White House Sorry For Handing Out Rude Berlusconi Biography
People who follow European politics know that Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is a crooked wingnut who only stays in power by sending packets of money to every member of parliament. He has been charged and tried for a variety of comical Italian crimes such as bribery of cops and judges, "mafia collusion," and every known variety of corruption. But he has never beenconvicted, and this is why the White House shouldn't have handed out that Berlusconi biography calling him a scumbag ""known for governmental corruption and vice." [ BBC News ]
