Argentine President Cristina Kirchner’s Lack Of Penis Makes Farmers Hate Her, She Says Ovarily

Argentine President Cristina Kirchner has been facing off against her nation’s farmers over an export tax on soybeans that have led the latter to strike, protest and, at times, resort to violence. In response, Kirchner tells them “It’s all your fault. Also, the press. Also, my ladyhood:”

Fernandez’s instinct has been to meet force with force. In a show of muscle in the face of a 21-day farm strike that caused food shortages and affected agricultural exports, Fernandez spoke before a mass rally of supporters organized by her Peronist party on Tuesday afternoon, lashing out against large landholders, the press and what she claimed was a plot to unseat her government only 102 days after taking office. “Never before in such a short time have there been so many attacks against a government arisen from the popular vote,” she said, adding that she had committed two sins: being democratically elected and “being a woman.” She demanded that striking farmers lift roadblocks across the country that were choking food supplies and affecting trade with neighboring countries.

O vry? While we’ve no doubt there are a lot of obstacles stacked against a female leader of a machista country (like the United States), we think this particular scuffle has more to do with raising export taxes 9% and attempts to ban or hinder the exportation of goods.
