    Out of her depth methinks, but at least the members of the G20 can breath a sigh of relief.

    A bit harsh - would have thought they might have provided a bed...

    Medically speaking, in all fairness, this poor woman has experienced a number of medical problems recently, some quite serious. They appear to be growing.

    ” 2014: The 61 year-old president was treated early this year for a hip pain and sciatica, and in July for an acute throat infection.

    2013: Last year she had undergone surgery to treat bleeding on her brain (hematoma) and is most recently suffering from an inflammation of the sigmoid colon.

    And this is what is known to the public.

    Whether or not she is treated at the opulent and private Otamendi clinic, or something akin to the now closed Sanatorio ( not Sanitorio ) Eva Peron, is immaterial. Cranial hematomas, subdural, or epidural are life threatening, with some patients not surviving.

    Her problems are continuing and she needs full examination, diagnosis, and treatment ( out of Argentina) , or the office of the President of Argentina may experience another medical incident as before.

    She should retire ASAP.

    Sigmoiditis........in common parlance, a pain in the arse. While wishing the lady no harm, it does seem rather prophetic

    I suspect she has had this for some time and it would account for a lot of the cancelled meetings and her constant confinement.

    At must be distressing to have this flare up and know one has to represent a country at events. She is a stubborn woman but if she saw sense she would be bowing out over legitimate serious health issues.

    I wonder why she's in a Private Hospital. Isn't their “free” healthcare good enough for her?

    My guess is the overdosage of Lithium is what has been causing her medical problems. Someone I know very close to the Prez team told me a couple years ago they put her on double the recommended dosage.
    It explains a lot.

    What a shame........does that mean there'll be no extra-curricular activities at the G20 ?

    “Out of her depth methinks, but at least the members of the G20 can breath a sigh of relief.”

    I don't even think that they would notice she wasn't there. The lack of high pitched whining might make them think that the air con system had been fixed though..............

    Surely the hour has arrived for la Kretina to claim medical problems for her very welcome resignation!

    No alligators in QLD Briton - perhaps you were thinking of Florida? We have crocs down under, a much bigger reptile.

    She could always try a head transplant: one with a sheep would be a big improvement in all areas.

    @20. How could you make such a suggestion? First there's the welsh at one end for leisure centres then CFK at the other end to get some head. Where's your concern for nature? Especially sheep? What's wrong with a pig? Who would notice?

    I am surprised she hasn't DEMANDED that the G20 come to BsAS!

    On the other hand, she would have to deal with them and that just isn't in her repertoire.

    After all the hate she's ramped up against “the West” and foreigners in general, how could she afford the Security required, not to mention the other costs incurred as a host?

    She's too cheap.

    Not only that, many of her lies about Arg would be exposed.

    Regardless, G20 leaders expect to stay somewhere safe and reliable.

    “ So no g20 showdown with Obama over Soderberg....bummer.”

    After she promised to haul Barrack over the coals-like waiting for Argentina to take these oil companies to court-after all, they said it was definitely going to happen.

    I think an an encounter with a six metre saltie would definitely have cured any constipation issues she may be experiencing...

    to be fair, you cant all be nasty to CFK as she is in hospital.

    Mind you, her colon would be in better shape if she stopped talking through her a**

    She is hiding in hospital to avoid all the awkward questions at the the G20, plus the global media. Remember she only plays to the deliberately infantalisied, ill-informed domestic audience.

    She should pack her bags and go now, before the Argentines realise how much they have been lied to.

    GOOD NEWS!

    The doctors have announced that they have, at last, found the presidents brain!

    Yes, it's true and was detected when they did the X-ray of her backside!

    Well, TMBOA talks shit and now her brain is confirming that as a fact. :o)
