  • "Chavez, in Venezuela, he's not able to govern." xD

  • Also, it may be interesting, I'm from Ohio, to hear someone say Santa Barbara the way he did. The anglicism of the word inevitably followed the Mexican War.

  • I didn't even know Paraguy had a national senate.

  • joandino, what the heck are you talking about!!!?? What does being from Paraguay have to do with this MP not speaking good English? And why do you apologise?? Do you think English-speaking people speak good Spanish?? I'm really proud that this guy had the guts to deliver a lecture in the States the way he did, even when he struggled with English. You know nothing about him and his achievements... so shut the heck up. People like you are a disgrace to Paraguay.

  • i hate demagogues

  • Milhaus...!

  • bien por Mateo Balmelli, cuantos senadores y diputados podrian expresar de esta manera sus ideas...si es que alguno tiene ideas!!

  • and he doesnt know shit about south america!!!
