Why am I not surprised at this? This creep Berlusconi always gets his way. The vote of confidence was most probably bought and paid for otherwise,can one imagine such a creep hanging on for so long???
People of Italy,
It appears you are putting Berlusconi on the fast track to end up like Benito Mussolini!
Let's hope so. Anybody who dates underaged girls,treats Africans like dirt and carries out orders from Washington with blind obedience can't be all good!
