Fernandez expects consistency from Obama
According to the Associated Press, Cristina Fernandez, the Argentine president compares the US position on the Crimea to our position on the Falkland Islands;
During a speech in Paris, Cristina Fernandez compared the referendum in the Black Sea peninsula next to Russia to last year’s referendum by Falkland Islanders to remain a British territory. The southern Atlantic islands are known in Spanish as the “Islas Malvinas” and Argentina insists that Britain usurped them 180 years ago.
“Something that is fundamental for preserving world peace, for respecting international law, is to not have a double standard when it is time to make decisions. You can’t be in favor of territorial integrity in Crimea and against territorial integrity with the Malvinas in Argentina,” Fernandez said.
While most Latin American nations support Argentina’s position on the islands, citizens of the Falkland Islands Government voted by 99.8 percent to remain British.
Yeah, well, don’t expect consistency from this administration, dear. Remember how they supported the Honduran people against their president at the same time they were not supporting the Iranian people against their president. I don’t support Fernandez in any way, shape or form, however she does represent how the Obama Administration is losing support, not only from most Americans, but also his foreign allies. But I do expect him to flip on this one, on the advise of Dumber…er…I mean, Biden.

And next week we’ll be hearing from the governor of Hawai’i…
LMAO. Thanks for the spew alert Reaperman!
So let me see if I get the gist of this. Cristina Fernandez wants the Obama Administration to be coupled with terms like consistency, integrity, logical thinking and well thought out foreign policy decisions, that right? Hahaha. Well Cristina, welcome to OUR world.
Cristina is doing her best to drive the Argentine economy down to where it’s equal to the U.S.’s economy. As is usual for Argentine politics, when things begin to go to shit, wave the “Malvinas is Ours” flag.
Dear Fernandez,
As the old saying goes, “Shit in one hand, wish in the other.”
We LIVE here, and the only consistency we get from him is the bone jobs day in, day out.
Far be it from me to defend the Glorious Leader, but what exactly is this bitch’s complaint?
If she’s saying that we should endorse the Crimea vote because we endorsed the Falklands vote, then she recognizes the fact that her country can piss up a rope where those islands are concerned. If she’s saying that we should say “fuck the Falklands vote” because we said “fuck the Crimea vote,” then she admits that their supposed claim to the islands is just a chickenshit imperialistic land grab (exactly what they accuse the Brits of doing in the first place) and that she herself is a pissant Vlad Putin-wannabe.
Basically what we have here is an idiot criticizing another idiot for being an idiot.
