And today, somebody punched him in the face at a autograph signing. :P

[popehippo]

WTF Italy. WTF.

They did it for the lulz!

"Rod Stewart, Brian Jones, Keith Richards in their prime were schoolboys compared to him."

and from the sound of it, they'd make better prime ministers too

even Brian Jones in his current state could not be as big a putz as Berlusconi

yet somewhere I hear the bare chested wanna be Putin crying in his borsch over this

lmao i love your icon

[perfectisafault]

when's the next election in Italy? will they finally kick Silvio out of office or does the center-left not have their shit together?

[kindelling]

A lot of the problem is that Berlusconi owns the Italian media, so he essentially controls the entire political/public sphere.

[perfectisafault]

Oh yeah...that's definitely a factor. That suuuuuucks. He'll be in there forever because all he'll get is favorable coverage :/

[dramaturgy]

They tossed him out once before, it can be done again.
