We are Pirates

According to CK.
Military exercises down in the Falklands which they have been doing for donkeys years.
How does she release her opinion? On Twitter FFS!
How Statesman/woman like is that?
I ROFL'd when I heard it and I think I'll stay a pirate.

My husband introduced me to her Twitter page a couple of days ago... I find it particularly amusing (and typical) that she has disabled all the features that allow anyone whatsoever to respond to her bullshit!

Its the old magicians trick. Scream "what in the world is that OVER THERE!" then while people are distracted, stuff everything in sight into your pockets, and claim it all disappeared by "magic"

But has she built up a tolerance to Iocane powder? That will be her downfall.

Aren't you going a bit too far by flatly dismissing 170 thousand people as "politically ignorant"?

Not that you said this, but it reminds me of what was proposed in the past by some politicians in the country (many citizens still think this way) that "qualified voting" should be introduced , so the "politically ignorant" -who are very numerous, apparently more than the "politically-capable"- don't decide elections. This means in summary: if you're "ignorant", you shouldn't be allowed to vote...

How does following the twitterings of the president make them politically ignorant?

For those who don't know the map of Argentina here is a example.

Therefore she isn't ignorant, the reverse is truth

I'll see your "reverse" and raise you...

In 1831, Vernet attempted to assert his monopoly on seal hunting rights. This led him to capture the American ships Harriet, Superior and Breakwater. As a reprisal, the United States sent Captain Silas Duncan of the USS Lexington to recover the confiscated property. After finding what he considered proof that at least four American fishing ships had been captured, plundered, and even outfitted for war, Duncan took seven prisoners aboard the Lexington and charged them with piracy.

The fact that 170k people read Cristina's twitterings doesn't necessarily mean they agree with her - they may read it just for laughs.

She has a 28% approval rating, and about an 80% "revulsion" rating - people who get irritated just by looking at her picture. Perhaps 8% approve of her government but find her personally revolting.
