The sport of shooting Cobos
What unites Cristina and Nestor Kirchner, Mauricio Macri, Elisa Carrio, Aníbal Fernández, Agustín Rossi, Miguel Angel Pichetto, Luis D'Elia , Moyano, Hebe Bonafini, the "Campora", Hermes Binner, "Open Letter" and Amado Boudou? Curiously, their challenge to Julio Cobos, who has been the icing on the cake as Beatriz Sarlo fire ship that The Nation published on top in its issue of Friday 19 February. Each
surely has his reasons and are unlikely to them. What is curious is the coincidence of attacking an officer who is second in importance constitutional hierarchy and anyone who alleged no violation of its institutional obligations, the commission of a felony or a disqualifying fact for the exercise of their role.
cite, just in a country institutionally upside down as Argentina, which is not "right" that the Vice President elected on the same formula that the President should remain in office if they disagree with it does not tolerate the slightest political or institutional analysis, much least what it cost the country a history of Chacho Álvarez. The attack coincides
a president who has chosen his successor, for more, his own wife, even without performing an assembly or meeting of officials of his party with others who have left the party for which they were elected legislators without giving up his seat, a party formed from it adversary, while others have settled their political allies in reaching wantonly destroying the party "ally", others who have gone through the ends of the ideological spectrum have held the highest political savvy the nineties and today are fundamentalists of its antithesis; or who have enriched themselves and profit in a miserable with their constituencies without slowing even before the health of members of their unions, participating on criminal gangs involved in drug trafficking, and said that despite "opposition" have agreed to several initiatives of the ruling pathetic, with all that background, I say, tearing his hair out because the vice president is not due as lapdog to the chairperson and at both should go, is, at best, inconsistent.
Listening to them, it seems that if the Vice President resigned, with that reach for Argentina to enter into an unstoppable launch pad, which would end inflation, there would be no more foreign debt, ending poverty, retirees would charge what they play and do not steal more resources for patronage purposes, they reduce the prices of public works to half of its value because there would be corruption, increase legal certainty stopping the flight of capital, investment grow, bring down unemployment, real wages would rise, teachers begin classes, judges independent would not imperil the assets of the Central Bank, sick of social work would begin to receive remedies instead of poison, would lower interest rates would all be happy. Perhaps to be no more heavy rain in the city ...
That's what the president says, it would be understandable. Besides, nobody listens. But join the chorus of unpresentable Elisa Carrio and Mauricio Macri, and even one of the greatest voices of the intelligentsia in Argentina, as Beatriz Sarlo, kircheristas repeating the same arguments that have been challenged by leading political scientists of the academy, is incomprehensible.
Julio Cobos's resignation would plunge to Argentina in a grave institutional crisis. His performance from its departure from the coalition government in Argentina has created a feeling that is the guarantee that in case of shocks that nobody wants, the country would never again go through the dramatic days of the five presidents. And that same performance has shown that in all that has taken time any action that could be considered improper function, or conspiracy, or "destituyente."
the contrary, has cordializado and helped defuse many tense political situation in an irresponsible manner by the presidential couple, as their vote in the case of Resolution 125 itself, which brought the country a balm of tranquility amid the madness unleashed from the ruling .
It is true that for some candidates to the presidential succession, the popular support that counts is annoying. It seems, however, that the history of their participation in the formula with Cristina Kirchner as unfit to be "in pectore" their aspiration, as any city \u200b\u200bcould do much more when his own party, which ultimately is the only possibly affected by this aspiration, has decided to open its doors to international competition, which he has confirmed that she will submit. Those calling for his resignation
invoke the lack of precedents in other countries. But is that there are precedents in other countries of Presidents to take ownership of particular resources to decide the allocation discretion? Or they pretend slapping assets backing the currency of his own accord? Could anyone imagine the U.S. president, for example, deciding for themselves to take over the assets of the Federal Reserve against the decision of the monetary authority, without congressional authorization? Or one will decide for public works or federal resources will be rotated to one or another state? Could anyone imagine in Brazil? Or in Uruguay? Or in Chile?
Could anyone imagine that any of these countries will change the date of the elections by majority decision circumstantial without a broad consensus? Anyone could imagine that the investigation of a 700% enrichment of the ruling family during his tenure can be closed by having a judge vulnerable?
But also: is it forbidden to disagree? Does this mean that the opposition would agree on anything forbidden by the government? Is this the democracy we aspire? Cobos
's presence in that position is even greater assurance of stability for the government. Do you not think what might happen, or already have happened, if the set before an eventual successor to chaos rather than a radical, was a Peronist? The facts show
rather Cobos trying to fulfill its institutional role with the utmost caution and can not be said to be leading the opposition. The only thing is now leading the polls, which is no small thing but it should in any case be a warning to those who demonize from the flanks.
The political opposition is clearly led by the parliamentary opposition blocs with an excellent approach work featuring a wide range in which important leaders of all the colors of democracy in Argentina, including Elisa Carrio, Felipe Sola, Federico Pinedo and even Pino Solana . And at the level of party politics by the main opposition party, the UCR, who is observing the process of regrouping and reorganizing truly commendable standards.
The National Committee, chaired by Ernesto Sanz, parliamentary blocs and chaired by Senator Gerardo Morales and Deputy Oscar Aguad show increasing strength in their positions and an ability to articulate learning coalitions show the old party in one of his most notable historical problems, it was his difficulty making arrangements. The transcendent processes of new parties (the Civic Coalition, the Pro, GEN) and the emergence of Peronist-minded Republican and institutional, in turn, help to be optimistic for the future.
not seem a good attitude on the part of the valuable leaders forming the arch opponent distract or weaken the possibilities of a strong and articulate work together to thwart the official quirks opening a gap with a staff that has proven to be closer to the sense that of madness and surely must provide various services to the institutional reconstruction of Argentina from the role it occupies, which in any case should receive the greatest possible support and legitimacy.
