Berlusconi is a mad man. No doubt about it. The impressive thing is that he is riding his madness with style. Very Italian.

It does appear, though, that we will soon have to get used to a new Italian PM. Berlusconi stepped down today, trying to form a new government. If the attempt fails (which doesn't seem unlikely, considering the media attention given to the event), he will have to call for an election.

There are so many crazies in power these days.

Does anyone know what Turkmenbashi has been up to lately?

You never hear about the guy at all. What gives?

You'd think that the press would talk about him at least a little bit here and there, maybe even to take some of the heat off of the current war and such.

I mean, how come we never really hear of the human rights abuses in that country? Weird, isn't it?

Well, at least they have nice weather.

That's one of our partners in the 'War on an Ideology (aka Terrorism).'

A joke about Aids told by Mr Berlusconi: An Aids patient asks his doctor whether the sand treatment prescribed him will do any good. "No," the doctor replies, "but you will get accustomed to living under the earth."

quote:

His response to critics who said the joke was offensive: "They have lost their minds; they really have come to the end of the line, indeed they have gone beyond it. I would advise them, too, to undergo sand treatment..."

No, no, dont exaggerate this, he only owns 90% of the media!

That 10% is clearly curropting the country with leftish propaganda!
