abortion

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,22304236-5000117,00.html

When a woman has an abortion, the fetus is alive, and it is human, that`s a fact. But it is also true that it is a womans right to choose what she want to do with the baby inside of her. Some people might think abortions will never stop, and if it is legalized, only unsafe " underground" abortions will stop. what I personally think instead of stronger legislation regarding abortion rights, we should develop more regulations to take care of unwanted children after they are born; in this way we are really protecting human life.

http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F40F17F93D5C0C778DDDA10894DF404482

VOCABULARY:

stuffed: to place forcefully into a container or space; thrust: stuffed laundry into the bag.
rift: a break in friendly relations: a rift between two people; a rift between two nations.

MAIN IDEAS:

_A guy from Venezuela, tried to get pass Argentinian border controls with a lot of ilegal money
_ Presidents from both countries don`t want to put their hands on the subjet.
_ The owner of the money run away, authorities let him get away

PERSONAL REACTION:

This is obviously a case of money laundring. And in my opinion both presidents have something to do with it. It is to much money anda there is a nacional oil company envolved so... get your own conclussions.
On the other hand the suposed owner of the money is a very rich man who`s living at the moment in miami and made several trips to Argentina before, which lot of them looked very suspicious.
