Suddenly, I feel like having (an) Italian tonight…

You have to love politics in Italy. We are arguing over words while the Italian PM is marching through a brigade of women.

From the UK Telegraph:

The Caligulan court of Silvio Berlusconi laid bare

At a certain point, a woman at one of Silvio Berlusconi’s parties says, “a girl started flashing her bottom and the evening took off”.

The Italian prime minister says he has nothing to be ashamed of, and that he has just been having fun. But the sheer mass of sordid details of his “bunga bunga” parties has now been revealed for the first time. The descriptions provided by prosecutors, investigating allegations of wrongdoing, prostitution and sex with an under age dancer, read like a bacchanalia.

One opposition politician has already remarked this week: “Compared with Berlusconi, Caligula was a prude.” And so it might seem from the 389 pages of investigation and full gallery of skimpily-dressed showgirls named in prosecutors’ papers and assembled for the first time by The Daily Telegraph.

Linky love here – Oh, Silvio!!!
