Silvio Berlusconi is a Good, Decent Man

By Reuben, 9 April, 2009, 16 Comments

For those of you who are not familiar, Silvio Berlusconi is Italy’s President PREMIER (changed by your editor TWICE, because neither Reuben nor shorts have any idea who the hell this man is apparently).  He’s been elected and kicked out of office more times than D.C.’s Mayor Marion Barry.  Politically, he is an amalgamation of George W. Bush’s family power and connections and Rupert Murdoch’s control of the media, except that Berlusconi owns a media monopoly – not just some pipsqueak conglomerate.

But behold…

    It’s good to be the king! Still legal in Oregon though, right?

    He’s actually the Prime Minister, not the President. Also, he’s held that position 3 separate times. Just makes it worse, really.

  • Reuben

    Good point about him being PM. I thought President felt funny. But yeah, its amazing how many times he’s been re-elected. If I remember it correctly, he’s also escaped being convicted of crimes, mob-ties, that kind of thing also. Seems like he’d run a great ponzi scheme…

    Parliamentary systems, eh? And I love that Berlusconi will always be known by this hilarious video, regardless of how fake it is. Perhaps some wing-nut should make their own version the infamous Michelle Obama “whitey” video and those fucktards can play it again and again on their awful blogs for their own amusement, and ours. I’m sure any African-American woman, or Michelle Malkin in blackface, would look convincing enough for the average Freeper…

    @iwillsavethispatient:

    I think he’s a premier, not a prime minister nor president, which either way makes Reuben WRONG.

    Online CIA world factbook sez:

    Prime Minister Silvio BERLUSCONI (referred to in Italy as the president of the Council of Ministers) (since 8 May 2008) note – in Italy the prime minister is referred to as the president of the Council of Ministers

    And “premier” is interchangeable with “prime minister,” so shorts’ above attempt to embarrass Reuben actually is humiliating to himself more than anyone else.

    Silvio Berlusconi is a living legend, the man is a gaffe machine. Seriously… I’m lost for words. As you might know there was an earthquake in Italy a few days ago, killing 200 and leaving thousands homeless (18 thousand… but the numbers keep on changing…)
    Here’s what what Mr Berlusconi had to say to the victims:
