Have some fun with the Prime Minister of Spain

If somebody thinks that the prime minister of his country is stupid, he still didn't see this...

The Best moments of Mariano Rajoy, president of Spain.


[1] Congress. Debate. He starts to answer to the opposition party leader with the words 'Mr. President...'

[2] In an interview, he writes a couple of notes to answer. And when he's gonna answer, he suddenly says 'I have a problem. I don't understand my handwritting'

That, by the way, happened two times:

[3] He's reading a speech that includes some quotes. Whoever wrote the speech marked the end of the quotes with the sentence 'End of the quote'. He litteraly reads out loud, several times, 'end of the quote' at the end of every quote in the speech.

[4] When accused of corruption, he answers 'It's all lies. Except something'.

[5] Here is the wonderful press conference (the only one in several weeks)... that was a TV playing a DVD for the reporters.




[6] A spontaneous sample of joy, like this 'long live the wine!! !'

[7] And the amazing english language proficiency, with his 'eeeeh, very difficult, todo esto' (very difficult, all of this).

Do you mean "prime minister?" In English, the word "president" is for a head of state. Mariano Rajoy is probably the head of government, meaning we would call him a prime minister. My understanding is that the head of state is the king, Juan Carlos II.

I am sorry if I sound like I am too arrogant.

Nope, you didn't sound arrogant at all. And you're right. It's edited. Thank you.

Quote from Expatica.com

"Hands off our Rock"

The tiny rocky outcrop on Spain's southern tip has long been the subject of an acrimonious sovereignty row between London and Madrid, which wants Gibraltar back after it was ceded to Britain in 1713.

Immediately following Britain's vote last month to quit the EU, Spain said the "Spanish flag is much closer to the Rock".

Lets hope Gibraltar will have lots of fun with Spain now..

Since this thread was started, Felipe became King. And his predecessor was Juan Carlos I, not II.

The UE was supposed to render territorial disputes between its member states irrelevant over time. It's undoubtedly funny, albeit in a crooked way, to rekindle them as part of a passionate rush back to the dark ages.

Don't make fun of the PM of Spain!

He works hard to put food on his family! Lol!

And give him credit for not saying things like: "we did not send in the National Guard to create disorder, but to preserve it.", or "there is nothing more important than bondage between a mother and a child", or "this new dam shows that human being and fish can coexist peacefully!",or "this election is about who is going to be the next president of the United States!" (all, including the 'food on your family' thing, were said by American politicians).

Or the classic "If it's a legitimate rape, the body will shut itself down"

As in die?

This is my favorite quote from Rajoy:

He was giving a speech in a little village and he became a bit (or very) confused. This is what he says:
Spanish: "Es el vecino el que elige al alcalde y es el alcalde el que quiere que sean los vecinos el alcalde"
English: "It is the neighbor who chooses the mayor and it is the mayor who wants the neighbors to be the mayor"

It was prior to an election for the Town Halls and Autonomous Communities representatives.

Or Crazy Uncle Joe's hits: "Gonna put yall back in chains", "my mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the united states, I could be, I could be vice-president of the united states", "you cannot go to a seven eleven or a Duncan donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent", "we must heed the times words of Teddy Roosevelt, speak softly and carry a big stick. I care assure you, the president has a big stick, I promise you", "the duties of the office on which I am about to enter", "ladies and gentleman the next president of the united states, Barrack America", "I mean you got the first sort of mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean", "I said Jill if there's ever a problem just walk out on that balcony, put that double barreled shotgun out and fire two blasts", "It happens to be a three letter word, jobs, J O B S, jobs"

A certain male pol (forget who) said that a woman's body wont conceive if she is raped (her body somehow magically knows the difference between rape and consensual sex).
