I want to know everything about Buenos Aires, AR.?
I've read a lot about it and I know a lot but I want to hear from a native or someone who's been. I just want to know things you can't find out by reading up on. I really want to go there someday but I want to make sure before I spend a bunch of money.

It's ace. I spent 2 weeks there during 2007. It has lots of wonderful different neighbourhoods, a lot of history, some fantastic restaurants/bars/nightclubs, great shopping and very friendly people. Better still, you can combine your trip to BA with a short hope across the River Plate to Colonia, Uruguay (very pretty, peaceful little town) and/or Iguazu Falls (spectacular, world-famous waterfall). Don't shop in the trendiest areas, mind - prices are the same as Western prices, to trap Western tourist shoppers. Head about four stops north of the centre on the metro to find where Portenos shop (and prices to match). Take an afternoon in San Telmo to watch people dancing tango in the squares, and visit La Boca on a Friday for the markets.

In my experience, the wealthy relocate to 'poor' countries for the fine living. It is a little known fact that countries such as Chad and New Guiny have a widely wealthy populace. The countries are also crime free and there is no poverty.
2 :
Entrepreneurs move away from places like America because of the burdensome personal and corporate tax rates, over-regulation and constant meddling by the feds. If you want them to move back, bringing their companies and jobs with them, you'll need to address those concerns.

Do Liberals think John Stewart makes them informed and smarter?
Do Liberals think John Stewart makes them informed and smarter?
Ed Lasky points us to this revealing article from Commentary Magazine's blog by James Kirchick that proves John Stewart doesn't know squat about foreign policy. The scary part is that Stewart's Daily Show is taken as gospel by millions of under 30 dimwitted Americans who believe the world is straight man to Stewart's comic "genius." Hezb'allah, of course, has several attacks credited to them outside of Lebanon, specifically the bombing of a Jewish community center in Argentina -an attack that killed 85 people and is considered the worst terrorist attack in that country's history. And Hamas has been involved in international terror since its founding, funnelling money gleaned from "charity" groups all over the world to violent Palestinian terrorists in Syria and elsewhere. The fact that Stewart was either unaware of these facts shows that the joke is on him. Scott, you are correct 100% and these ObamaCrats are still blaming Palin's cross hairs for the AZ shooting! (Pathetic)

So you get your opinions from a blog on an obscure magazine website? I think the real question is, do conservatives think random gibberish lends their attack rants credence?

What's really scary is that so many people are willing to form their opinions based on nightly comedy routines. I have no problem with John Stewart. He's a funny (if misguided) guy. The problem is that the dumb-masses actually use his comedy show as a news source. What's next? Are we going to start getting parenting advice from Charlie Sheen?

So, this guy simply says that Jon Stewart doesn't know anything about foreign policy, and you take that as some kind of irrefutable fact of life? Dude, I'm not even a liberal and I understand why they laugh at your lack of logic.

Well, like it or not, the topics that Jon Stewart speaks about are all newsworthy and he speaks hard truths from both sides of the aisle. But, it is a comedy show, so of course they don't think it makes them informed or smarter. It makes them laugh. The point of the Jon Stewart show is that the politics we see today are silly and very laughable. These idiots in Washington are a bunch of morons and Stewart points this out. If you don't like Stewart, then don't watch him. Many republicans watch his show too by the way, because Stewart makes fun of both parties. If it's laughable, he'll make a joke out of it.

It's a sad commentary when comedians present the news more accurately than a whole TV network devoted to it.

Easy big fella, the one thing the left will defend even over the President is Jon Stewart, because he delivers the news with a laugh. They will tell you it's a comedy show, so leave him alone, what they don't tell you it's comedy propaganda show sponsored by the liberal left.

And of course everything that comes out of the Israeli propaganda machine (for example the unproven allegation that Hezb'allah was involved in the Argentina attacks in '92 and '94) is gospel truth?

I think most people realize that Jon Stewart is a comedy show and don't take him for the gospel. While on the other hand there are several out there (I'm not naming names) that rely on Glenn Beck to keep them informed. FOX news advertises him as a true commentator and a lot of people do believe what he says. Even to the extent of buying 'food insurance' that he advertises. At least with Jon you know it's comedy. With Beck, well lets just say that I find him hilarious.

When is the Governor of South Carolina going to call it quits?
I want to thank the AP and UPI for breaking this story. Our Governor Mark Sanford is under investigation again and this time it's not going away. I wished he'd cut his losses and get out now. BTW to Majgross and Wolf on this answers.com hey fellas you pull your ,out of your rectal fill in the blank. They are Governor "Lost Cause" Sanfords cheerleaders they see nothing wrong with the affair that Mark Sanford had. They don't think the military should wade into this fiasco. They are drinking Kool-Aid and smoking latin lettuce. One even said he's done some training with Special Forces Advisors and such they must have let him fast rope out of a Helicopter and he fell on his head eh Majgross anyway tomorrow the dubious Governor is holding a press conference to answer his new charges: using state owned Aircraft to take personal and political trips which is unlawful. And I am still going to ask hopefully to his face did he earn the rank of Captain fair and square when he was at Charleston Air Force base but he's going to lie to my face just like he lied about the Appalachian trail by way of Argentina eh Governor Sanford,likes to kiss pigs, can't control his Lieutenant Governor who has committed so many traffic speeding felonies it is not even funny...but I forgot he has the DI thing in his favor "Diplomatic Immunity" he can speed he do things that would get regular people a police record. He commit felonious acts and still remain a state constable. Mark Sanford can accept money from people that train animals to fight and kill each other call them chicken cock fighters. Someone cried because cock fighting is a felony they want it reduced to a mis-da-whatchamacallit (I am being funny) but even before Michael Vick people were doing this long ago and even today people stage dog and chicken fights. But the cops never seem to be able to catch the crooks. BTW while I am on a Governor Mark Sanford roll...he has a Supreme Court Justice her name is Jean Toal (she looks Bi) she has been involved in so many hit and runs and she claimed she could not remember hitting someone's car then she drove away. Like the Lieutenant Gov. she has DI and she thinks people are scared of her. This state is a freak show not all of it or the people but you can get a joke a minute from this place the Confederate flag, that horrible slang south-thern accent don't blame me blame your Governor he makes me detest your state most of all. A big liar and coward. Did you know Prince Harry of England a kid has more gumption than Mark Sanford. He wanted to fight in Iraq and the Royal Household would not let him so he sneaked over to the war zone. But he did not lie he told them he wanted to fight. And he was by hook or crook. Mark Sanford has done no time as far as I know in Iraq or Afghanistan. Prove me wrong. Stay tuned at 9:00 AM on Monday we have our say with our LAMEDuck Governor.

South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has proven himself to be an embarrassment not only to his family, but more importantly, to his state and to our nation. Twice in my lifetime, the extracurricular activities of my state's governor (New York) has proven to be an embarrassment to us. The first time was in 1963 when Governor Nelson Rockefeller divorced his wife of 31 years to marry 'Happy' Murphy. These actions cost Rockefeller the 1964 GOP presidential nomination. Infidelity reared its ugly head again when Rockefeller died, in 1979, when he was with his 25 year old secretary. The scandalous circumstances of his death were widely reported. In March of 2008, Governor Eliot Spitzer was implicated in a prostitution ring. He resigned within days of the public disclosure. The actions of Governor Mark Sanford can not be excused. They go beyond having an affair. He disappeared for days. He broke his bond with the people of South Carolina. His trust and his ability to effectively govern has been irreparably damaged He simply must go.. His repeated apologies, and draping himself around his Christian faith, and saying God will make him a better leader does not fly with me. As a congressman in Washington, DC, he shared a townhouse with other good 'Christian evangelical' lawmakers including Nevada Senator John Ensign and former Mississippi Congressman Chip Pickering, who, since then, have ALL been implicated with extramarital affairs. Must be something in the drinking water, what do you think? Sanford has to go. And, now, we find out about his expensive plane trips? The so-called 'fiscal conservative' who orders his staff to use 'both sides' of a 'post-it note.' What a hypocrite in so many ways. Fiscal Conservative? Hypocrite Evangelical Christian with High Moral Values? Hypocrite Role Model as Governor/Leader of his state? Hypocrite Devoted Husband? Hypocrite Attentive Father?

How do I get my parents to let me have some freedom when I'm home from college?
I go to college on the other side of the country from my childhood home. I go to a liberal school and I have a lot of freedom. I have always gotten good grades and have never been in trouble with the law or with my school in any capacity, and I'm even a student leader. Despite my pristine record and my daughterly, very helpful manner around the house, my parents refuse to let me have any freedoms, despite the fact that I am 19 and don't live in the house anymore. I have a boyfriend that I've been seeing for 9 months now, and I've met his parents and he's met mine. We are going to be separated for 6 months because he is going to China for study abroad and I'm going to Argentina. I want to visit him for 4 days, and I'm using my own money to buy the plane ticket (I had a job at school). However, my parents think it's "too much" for me to want to go visit him, and are making it really difficult for me to go, basically saying that they won't let me. Instead, my mother wants me to stay at home and do paperwork for her for free. I don't even have a car at home, and my parents insist on instituting a curfew, even though I'm in college. I just can't deal with arguing with them anymore. How do I assert myself and stop being under their constant attempts at controlling me at home? Yes, I am living at the house now- I come home for winter and summer breaks. I would have gotten my own living arrangement or been out of state, but I'm only in the states till July, and then I'm in Argentina for study abroad. Also, I don't have a car because they sold it after I went to college, without my permission. And by "freedoms," I mean things like allowing me to visit my friends, having me do other things besides just chores and errands around the house- which my brother does not have to help with at all. I hope that helped!

1 :
Why going "home" after College anyways? Try to rent an apartment with a friend (to ease the burden of rent and other expenses) and live a normal adult life, and "visit" your parents on occasions. I knew right after College, I couldn't go back home and live the life my parents wanted for me. Get room mates, work it out !
2 :
I can't help but be confused by your question. Do you live in your parents house while writing this, or do you live somewhere else? When you say "refuse to let me have any freedoms," what does that mean? Also, from what you say it sounds like your parents are the reason you don't have a car at home- did they not get you one, or did they force you not to buy one? If you want to be treated like an adult, then you need to present yourself as one. Bargain. If you're upset about the curfew, tell them that they have the right to lock their doors at night whenever they want but that they no longer have control over whether you will be inside or outside those doors on any particular night. If they don't want to be disturbed after a certain time of night, it's their prerogative. As for the plane trip, find someone else to take you to the airport. Although they might be trying to influence you to keep your money for something they might interpret as more important, it's your money to spend or squander as you please. If they don't want to drive you to the airport, then it's not their job. If they're going to refuse you money next year based on how you spend your money now, then it's still your choice between their money and seeing your boyfriend. No matter how things happen, it's still your decision to make. You can be a dutiful daughter and an adult at the same time- just recognize that you can't control their input if they want to make things difficult.
3 :
Try to stay with a friend while your in the area if its only a short time. Get a roommate that can find another person for the apartment to continue the lease. You are 19, educated and clearly capable to make your own decisions. You live in their household but you are legal age. If you were to make a wise decision to go out with friends against their will what will they do? If you can no longer stand how they are talk to them. If a good talk doesnt work for the situation you have no other choice but to not be dependant on living there temporarily. You will have to find another place.
4 :
If things are so bad and you want your freedom, then that's easy. Get a job. Pay for your own school, bills, supplies, utilities, etc. Get your own place. Simple. They can't tell you what to do or how to spend your money and you don't owe them anything. If that is not something you want to do then you're going to have to deal with the issues at home. They are paying for college and you get to come back to a home with a family there for you when you feel like it. You don't have to pay rent...but you get to do chores. Don't you think you owe them at least that if not more? You don't pay for anything and yet you are acting like the child that you still are and you want to have your freedoms at home. Pay rent, utilities, your own food, etc and work that up with your parents and then you will be able to have your freedoms and show how responsible and adult you are. I think they have a good point about not visiting your boyfriend. It's only been 9 months and you're 19. That isnt' long enough to get to know someone and you are still very young and have some growing up to do. What happens when you go to see him and you get in a fight or he acts like he doesn't know you....you'll be stuck in an unfamiliar place alone. Not a smart idea. Save the money for that apartment, paying for school, bills, etc and saving up for a car. By the way......many people don't have cars and they manage to get to work just fine. If you want something bad enough, you fight for it and do whatever you can to get it. As long as you are under their rook, you have to obey their rules. It's very simple. They aren't controlling you. They are being your parents and caring about you. If you don't want that........well, you know what to do by now. Freedom costs money. You also will go a long way with you parents if you cut the attitude and begin to grow up and appreciate them.

I think you need to assert yourself a little more and basically tell them that your going, you deserve to go, and they are not going to to stop you. My God, girl, you sound like the child of everyones dreams and they are giving you a hard time about your freedom? I think they need to take a good long look at your track record and act accordingly.
I go to college on the other side of the country from my childhood home. I go to a liberal school and I have a lot of freedom. I have always gotten good grades and have never been in trouble with the law or with my school in any capacity, and I'm even a student leader. Despite my pristine record and my daughterly, very helpful manner around the house, my parents refuse to let me have any freedoms, despite the fact that I am 19 and don't live in the house anymore. I have a boyfriend that I've been seeing for 9 months now, and I've met his parents and he's met mine. We are going to be separated for 6 months because he is going to China for study abroad and I'm going to Argentina. I want to visit him for 4 days, and I'm using my own money to buy the plane ticket (I had a job at school). However, my parents think it's "too much" for me to want to go visit him, and are making it really difficult for me to go, basically saying that they won't let me. Instead, my mother wants me to stay at home and do paperwork for her for free. I don't even have a car at home, and my parents insist on instituting a curfew, even though I'm in college. I just can't deal with arguing with them anymore. How do I assert myself and stop being under their constant attempts at controlling me at home? Yes, I am living at the house now- I come home for winter and summer breaks. I would have gotten my own living arrangement or been out of state, but I'm only in the states till July, and then I'm in Argentina for study abroad. Also, I don't have a car because they sold it after I went to college, without my permission. And by "freedoms," I mean things like allowing me to visit my friends, having me do other things besides just chores and errands around the house- which my brother does not have to help with at all. I hope that helped!

Why going "home" after College anyways? Try to rent an apartment with a friend (to ease the burden of rent and other expenses) and live a normal adult life, and "visit" your parents on occasions. I knew right after College, I couldn't go back home and live the life my parents wanted for me. Get room mates, work it out !

I can't help but be confused by your question. Do you live in your parents house while writing this, or do you live somewhere else? When you say "refuse to let me have any freedoms," what does that mean? Also, from what you say it sounds like your parents are the reason you don't have a car at home- did they not get you one, or did they force you not to buy one? If you want to be treated like an adult, then you need to present yourself as one. Bargain. If you're upset about the curfew, tell them that they have the right to lock their doors at night whenever they want but that they no longer have control over whether you will be inside or outside those doors on any particular night. If they don't want to be disturbed after a certain time of night, it's their prerogative. As for the plane trip, find someone else to take you to the airport. Although they might be trying to influence you to keep your money for something they might interpret as more important, it's your money to spend or squander as you please. If they don't want to drive you to the airport, then it's not their job. If they're going to refuse you money next year based on how you spend your money now, then it's still your choice between their money and seeing your boyfriend. No matter how things happen, it's still your decision to make. You can be a dutiful daughter and an adult at the same time- just recognize that you can't control their input if they want to make things difficult.

Try to stay with a friend while your in the area if its only a short time. Get a roommate that can find another person for the apartment to continue the lease. You are 19, educated and clearly capable to make your own decisions. You live in their household but you are legal age. If you were to make a wise decision to go out with friends against their will what will they do? If you can no longer stand how they are talk to them. If a good talk doesnt work for the situation you have no other choice but to not be dependant on living there temporarily. You will have to find another place.

If things are so bad and you want your freedom, then that's easy. Get a job. Pay for your own school, bills, supplies, utilities, etc. Get your own place. Simple. They can't tell you what to do or how to spend your money and you don't owe them anything. If that is not something you want to do then you're going to have to deal with the issues at home. They are paying for college and you get to come back to a home with a family there for you when you feel like it. You don't have to pay rent...but you get to do chores.
