Dec 18th, 2014 - 11:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0all leaders send him a birthday card and some sent gifts,
CFK send him a demand for support over the Falkland's,
so they say...
I´m not a fan of the pope. I´m not catholic neither.
Dec 18th, 2014 - 04:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Nevertheless, I hope he does a good job, because many people out there live by his words and commands.
As for CFK ... she did all in her power to sabotage his election, and once he got elected she declared herself her # 1 fan, so figure out how hypocrite she is.
Sour grapes...I understand that an Argentine pope may not be the best choice for some MercoPress readers, but here he is. Ready, in the best Argentine tradition, to shake up things to modernize--and perhaps even democratize--an institution seriously in needed of “aggiornamento.”

Dec 18th, 2014 - 06:10 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Here goes Chris...from a story about the Pope to question the origins of tango. Uruguayans...Argentines...who cares who invented the Tango? We are all Rioplatenses, we enjoy dancing it and we do not give a rat's ass about the philosophers of keyboard ranting about anything and everything, to vent their frustrations...and because they haven't got anything better to do.
I read the tango was a spinoff of African dance before the Argentines committed genocide with the planned killing of the the “black problem” long ago. SO they essentially stole the tango......surprise.

Has there ever been any dance invented, in one fell swoop, by one man??
Hahaha, this British imbecile is dumber than I thought.

Dec 18th, 2014 - 09:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Don't you impune the veracity of my Uruguayo friends who are pissed off with the argie imbeciles for claiming everything on the planet.
Understandable really given what a bunch of fuck-ups the argies are.
#7 Exactly tranny boi, but we don't or killed or the blacks and pretend they never existed. When you confessed to being a transsexual under TruthTellingTroll you did not have to abandon that name.
Dec 18th, 2014 - 09:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Gotta love John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and especially Sip James......hey....you like James Cotton?
I think your illness distorts your perception of the world. The only cure for your illness....being a trans-sexual Argentine is a straight razor. Contrary to the propaganda you listen and believe, more whites and blacks and hispanics (like you) get along then not. Cherry pick the news because the loudest squeal gets the oil. Is that is tranny boi.......your daddy makes you squeal.....like a pig?
