I think Beppe Grillo tends toward hyperbole (not that that's not a good thing) / mafia arrests (if they don't all go free under some amnesty law) is still a good thing.<br /><br />2. As Odissea states, GWB didn't insult anyone; what with his sentence-structure challenged ways, his cowboy posturing (our President wore a costume), and his vapid look and frat boy smirk, well, he opened himself and all of us gringos to a whole lot of ridicule -- that's what I mean by floodgates...Irreverent Italyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15104487411073849736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8362454344378752317.post-9663503323463404262010-03-22T23:09:05.442+01:002010-03-22T23:09:05.442+01:00Francesca:

The British sexually are considered either homosexual or S&M. It's sort of expected.<br /><br />Secondly, if you read Beppe Grillo, Mafia arresting is window dressing.
