    I am surprised they could teach a pig to talk.
    I guess Rgs are smarter than I thought.

    Fat Max need to be deloused.

    “ in representation of the Santa Cruz province”

    Which will be returned to the Falkland Island within 25 years.

    The Falkland Islands have enough elephant seals without having an imitation, thank you 'five chins' Maximo.

    Wow. The mess Fat Max's mate has made at Aerolineas. Nothing but cancellations and delays….

    ”“It was incredible. We just couldn’t stop selling tickets!” the one-time Victory Front (FpV) mayoral hopeful said.

    That’s swell, but I doubt it’s any consolation to the approximately 20,000 passengers affected by cancellations and delays.”

    It is really easy. Don't take the money if you can't provide the flight.

    4. I wonder how they are going to pay for and then take possession of the wide body boeing jets they have on order?

    Methinks Singer needs a couple new ones...

    Máximo's statements are short and to the point.
    It's nothing short of amazing to see a presidential candidate turning around in key platform points so close to election time--and speaks volumes about the success of the Kirchners' policies.
    Let's remember the PRO did vote against all the measures Macri now appears to support, such as the nationalization of Aerolíneas Argentinas and YPF.
    Macri's only missing point was a turn around on the vulture topic (he has so far said Argentina must just pay them).
    Democracy needs debate and contrast.
    Macri's role as leader of the opposition looks rather shaky.

    EM it must be great to cheer for South American dictocracy all the way from Canada. It's about 5,800 miles from Logan, how far is it from Toronto?

    Tell us why you do not live in Argentina again but support it? No worries EM.......I can't blame you for not wanting to live in those conditions either. It's a better life in Canada. Would you like some Marroc on my next trip?

    @6. But Maximo is a prick. A fat, floppy prick. How much of argieland's money did he steal to fund his meat and cream pies? That's the peoples' money.
    Perhaps he should just be shot!

    Supporting the Ks from a safe distance is like Neo-Nazis supporting Hitler generations after he failed miserably and ended up shooting himself. Neo-Nazis can't change history anymore than EM can impact the election in anyway from Canada.

    The positive side of having an online forum is that we become aware of who the crazy people are.

    On june 3 the official rate was 9.02 it is today 9.17. I make that 12% devaluation for the year if trend remains the same. But of course the inflation is running at about 35%, I think the official rate will reach 9.2 by 1 August.

    All of the inflation is hiding in the short term bonds to the banks, currently paying 30%!
    I read today the banks no longer want the bonds because they don't think they'll ever get paid back.

    I wonder if reekie really believes the shit he writes while whacking his choripan.
    Surely Macri has a pile of dirt on this fat slob and can unleash on the K thugs.

    @19
    Not losing anything on the companies legally exploring for oil in the FALKLANDS, because I do not need to sell them as they will be an inheritance for my offspring. You only lose money if you sell shares when they are losing value. fortunately I have enough money.
