More from the European "democracy model":

ROME -- The Italian cabinet on Friday approved a bill that will give Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi immunity from prosecution while he is in office, a move that would effectively eliminate three pending cases against the 71-year-old media tycoon.

Berlusconi... Italians should be ashamed to need someone like him in power to sort things out.

tasco, what makes you think that I care that much about Italy? I live in Colombia.
Fuck Italy, fuck Berlusconi and fuck the left of Italy, corrupted and worse than the right.

But, Italy and Europe are some years ahead Colombia talking about strength of institutions, aliveness of political debat and respect of opposition.

Lately, Colombia is getting more similar to Venezuela.
And that's what I care about.

Berlusconi is about the only friend Bush has in Europe. Not surprisingly.
