the world press sees this as a great accomplishment but being from where i am i must say that its just a political move from the govenment..

There have been at five "partys" that are opposed to the govenment (the media groups that control the information and the news, the Farmer that produce the income of the country, the church that criticizes the govenment cause of their actions and neglects, The Opposite Political parties, and a Vicepresident that voted No to an Important law), almost every single one of the controversial laws that have been discussed in the senate these last 3 years are all just to give the governing power more control over every little aspect of the country.


The international press has covered it but some have forgotten that 2 years ago the big fight was the farmers vs the government that caused a downfall in the agrultural exports.

last year the big fight was against the multimedium that is Grupo clarin (a multinational media buinsess that had 30% of the media here in argentina including TV radio and newspaper press),

and now this year it is the Church this law is a huge FUCK YOU to the church and their wanting to control the "morals" of the traditionally immoral country. We may me seen as being very religious but in reality we arent, our politics isnt as Religious driven as the USA, there is no Republican vs Democrats here its a big grey area.

Of course, Many of you will be happy about this law but what i see is that over the past few years the Ex- President and his Wife the actual/current president have been eliminating the competition, their opposers, and any kind of criticizing and external pressures so as to have the peoples vote NEXT year.. yes NEXT year.. The kirchner have been ruleing for the past 7 years..

Also, The biggest opposition Politicaly and a Posible President is Mauricio Macri who now is being indicted for illegal tapping of phones. It was most likely a set up.

Meanwhile, This govenment gives cheap entertainment in the form of football, wine and Chorizos (hot dogs is the most similar thing you can find) entertaining and paying walfare to the poor making them easy votes or payable voters.


In addition to all this, over the past years the level of poverty (statistic wise) has been drawn and disfigured into a nice level as the INDEC (the principal statistic index of the country) has been lying about the inflation and the % of poverty, making the general public un aware of how deep in shit we really are

So in conclution, i am happy the law was passed it is a landmark and its good for turisim and trade but the The View I want to present is that this LAW was pass just to fuck up the church as they have been accusing the government of several things, Statistic tampering, paying for votes, disaproving every move they make

the Church has made their own polls and statistics that reveal a very bad economical situation that is more, that was more real and adecuate to reality that the situation that the INDEC shows.
This brought serious problems to the Government

This law was well We WILL FUCK YOU IN THE ASS to the Church.

What I see is that the real dangers, and the real problems are not adressed and the govenment only acts in its self interest and their greed for more power. it is not crazy to say these Two (Nestor kirchner and his wife) could say in the presidency for atleast 8 more years alternateing one and the other making themselfs rich and leaving a poor country with a huge debt behind.

I only Hope there is a law that is passed that directs the govements efforts to try to solve one just one of the real problems we as a country we face..

the Megamineing that is Tearing and polluting towns in the north, the ever increasing gap between the rich and the poor, the Huge Education deficit, the High College dropout rate, the Huge External Debt we have, the Gas crisis that is not being mentioned,
the always increasing INFLATION and the Huge transportation problem there is in the capital city BUENOS AIRES..


the Future of my country seems grim and I dont know what will happen to us in the future..

Please explain more? I don't really understand what you're getting at.

The law simply "It gives same-sex couples equal marriage rights, including the ability to adopt children." Why do you see this as a bad thing? I'm sorry if I'm reading what you said wrong, but I've read it 3 times now and still do not understand.

Wait a minute, how is it a political move when it's one of the most controversial things a government can do in a religious country? A political move of the cliff, maybe... (like the other people I didn't really understand the entire post so)

this is a part from the blog..

The View I want to present is that this LAW is just Made to fuck up the church as they have been accusing the government of Statistic tampering by making their own polls and statistics that reveal a very bad economical situation that is more, that was more real and adecuate to reality that the situation that the INDEC shows. This law was well We WILL FUCK YOU IN THE ASS...

the govenment is using this law as they have used other laws to make the press the people and the senate and the "congress" vote these issues instead of the real issues.

I NEVER said the law was bad..
its just to win over some votes and we are not a religious country though we may seem as one..

the votes in this country arent made cause of religious intentions, people here vote cause they really like the candidate or not and not by how religious they are as some people do in the USA its not as black and white it is in the USA or CANADA for that matter, I dont know that much about canadas voting patterns or the sociology behind it..

yes. before liberal americans start blowing the Argentina government for their new law, they should look deeper in to the situation and see the real agenda for what it is.

Sure, maybe the government doesn't deserve praise if it was for an agenda. But at least something good has happened?

What I believe caelym is saying is that the euphoria of this "good" thing happening (I'm not against gay rights, though not really for it either, but I placed the word good in quotes because I believe we should hesitate before bringing "good" and "evil" into political discussion -- when you do that, you turn politics into a religion, which is in some ways even more dangerous than religion in its better known form) is distracting people from realizing what's really going on. And what's really going on, if what the OP has said is true, is probably going to effect society in a much, much bigger way.

No one is saying it is a bad thing in itself. The point is that it is useful to be cognizant of the larger context.

You are forgetting this law was not passed by the "government" block but by people from every party.

Senators from the government party also voted "no" for this law. So your way of though shatters instantly.

http://spreadsheets.google.com/lv?key=t9Yq8fHMIU3NOGHdg_Woi0Q&f=true&gid=0

Here you can see a list of the votes. "FPV" is the current governing block. You can see lines by FPV in red (meaning the voted "no") as well as lines by the opposition in green, meaning they voted "yes".

If anything the law was passed because the church + company's only argument to not pass the law was "children have the right to have a mother and a father" or citing old laws that mention the figure of a father and mother when referring to families.

Hell, even look at the spreadsheet and find "Gerardo Morales" (near the bottom). He voted yes to the law and he's the president to the main opposing block, the UCR.

If this really was Gov vs Opp, do you think the main figure for the opposing party would vote yes?

Stop buying what the media groups or the church sell to you.

it doesnt shatter instantly cause you know part of it is right the legalization of same sex marriage is not Top PRIORITY and lately in the news the passing of the law, that warehouse that has been burning and the snow are the only things on it.. There are much bigger things that are not being talked about..

the Important things that need to be adressed is what this blog was about.. the law was passed and it helped the current govenment dispite it was been voted by all of the congress who has an opposing mayority.

I voted for a more democratic congress so i know how this law was passed..
the media will still be talking about how it helps the govenment. Some of my dumb theology teachers preached about how bad this law was and my argument stayed the same that its just to take away the heat the govenment can get over other issues...

How is equaling the rights of citizens not a priority? You are saying that because this doesn't affect you in any way at all.

I don't know what the point is. If anyone is to blame for reporting on snow and not important things is the media, not the government. Your argument makes no sense at all.

he doesn't understand actually, the move was political, but the way he worded his response means his response comes from a place of hate and homophobia rather than political insight.
