One part of them consists mostly of clowns who like publicity by giving fascist salutes, and other forms of demagoguery that appeals to low IQ soccer fans. Unfortunately they also often cross the line between being critical of immigration policy in the interest of preserving European cultural values and racism, prejudice, etc. The Berlusconi half is a group of ruthless opportunists. Italy's misfortune, although no one likes to call it that, was the so-called "corruption trials" of the 90s. During these trials a genuine Christian Democratic party, with flaws of its own, but one that brought Italy decades of progress, was eliminated from the political scene, and replaced by the clown Berlusconi. The corruption of the DC is a far cry from the corruption of both sides nowadays. Sent at: 2008 08 28
