Slowly, slowly, catchee monkey OR, in this case The Mad Bitch (no longer of Argentina).
Sep 13th, 2016 - 01:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If she doesn't keep her mouth shut she may find her 'associates' will be resurrecting the 0.22rf Bersa pistola AKA 'The Nisman Special'. :o)
@4 and 5 Hahaha.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 02:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I suppose she could just retire in Venezuela, Cuba, or Iran, and write her memoirs in safety.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 02:26 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The 'monastery' is not a real monastery and the 'nuns' aren't nuns, only wannabees.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 04:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Still under the auspices of the Catholic Church I presume. Maybe a gift from heaven.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 04:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If the Nuns are “unfazed” by someone turning up in the middle of the night, with an assault rifle and lobbing bags of cash at them, got to be worth seeing what’s on the rest of the video, see what else goes on in the small wee hours.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 05:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0She denies wrongdoing and corruption claims there a surprise!!
Sep 13th, 2016 - 06:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Real shame she is still not in power, she could have taken the Argturds all the way back to the stone age......
Looking at the Falkalnd Islands flag flying on a foggy day here, it great!!
The article above correctly shows how the court cases against CFK distracts the former president from presenting a stronger opposition to the government.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 08:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Smart, this Macri guy.
CFK (Evita K) is not helping the image of the forces opposed to Macri.
Sep 13th, 2016 - 09:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0She is a politician who is under investigation for abusing her own position as President by profiting through corruption and is implicated in money-laundering crimes.
Her actions certainly did not serve the people of Argentina, and it would not serve them now to let her off.
Mr. Massot, what would be a more appropriate time to investigate and lay charges than now, in a timely manner. Events are still fresh and witnesses available.
We all know how the K's dragged out and tried to cover up the bombing of Argentine citizens of the Jewish community.
The Opposition should simply distance themselves from this awful woman, and carry on untainted by her involvement.

No. We do not know that--but you may think so.
You appear confused. The one who is on trial for cover up on the AMIA attack is Carlos Menem.
You may not like the Kirchners--that's your right.
Yet you don't have right to your own facts.
Menem tried to mislead the investigation, and it was during the Kirchners' governments that steps were taken in an attempt to overcome several years of cover ups.
You are truly blinded by hate--or doing as much as you can to muddy the waters.
But as Peron said, the only truth is the reality, and the true nature of the Macri government will end up being unveiled in spite of all the attempts to distract.
What is the true nature of the Macri government?
Sep 14th, 2016 - 06:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0Tell us the truth - has Marxism ever worked?
Tell us about the coverup that got Prosecutor Nisman killed.
18 months and they still do not know if he was executed or committed suicide, it has died a death,

As we all know, your role model was a Fascist. I do you a disservice referring to you as Komrade Rique, perhaps Kamerad Rique might be more appropriate?
Here's a reminder of old times you might want to post on your social media?

Sep 14th, 2016 - 04:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Now where have I heard that before ?
@16 Kanye
Reekie will tell us that Nisman's death and subsequent cover up was engineered by Macri......Santa Kretina could never have been responsible for such a cowardly act.
Can't wait to the see the circus this turns into.
