    kic-ill: ”..she is doing perfectly well...” - she was just not in the mood to follow the boring questions in the meeting and sent her most boring minister.

    Isn't America the enemy? Obama was asking “when are you going to pay your debts?”

    Do they not get it, it is called “etiquette”. Most civilised countries will ask about the health if one of their ilk fails to turn up to a conference through lack of good health, why does it have to be a big deal? And to make a statement to the media defies all logic. Still Argentina is still a very backward country every little helps I suppose.

    'Short list' and a picture of an Argentinean midget...jajajajajajaja

    Wonder if Obama is actually saying, 'hello, little man:could you polish my shoes while you're down there?”

    Looks like Obama is saying “ And who are you?” To which Kickitoff said “ I am from Argentina”. Obama “ Where is that ?”

    '..who added that they also addressed other current issues but suggested that “it's President Obama who should disclose the nature of the conversation”.

    So in other words they discussed very little and nothing that the Argie Ministry of Information could use as propaganda. No 'Malvinas Support', no support on the bonds. Klickitoff will get the wrath of Christina when he gets back to office for not using the opportunity to lie, cheat, fabricate and well...just be an Argentinian Government official.

    Either they are realising their press release lies following high level meetings come back to bite them, the Irish government fabricated support for the 'Malvinas' springs to mind. Or he was probably told to 'do one' by Obama and 'sort your shite out'

    I'm going with the latter.

    Either Kicillof always walks around looking doped up with his mouth slightly open like he is kinda slow, or the picture editor should get a raise.

    They were actually enquiring about her MENTAL health and hoping that someone could clue them up on whether she had increased her medication.

    However I still love her as Argentina's president. Best president for the Falkland Islands ever.

    Ha ha, Kicillof is short, with a bad haircut.

    Her various illnesses are probably just side effects of her taking meth - left overs from her cronies support of the methamphetamine industry in Argentina.

    also rather handy that shes suddenly fit enough to do some work the moment g20 was effectively over.

    Most world leaders enquired about her health condition:

    “Is the corrupt witch dead yet?”

    “Is the mad bitch too sick to be here?”

    ”when is the state funeral (both Argentina and CFK)?”

    Yes, I suppose they are enquiries?...

    “ Little ” Lord Fauntleroy.

    No, you say ?
    Read the synopsis of the book, as in some respects it is very close:

    Tony Abbott is very pro the monarchy, he is pro the commonwealth and strong links with the UK and he is very pro the Falkland Islands self-determination.

    Not a destination KFC would be wanting to garner support for her doomed cause, hence her non appearance.
