JDM

What the fucking fuck is wrong with Italy and France they elect schmucks like Berlusconi and Sarkozy?

Reamus

Why the hell not??They lead with their best organ, that's all...hope I'm still poking them as often as old man Berlusconi when I'm his age.Guy's amazing.

Best government that money can buy is the very core of a Democracy isn't it? Sure as hell is for Congress.

FranIAm

Oh this is rich. It is out in the open and not all hidden behind some fundie screen. Ack, all politicians make me ill.

JDM: I believe that there were rumors that Berlusconi got in the way W did in 2000 and 2004. Also, Italians don't want a totally efficient government, if you get my drift. At least that's what I've been told.
Reamus: No doubt he owes Pfizer a huge debt of gratitude. I hope his soon-to-be ex-wife cleans him out. Given how rich he is (owns a lot of the tv/print assets in Italy), she probably will barely make a dent.
Fran: I hear you. Except for a very small handful (Dean, Sanders, Kucinich, Lee and some others), they are shameless, thieving whores. The whole stinking bunch. GMB

Well, Italy did elect a porn star to office, so this seems in keeping with the tradition. And as you say, the devil you know.

Bet it makes the closed door meetings more fun, tho.

Rgds,

Tengrain: And Mussolini's granddaughter as well. Man, makes Congress look, well, less slightly less appalling, no? GMB

distributorcap

gmb - our congress is more appalling - it has michelle bachmann, david vitter and virginia fox
i would take the porn star any day over them

gmb

DCap: But she was a mere escort, not a porn star. That said, at least he would fill the seat with a professional rather than a rank amateur. GMB

JDM

Michelle Bachman is no amateur. Just ask the guys that did Dogfart's Minnesota MILFs KKKlassic Buttblasters IV republiKKKan Gold Series.

Or just ask Dr. Markkkus.

gmb

JDM: Her "doctor" husband (didn't he get his degree from one of those pretend "universities?") wouldn't know. He's too busy trying not to look directly at the package on the hunky workmen he encounters in the course of the day. GMB

libhomo

JDM: Berly wins because he owns roughly half of the major media in Italy. There's a lesson to be learned here.

gmb

That's right, libhomo. Although I thought he might own a bit more. That said, imagine if Rupert Murdoch ran for president. Same fucking thing. Except--and I can't believe I'm typing this--Berlusconi might be even sleazier than Murdoch. GMB
