8 Brassiero must be part of the minority 33% who don't think Dilma should be impeached.
Aug 07th, 2015 - 10:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You can hardly say he speaks for the Brazilian people, if the majority of them are saying something else!
LOL !!
As the inflation climbs and the BReal sinks she'll lose more and more control.
Aug 07th, 2015 - 11:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0PBR is sinking like a rock
As PBR goes so does Brazil
Until they stop the free $ to slum dweller program they'll never get their inflation in control.
Marxist Monkeys don't know how to fix this mess they've got themselves into
Will be fun to watch
Brazil inflation hits 12 year high.

Dilma is going down.
“Rousseff was revealed to have an approval rating of 8%, according to a survey conducted by polling firm Datafolha”
Aug 08th, 2015 - 05:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0Datafolha is a subsidiary of Grupo Folha also partner of the “Globo group” who was supportive of the military dictartoship in Brazil. ummm.
Why should be that survey credible at all?????
Well then Dany find us another one.
Aug 08th, 2015 - 06:48 am - Link - Report abuse 0Bet it will be closer to 8% than 100%.

Aug 08th, 2015 - 09:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0Don't you find it odd that Dany and Brassiero and the other Trolls, seem to support whoever is in power, even regardless of overwhelming popular dissent?
Maduro
Dilma
- neither one has the support of the general population- they want them gone!
Strange that the self-appointed, 'champions of the people' Brasso and Dany, will insist on defending these people and their policies.
Correa
Pepe
Morales
Kirchner
- they defend them all...
While we criticise aggressive propaganda, political agendas, and oppressive Social Policies and corruption when we see it - no-minds like Stevie, Dany, Marcos, and Brasso, will support these leaders even when their own people do not!
It makes me think they have more interest in just being contrarian trolls on MP, rather than having the interests of the People at heart.

Aug 08th, 2015 - 09:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0It's a case of cutting their noses off to spite their faces.
I'm sure in their minds that they revel in what they see as our endless frustration with these politicians staying in power. However these politicians are actually an asset to our countries. If international relations are based on relative power (economic, soft or hard) then these leaders actually disempower these countries and by default empower ours.
Having more competent politicians with less graft and corruption would be the last thing I (and others such as yourself) would want if our interest was purely selfish and based on our own needs.
Kirchner, Rousseff, Maduro have been disastrous for these countries. They have actively increased the gap between their countries and developed counties compared to what a component leader could have done.
@6. It's 2018 and happy Lulu starts 20 year prison sentence. Prediction.

That's a different pollster!
@14. Don't we find it odd? Not really. I wonder if anyone's plotted when their comments appear? Anyone want to take a guess on who pays? It wasn't long ago that I saw an article describing a Russian “project” where people are paid to sit at computers for hours at a time posting comments to western news websites purporting to be citizens of western countries. Could argieland be doing the same thing? After all, we've seen amazing changes in writing style from such as “Brasso”. Or are there students doing “coursework”?
If the Brazilians can do this to her,

unless, unlike the Brazilians, they are to brainwashed...
@12 hamburger
Aug 08th, 2015 - 10:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Just for your information, and check it out with some serious source, the Data Folha, which belongs to the 'Grupo Folha', has absolutely nothing to do with the Grupo Globo; the Globo group is the largest media conglomerate in South America, and their TV company, Rede Globo de Televisão, is second to only ABC (USA). The only venture they have in common with the Folha Group, is a 50/50 % ownership of the respected financial paper “Valor Econômico” ; Other than that, they are each other’s main competitor. And, something else you don't know, the 'Grupo Folha' is left-leaning and usually defends Dilma and the PT , through either ommitting the facts or downplaying them ; But it reaches a point, when even they, to retain some credibility, tell the truth.
Further, the 'Datafolha' polls are just one of many being published , and they all show Dilma's popularity is below 8%.....If the tendency shown by these polls was incorrect, why in hell do you think that Dilma is so worried, why Lulla is desperately struggling in the background, to manipulate all they can to prevent the nasty truth from surfacing ??
Careful not to be confused with the brASSHOLE....it's the type of mistake he makes.

Yes, he fancies himself as an economist, yet he does not understand Supply and Demand, the effect on Purchasing Power when a currency is devalued, or even the idea that foreign investors will only invest if they can expect a return on their money.
All foreign concepts to him.
How about this nugget of stupidity...
”... so you (Brits in UK ) have more Spanish hermanos than the Argentinians...”
http://en.mercopress.com/2015/07/31/uk-overtakes-brazil-as-santander-s-most-profitable-market#comment409029
Very revealing tho' that he believes the Celts that came to Britain 3000 years ago, were Spanish, and indeed are Spanish to this day... - that explains their ludicrous demonisation of the Anglo-Saxon English, as opposed to the Celtic hermanos of Scotland and Wales etc.
Don't know how he squares that with his assertion that the constant stream for 490 years to the PRESENT, of Spanish-speaking immigrants from Spain, mind you, are NOT Spanish hermanos, but actually a unique race, Argentines !!
A ha ha ha .... - he's full of Toro Shit and doesn't see it!!
Dany 'claims' he's German and moved voluntarily to Argentina.
Aug 09th, 2015 - 09:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0If it's actually true then enough said.
@22. Isn't “Dany” female? I remember “it” complaining about “women”, e.g. her, being targeted. Mind you, perhaps it's a shemale. What a horrible load of baggage to drag around. A German shemale choosing to be an argie. Germans have some “queer” ideas. Shemales must be confused and “queer”. And as for argies...... Isn't it yet compulsory for argies to screw each other? Must be fun being in a queue. “Cashier number 5 please”. “Step up please, sir”. “Hang on, the guy behind me hasn't finished yet. Can't step up when bent over with pants around ankles”.
Aug 09th, 2015 - 12:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@21. Please see my comment above. Think of “Dany” as a shemale or female. A shemale must be confused anyway. As for females, who knows how foreign ones of those “think”?
