abide by whatever ruiling or decision the court came to....
Oct 31st, 2014 - 09:43 am - Link - Report abuse 013. When another series of bonds goes into default. Like Today.
Oct 31st, 2014 - 10:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0That's why they had to get the Chinese $ yesterday. Even China won't loan to countries in default.
CaptainDismal: TMBOA must have searched far and wide to find this idiot.
Oct 31st, 2014 - 11:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0He even makes Gollum look half competent.
I wonder if he really thinks any sensible person will take this advice.
Argentina tells bondholders to take legal action against Judge Griesa who is 'withholding funds'
Oct 31st, 2014 - 12:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What the 'Captain' really meant to say was:
Argentina tells bondholders to go to hell!”
So what's happening with Citibank in Argentina ? Is the government going to arrest them and put them in jail ? (could pose a logistical problem and would certainly be a first, but this government has already filled both feet with lead projectiles - who would even notice another one ?)
Oct 31st, 2014 - 04:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A fart from FART of FARTLAND. Maybe he'll be 'snipered' soon. NO judge, in any civilised country, can be sued. On the other hand, Capitanich can be shot. By a sniper. Who has the best snipers? UK or US? As long as the pointless content is splattered. Then Timerman. Then Kirchner. Then Kicilloff. No problems, girlies. Just wait. You're already dead. Just a matter of timing!
Oct 31st, 2014 - 04:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So, let me get this right ...
Oct 31st, 2014 - 05:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina is saying Get the money from the American judge, 'cos we won't pay it.
Why does CFK think Twitter is the right place to address POTUS? Daft mare.
Oct 31st, 2014 - 08:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Has TTT got 7 days in the slammer?
The more things change, the more they stay the same:
Nov 01st, 2014 - 10:27 am - Link - Report abuse 0In 1842 Argentina offered to exchange its claim to the Falklands for the annulment of the Barings debt. (A loan taken out by the Argentine government in the 1820s from Barings Bank in London, on which Argentina had suspended payment).
In 1842 when the request was made the Baring loan was so long in arrears that with accumulated interest it was worth around 2 million pounds!http://www.falklands.gov.fk/assets/Outdated-GettingItRight.pdf
Argentina’s offer was not accepted but the story demonstrates that Argentina has been a dead beat debtor for a long, long time!
TMBOA?
Nov 01st, 2014 - 11:39 am - Link - Report abuse 0Should be updated to The Mental Clown Of Argentina perhaps?
