    President Hugo Chavez delivered a bizarre attack on the Queen when the firebrand Venezuelan leader demanded Britain return the Falkland Islands to Argentina. [^] Fuck you.

    Falklands became British in 1650's. Argentina didn't exist until 1816. So, how the hell are the Falklands Argentine?

      So he thinks that we should give up islands that have been claimed by Britain since the 1765 and give them to a country that has only existsed since 1816! There is no historical precidence on Argintinian claims to the Islands (spain might have as might France) but as the Islands had been claimed by Britain and the unoccupied islands Populated by the Brits in 1833 and been continuously occupied eversince, I would think that this gives us the rights. It is worthy of note that the crisis always rears it head when Argentina is in political trouble What next Mexico getting Texas, New Mexico and southern California back?

          Sorry, you can't have the country... We would, however, be willing to pay interest on it, if you'll accept that interest in the form of politicians... Got a few we'd like to get rid of...

                    Geithner, maybe... But I think Obama is doing a decent job so far. Yes, I know you're going to whine about any politician that isn't Ron Paul, so don't expect me to bother responding when you do.

                              Please don't send him over here, the pavements are soiled enough. If you must send him somewhere, how about where the compass needle always points north, no matter the direction you stand.

                                      They can have Texas, New Mexico, and Utah, but we're keeping Hollywood. Oh, and if they refuse Utah, no deal... Seriously... Can't just take the good parts.

                                      New mexico isn't that bad. I hadn't thought of Utah. I'd be all for it if we could figure out a way to just export the people and keep the state...
