Nice. Now we're down to being thankful that she wasn't as bad as Gaddafi. Great way to never improve I guess.

As long as people don't step on others' rights, I don't see a problem with what they celebrate. Whether that's in good taste or bad is up to each individual to decide for themselves. As for myself, I am more glad that the divisiveness seems to be over than that Macri has won. I will see what...

Nothing wrong with celebrating and hoping for sanity's return. Also, there is no "venting of hate" here. What are you talking about? Funny that you're calling people here worse than La Campora yet acting exactly like them by trying to shut up those who think differently...precisely what La...

I don't blame him either. And this has nothing to do with not respecting the institutions. He could have simply said he'd hire his security team and make sure CFK can't do nothing. But no, he went the legal route, which is the way it should have gone since the judicial branch is supposed to...

He'd already said they were going to raise the minimum to adjust for inflation in the past years. This to me sounds like more in line with what Macri campaigned on rather than throwing a bone to the populists. Either way, it makes sense to do it and to your point, it's probably going to help him...

I think everyone understands what CFK is trying to do. Plenty of folks on TV have discussed it at great length. People seem to forget that this fight between Macri and CFK didn't just start when Macri won the elections on November 22nd. This has been going on for the last 8 years. CFK and FPV...

Yes. No one's arguing that. The source you quoted says: El despotismo fue una forma de gobierno que tenían algunas monarquías europeas del siglo XVIII, en las que los reyes seguían teniendo poder absoluto. English version of that says exactly the same: Despotism is a form of government in...

Jajajajaja! Pakapaka y Zamba le enseñan a los chicos que los presidentes asumen en la Casa Rosada: http://www.lanacion.com.ar/1851377-pakapaka-y-zamba-le-ensenan-a-los-chicos-que-los-presidentes-asumen-en-la-casa-rosada

Eric, congrats!! If your baby was born in a hospital in the capital then this page might help: http://www.buenosair...-del-nacimiento It says that you have up to 40 days after the birth of the baby to register him in registro civil. It also says that one of the two parents has to be present...

Its especially heavenly when these unsustainable low energy prices result in blackouts during the hottest days in the summer because there isn't enough money to fix the current infrastructure or to buy oil or what have you. You don't have water to shower or drink. You are especially blessed if...

I honestly don't think its going to last like this. This is PR, pure and simple. As soon as Macri is president I'd be surprised if we see him "strolling through a public park" without any security. There are crazy people everywhere. Presidents should be protected from crazy people; whether...

Are you saying that every president except for Nestor and Cristina was part of the military dictatorship since they all did the traspaso in Salon Blanco of Casa Rosada? EDIT: Here's a video of all the "military dictators" before Nestor doing the ceremony in Salon Blanco of Casa Rosada...

Yes, you and I agree that the designation of Rossi as one of the directors of Banco Nacion was Nepotism. And from all your posts about "democracy" and "strong opposition to Macri in Congress" it would seem that we agree that Macri's presidency will not be despotism since despotism means absolute...

To be fair the comparison of Alonso and Rossi would be on par if Alonso's last name was Macri/Larreta/Vidal and in her CV she claimed to have law degrees or have done law courses from various non existent online schools and had claimed legal experience. None of that seems to be the case. Sure...

Her parents are Argentine and she's already applied for Argentine citizenship: http://www.diariodecuyo.com.ar/home/new_noticia.php?noticia_id=695418 Would that not make her eligible? EDIT: Also it seems that it's the decreto 102/99 that establishes the requirement for a lawyer to head the...

Simple: Denunciado = not proven guilty yet Procesado = not proven guilty yet Condenado = proven guilty Neither Macri nor Boudou have been proven to be guilty of any crimes hence any judgement against either of these right now is immature, wrong and has no legal standing whatsoever until...

The reason I mentioned Heathrow is because 1) the article is from BBC 2) Heathrow is by far the worst airport I've been through. As for requiring a visa to transit through the US being something annoying. The UK has exactly the same deal with "Direct Airside Transit" visas. You can check out the...

"Our security protocols are needlessly tedious, and the connection process for passengers arriving from overseas is horrendously time-consuming. All passengers arriving from other countries are required to clear immigration, re-check their bags, and undergo the Transport Security Administration...

I was quoted 42K (no not Kirchneristas, thousand!) pesos for a Reclining chair with massage and whatnot. Gave me a tiny heart attack. Stumbled out of the store half paralyzed and fell into a furniture store run by nice, old Kirchnerista ladies. They quoted me one price of 9000 pesos for a piece...

I personally prefer the free market system, however, I don't think the adjustment is going to go over well with people here. A lot of the times what works in one place doesn't always work in another (e.g. "democracy" and the Middle East). So in the case of Argentina I think just randomly making...
