Weak communists and cute secretaries are Italy's main strengths: Berlusconi http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/afp/20030924/od_afp/italy_us_berlusconi_030924194713 He's playing the card of sexual tourism, maybe... Nobel Laureates Blast Berlusconi Award http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030924/ap_on_re_us/us_berlusconi_5
Hate to break this to you, but I would have never decided to vacation in your beautiful country myself if I didn't know I was going to get laid by some hot Italian piece of ass.
I saw that bit about the secretaries on the news... Oh well, after racism and corruption, sexism isn't such a surprise coming from him. What the hell is the Left doing in Italy anyway? How the hell did this bull in the Chinashop make it all the way to becoming your head of state...
Re: Re: More Berlusconisms... This is the way it should be, creating human bridges between cultures and ppls. But did you invest your money here? If not, give us back those hot italian pieces of ass. B. said it clearly, hot secretaries for you but only if you invest your money in italy. Don't worry, Berlusconi is taking care of our economy so you can be confident. Stagnation doesn't mean things are going badly.
There's a lot of dfb's here dfb547490 - The more I hear this guy speak, the more I like him. Ppl who like being lied and dream. Fortunately many of them have already changed their mind. Unfortunately the next political elections are in 2006. He's the best door-to-door seller ever existed. And he owns the medias to spread his easy promises. Indro Montanelli the best italian right wing journalist (dead 2 yrs ago) once said "Berlusconi is a sickness that can only be cured by vaccination, with a strong injection of Berlusconi in Palazzo Chigi [the prime minister's office], only after that will we be immune." I think he was right.
It is an honor for me to receive this award - as a private citizen, as an entrepreneur and as a political leader I have always been fighting for tolerance and freedom. Tonight we celebrate values and it is no coincidence that such a celebration should take place here, in the United States. I have always been grateful to the United States for saving my country and Europe from the worst scourges of the 20th Century: Anti-Semitism, Nazism, Fascism and Communism. And I always remember that it was possible to defeat Totalitarianism with the immense sacrifice of so many young American lives. I have always been grateful to the United States for helping us out of poverty and into growth and prosperity, after World War II, thanks to the generosity of the Marshall Plan. I have always been grateful to the United States, which at the expense of their citizens and their taxpayers protected us from the threat of the Soviet Empire during half a century. And still today I am grateful to the United States, which continues to pay a high price, also in terms of human lives, for our common security and the defense of human rights around the world. Wow. You know who i have never heard say that? Anyone from france. I did not appreicate his comments about Mussolini, but i think he didn't even realize what he was trying to say. However, we do need a friend in Europe, and Berlusconi is that friend.
