Sunflower Wedding Ideas

I never talked about politics in this blog: it is a topic that usually prefer to avoid. But

seen some recent events, I will express the same few words.

I am neither an advocate nor a detractor of Silvio Berlusconi: I prefer not to take sides. I consider this a less than mediocre political , this is true, but it is his work as a politician and Premier, which is called into question in recent days. What is disputed is its value as a man .

do not know if B. is guilty or innocent, this is something that must be decided court. And until, with proof, a court will not declare liable for offenses that are contested, I will refrain from any trial. But, whatever his guilt or innocence and my political beliefs, as a man I feel compassion for him. Looking

B. I seem to see an old Roman emperor, the decadence of the times, like a cancer when external and internal forces were crumbling empire which for centuries had been the wonder of the world. There was good B. Ancient Rome at that time nobody would have an orgy or convicted for having sex with a girl. And Travaglio, Di Pietro De Magistris and would end up in the arena, and devoured by lions for the fun of the people. At most B. would run the risk of being stabbed in the back: Tu quoque, Gianfranco, I wires. But there were other times ... It is not the Rome of the Caesars of Rome, the popes.

What I see now, looking at B, is a lonely old man. Or old, lonely and depraved, depending on whether the allegations prove to be false or unfounded. A king by a court of lackeys, servants, astrologers, clowns, false friends, ass-licker and whores, flatter and spoil him for his money and his power. At the same time, puppet and puppeteer, in the great hoax of Italian politics. Of course B. is a character ambiguous, difficult to view and understand. But reflects the contradictions in his being and the sins of our country and our time.

Who is actually Silvio Berlusconi? E 'difficult, perhaps impossible, to answer this question: there are too many items, too many suspects ... I would not find myself in the shoes of a hypothetical his biographer. But it is a question that should be found an answer.

feel the same compassion for B. if, on paper, were shown to her faults? I think so. A king banished from his kingdom, Nero redivivus, which covers dishonor Italy and the Italians. It takes little to create a monster in the popular imagination, and none pleased to be hated. The remain i soldi, gli stessi con cui si dice abbia comprato le sue donne, e i cortigiani, ma né gli uni ne gli altri saprebbero colmare il vuoto in cui si ritroverebbe l'uomo che in più di un'occasione ha espresso il bisogno di essere amato dal popolo che governa (o almeno, da una parte di esso).

In verità non penso che ciò accadrà, non esattamente in questo modo. Ma se dovesse succedere, se l'agonia dell'impero di B. dovesse giungere a compimento con un botto? Allora le acclamazioni ed i festeggiamenti per la sua caduta risuonerebbero in un altro grande vuoto: quello della politica italiana. Per quasi due decenni B., nel bene o nel male, è riuscito a colmarlo, ma tale e quale si ripresenterebbe his death. The Italian left has only one program, not a political one: to eliminate B. And the right ... is B.

And if the allegations prove to be a big hype? Most prefer not to think about ...

But one thing I know for sure I want to know who's Silvio Berlusconi and what is the truth. As a citizen of a democratic country (or what purports to be) is my right.
