the italian president acted like a piece of poo poo

and then suggested vampiric leach Carlo Cottarelli as PM

and then the " markets" downgraded italian bonds just above junk

they forgot that only italians shake down italians

that reminds me of something jay leno said about how in the U.S. there aren't really many mob-owned clubs anymore, particularly mob-owned comedy joints where he got his start. and the reason is because of "corporations. they're way meaner, tougher, and more ruthless than the mob ever was."

Gonna enjoy that fascist supermajority after the new elections because a liberal decided he knew better than the electorate.

Yeah sorry, this is completely incomprehensible to me. Only part that makes sense as a joke is "stugats" at the beginning but the rest is as bizarre as Japanese parodies of Americans
