I think this is the logical end point of populist government. Shall we return to the days when our rulers were big, bearded beer-swilling bastards who were in the front line of the wars they started, or shall we keep going with the pathetic parade of liars and (aha) whores?
But democracy means power to the people, innit?
Even if it guarantees that we, the people, see less and less power every day.
Plato was right 2000 years ago. Democracy is just a front for oligarchy.
true that. people felt more freedom and security in yugoslavia while tito was stil alive. what wee need is to let a dictator to rule the world, but to achieve that there can’t be no elections of anny kind. he or she can grab power only in the old fashion way.
not all the southern regions are poor. My city is a relatively small city with lots of museums, and everyone has a quite happy life. Okay, Sicily is quite poor and corrupted by the mafia. I have lived in Germany too, and trough i don ‘t live near a supermarket and a good ice cream store simultaneously like i did in Germany, i’m still pretty satisfied with my life.
*Erections
FTFY.

Taranto, Italy well I think I know where I’m moving now.

What we need here is a pic of Angela Merkel doing a facepalm.

But everyone knows tits are more important than policies and fiscal plans.
You spelled “raging boner” wrong…
Contact your doctor if your election lasts more that four hours.
*Talanto
Looks like they might try and rig an erection!

In a related story, Italian politicians rush to fill demand for adult film actors.
Italy…now with Japanese accent.
That’s what I was thinking ^^
So: ‘erections*’

Borgia’s actually a fairly common Italian name.
Really.

I see no difference in font from the other posts.
It’s an implied font change, just go with it.
I don’t think I want to see a Hillary Clinton vs. Michelle Bachman strip-off…just saying
Taranto…I’ve been there. This is SO apropos for that broken-down burg.
I’m not an italian, but I’d like to come to the election anyways… to support democracy of course
most honest political campaign ever

They invited other candidates…
It’d be hilarious if the short fat old guy who probably ended up winning showed up to dance too.
