Portraying Berlusconi as a clown is a dangerous misrepresentation of him and of the situation. People are so busy whining about his infamous gaffe and his corruption that they're forgetting not only that all politicians, by their very nature, are corrupt, but that Berlusconi is nothing short of being a Fascist.

I think we should ignore the mass media waffle and bitching between politicians and kick up a stink about the real issues at hand.
