Means Singer should be negotiating better before Griesa lifts the injunction.

Or maybe the next injunction that Singer gets will be even tougher than the present one.

Why the Argentines are fcking around over a few U$B that Singer is legally owed is mindboggling to me.

Pay it get it done and concentrate on rebuilding the economy and arresting the Kirchnerites

At this point, legal means shit here, especially if the Argentine congress reverses that debt law. Singer should take what he can get when he was in the catbird seat. He'd still make a killing for the pennies he paid for it. It am sure at the end of the day when all is said and done, he will get what he deserves. But.....like Will Muny said....“deserves got nothing to do with it”.

I say he should buy into Venezuela...or Greece, Ukraine, Egypt They look great for people like Singer who sniff's the asses in cemeteries. But then, he probably can't get away with that grave robbing anymore. I hope he get's Scaliaed, Unfortunately he is only 71.
