Jun 13th, 2015 - 08:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina, the joke that keeps on giving!
Jun 13th, 2015 - 08:58 am - Link - Report abuse 0The Bubble.ar site has an excellent article about the political situation in Argentina.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 09:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Maximo is the worst choice for running...
I would be surprised if he ran more than a 20 metres.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 09:18 am - Link - Report abuse 0Fat Max leads an army of fanatics under the La Campora - youth movement. La Campora was a small group of young supporters under Nestor but have been unleashed as a bunch of thugs under CFK and Fat Max. They are not going to disappear when CFK leaves office and that is concerning.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 09:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0Bit of a typo there.....should read' Tosser throw's hat in ring'
Jun 13th, 2015 - 10:11 am - Link - Report abuse 0What a bunch of ass-kissers. Scioli should know better. Cretina has stabbed him in the back more than once and he just keeps running back for more. Grow some you idiot.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 11:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0So husband passes leadership to wife who passes it to son.....if the population vote for this they deserve all they get.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 11:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0I wasn't aware that argieland still needed dogcatchers. Thought Maxie had eaten them all. As Englander says he couldn't catch a dog now.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 11:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0This is to keep FM from prosecution. They have some really screwy laws in Argentina and sitting Pols can't be prosecuted for just about anything.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 11:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0Their future is bleak.
@7 What a smuck Scioli is. He is trying to capture the Kamporas vote.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 12:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If by some outlandish reason he won then expect him to have some kind of accident, so the K's are back in full power again.
Maxximus Prattus for VP!
Jun 13th, 2015 - 12:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0PMSL at the thought of this. But stranger things have happened in The Dark Country, you only have to look at TMBOA herself for the evidence.
Maxximus is still a cokehead it seems so that's going to work well!
Ha, ha, ha, forever and ever!
Argentina isnt a republic. Its a hereditary politocracy. ¡ Viva el rey Peron!
Jun 13th, 2015 - 02:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And Queens Evita and Isabelita.
And the latest dynasty? King Néstor the Crosseyed, Cristina the Botox sovereign and next Max the Fat?

Jun 13th, 2015 - 02:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Exactly, Vice President Maximo is sure to step into power, once Scioli 'steps aside'.
Fat? You mean Fart!
Jun 13th, 2015 - 03:00 pm - Link - Report abuse 0First thing to happen will be dismissal of all judges, Campora to be equipped with brown shirts and jackboots. Camps for the opposition and free flights over the Plate? Whadya Think?
I did not think much of Maximo running for office, but after reading the above posts I am convinced he probably has value--if just the possibility of his candidacy unleashes such a reaction!

Jun 13th, 2015 - 05:09 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“once Scioli 'steps aside”
Don't you mean is suicided? :o)
Prince Mini-Me for president! I hope that the toad seizes power that way queen Cretina can still rule from the cloakroom.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 05:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Viva la K-swine.
@16 Ah, the really well though out grown-up way of choosing a candidate. You clearly care nothing for the people of Argentina ……. why would you safely enjoying Canada?

#17 Chris...my thoughts exactly. I certainly wouldn't put it past la cretina. She got away with it once...she will do it again.
Jun 13th, 2015 - 06:24 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It won't happen...surely...Nah, of course not...
Jun 13th, 2015 - 08:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I hope he does and we can carry on laughing at Argentina, what a hoot.

Jun 14th, 2015 - 02:06 am - Link - Report abuse 0Let's hope not. Maximo is being defended for the opposing media trying to assign ate his character. What positive thing has he accomplished in his 38 years of life wasting the efforts of a tree somewhere providing oxygen for him to breathe?
@16 Enrique
Jun 14th, 2015 - 10:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0There's a saying in sport that tactically you should do whatever your opponent least wants you to do. If the general reaction here to the idea of a President Max is laughter and giddy excitement then you should take that as a bad sign. It's one thing to get a reaction, but remember to read what that reaction indicates.
Will all future Presidents of Argentina have to be called “Kirchner”, like all Roman emperors after Julius Cesar were called “Caesar”.
Jun 14th, 2015 - 12:10 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Just a thought.
@ 16 Enrique Massot
Stick with your first thought, that would overall be better for the people of Argentina, I think.
Do not be swayed by the hysterical amusement you read here, in all seriousness it is hard to describe, even in English, how funny this appears to us, must be a cultural thing.
@ 23 golfcronie
Perhaps a film like “Carry on the Kirchners”, or “The Meaning of Maximo’s Life” by Monty Python.
@26
Jun 14th, 2015 - 01:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A film , a good idea, how about “ A Life of Brian ” or in Argentina “ A Life of Max ” but it would be a short film.
rotting roadkill is going to get the government that it deserves.
Jun 14th, 2015 - 02:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Left or right it makes little difference in outcomes.
The society and the goverment and the peoples are highly flawed.
@27 A Life of Max. He is not the Messiah, he is a very naughty boy.
Jun 14th, 2015 - 02:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@16. Assassination is GOOD!
Jun 14th, 2015 - 03:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@29. He's got a gut. He doesn't need a head. Cut it off. That's advice.
@27 golfcronie & 29 ElaineB
Jun 14th, 2015 - 04:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Or even “Fat Max” replete with squeaky leg brace, driving Jeremy Clarkson’s Porch from Top Gear in Argentina, with the spare number plate on BELL END.
Driving across a post-apocalyptic Argentina (Conqueror’s handiwork), to Stinks “Turnip Dome” remember the little Dwarf!!!!
This is going to be endless fun.

Ate millions of pies?
Maximum Pie?
Jun 15th, 2015 - 02:24 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Pies Wide Open?
Escape from Buenos Aires?
Pie Hard III?
Elephant Man?
Fear and Loathing in La Casa Rosada?
The Plodfather?
Goldenpie? (featuring Max Pond-life)...
Pielander?
The Max, the Bad and the Ugly?
Or maybe just a cameo appearance in either
JAWS II
or
The Hunger?
Or quite simply
Misery?

“tosses Maximo Kirchner's hat in the ring”
And for the electorate's 'entertainment , he'll do the dance of a thousand pies.

Jun 17th, 2015 - 05:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A better headline would have been:
”(Mother) tosses Tosser Maximo Kirchner's 100 gallon hat in the ring for Argentina's elections”
So much nearer the truth! :o)
