An Argentine powerful public works contractor from the province of Santa Cruz and close associate of the Kirchner family, Lazaro Baez was arrested on Tuesday afternoon when he arrived in his private Lear Jet to a Buenos Aires airport. Considered one of the wealthiest men in the southern province, political turf of the Kirchner family, and with an 'unrivaled' talent for business, Baez is a main suspect of an investigation into alleged money laundering.

The Buenos Aires Herald had a fascinating statement about Baez...
Apr 07th, 2016 - 02:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0He began his lucrative relationship with the Kirchner’s as the former driver to Kirchner ahead of the latter’s rise to the presidency in 2003, and the pair remained close until Kirchner’s death in 2010. They reportedly had dinner together the night Kirchner died.
Coinkydinks? ;)
Before Baez became Kirchner's driver I seem to recall he was a lowly bank clerk. So yes, all very argie-fishy.

Apr 07th, 2016 - 02:26 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Hey Thinky,
Apr 08th, 2016 - 05:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I responded to some of your claims and asked you some questions in another thread about 24 hours ago but you have yet to respond. Since it is relevant to this thread too, I have copied some of my text below for your convenience.
--------
“They contain thousands and thousands of names from rich people...Not one single Yankee name on them.................... What does it mean..?”
1. Given your poor track record with reporting “facts” here, I am unconvinced by this claim. What on earth is a “Yankee name”? The US probably has more surnames than any other country given its history of immigration. Have you really gone through the “thousands and thousands of names” and found “Not one single Yankee name”? I suspect not. It just needs a person to find “one single” “Yankee name” on the list and your claim is disproved. Let's try. A. Aaron. There are people in the US called Aaron! You are disproved with the first name!!!! :-D
2. Even if your claim happens to be true, there could be a very good reason why US residents have less need to use off-shore accounts for tax avoidance... If you have a legal, safe option like that why would you need to go offshore? The UK has a version of the same thing with ISAs etc. Does Argentina?
---------
I now read that there 214,000 entities and they are not currently searchable: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-35954224 so it looks like my suspicion of your claim of Not one single Yankee name on them was well-founded.
So
1. I Think you cannot possibly claim there is Not one single Yankee name on them.
2. I Think you invented this claim.
3. I Think that you do this all the time.
4. I Think I am correct.
5. I Think your response will be to call me a Turnip.
6. I Think that if you call me a Turnip it will be because you have been rumbled as a fraud again.
7. I Think you eat neeps regularly (nothing wrong with that).
8. I Think I'll stop now before it gets too silly.
9. I Think you smell of elderberries.
10. Oops!

I Think I will open a bottle of that Austral Elderflower Cordial my neighbour to the north, widow McCxxxxxxxx, gave me last year....
I better pour meself a large La Alazana Chubutean single malt too...

Never thought we would see the day. Good to see.

Apr 11th, 2016 - 12:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0In the nose, spirity and sour top notes preside over a fatty, unctuous base: Butterscotch and a still-sizzling wok-full of chicken in chilli and black bean sauce. Getting into the mouth reveals a thin, watery texture and toffee sweetness alongside dried orange peel and highlights of white pepper and lime juice. The finish gives the powdery sweetness of candy and a very sharp, very tart papaya and lemon salad. Very interesting and different with an intriguing disparity.

And you still haven't answered any of my questions. So your lack of a defence strengthens by claim that your Not one single Yankee name was a false statement, untruth, lie. Bad boy!
I Think I will open a bottle of that Austral Elderflower Cordial ... I better pour meself a large La Alazana Chubutean single malt too...
Sounds like a disgusting combination! Not only are you telling porkies but you are wasting malt whisky! The only thing that should ever be added to a single malt is an optional splash of water.

You are a persistent Anglo, arent you, lad?
I better answer your concerns before your blood pressure explodes...
Firstly........., NO..., I do not smell of elderberries...
Secondly...., The cordial and the malt were NOT poured on the same glass...., you goddam turnip!
Some use water..., some table crackers.
Others use beer..., others bitter chocolate.
Elderflower cordial works fine for me... Its sweet acidic subtleness cleans and prepares my palate very effectively before enjoying me dram...

Apr 11th, 2016 - 10:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unlikely. It was 117/78 the other day. It is usually 120/80 or thereabouts.
So, let us see how you did with my questions.
1. I Think you cannot possibly claim there is “Not one single Yankee name on them”. UNANSWERED
2. I Think you invented this claim. UNANSWERED
3. I Think that you do this all the time. UNANSWERED
4. I Think I am correct. UNANSWERED
5. I Think your response will be to call me a Turnip. YES. I was correct. An Anglo Turnip no less. I'll take that as the compliment it was clearly intended to be.
6. I Think that if you call me a Turnip it will be because you have been rumbled as a fraud again. YES. Given the answers 1-5, it looks like this was correct too.
9. I Think you smell of elderberries. NO. Well, it IS the wrong time of year for them.
The cordial and the malt were NOT poured on the same glass...., you goddam turnip!
Hey, watch your blood pressure. ;-)

Oh, yes, I knew that. I chose to ignore it see if it would get you going. It did! :-D Are elders a common feature of Patagonia?
@43 ;-)
Think's track record of inventing facts means that I cannot take him seriously.
I have zero expectation of him ever admitting his lies, but it is fun to occasionally challenge him and watch his contortions of deflection. It is curious that he goes on about turnips ad nauseum, but simply mentioning elderberries gets him bent out of shape. Very odd.
Woooooooow....
