The Obama administration continued its “smart power” efforts with America’s closest ally by demanding that the UK negotiate with Argentina over the Falkland Islands. Hillary Clinton appeared with Argentina’s President Kristina Kirchner yesterday for a press conference in which she pushed for talks to settle the status of the islands — which the British already consider completely settled now. Nile Gardiner calls Hillary’s comments a “slap in the face” to the UK.

last time I heard, the islands were british by right of conquest in the falklands war. IIRC argentina signed them away as part of the peace process.
how many times will the british have to slap the argentines around before they finally get it?
The only thing surprising is that Hillery didn’t
call it a COUP.
...The British consider the matter already settled....
I would imagine so...They already kicked ass there...
Argentinians and “finally get it” are oxymorons, hee hee.
How absurd.
Negotiate what ?
i’m not surprised....
Hillary/Obama: an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE.
Supporting a Chavez funded crooked socialist Puta.
Over our loyalist ally!
The Brits should demand that we negotiate with Mexico over the status of the US southwest.
Obama and the lib’s claim the world hates the USA because of Bush, etc....Yet, the only people Obama is friendly toward are Muslims...He thumbs his nose at our traditional Allies...hmmmmmmm??? What does that tell us, kiddies????
Well, you see, the British won the Falklands War, but it was Margaret Thatcher who did it. Therefore, to all Liberals, the victory was illegitimate, because it was done by a Conservative government. It was “unfair” and must be undone.
By now every single one of our allies must see the handwriting on the wall.
America is not your friend.
I’m sorry...I said Obama was friendly only to Muslims...I forgot he was friendly also to communist, socialist terrorists also...
Correction...America IS friendly toward our allies....
Obama is the one who is not their friend.....
They supported an unconstitutional attempted takeover in Honduras, did anyone think they wouldn’t support this?
British are the big baddies of the world in Obama’s eyes and he will continue to ‘punish’ them.
This is what you get when you give an arrogant, angry wench like Hillary Clinton the job of Secretary of State...
Who is the fat guy with the chef’s hat?
Hey Europe - how you liking “The One” now?
‘Ole stupid, neanderthal, cowboy Bush is looking kinda good to you now, isn’t he?
