LOL! Silvio defies the solemn souls again



Wotta guy! One of Italy's new politicians above.
"Silvio Berlusconi has an eye for pretty girls with a background in showbusiness and has brought some of them into parliament and even his Cabinet to brighten up politics. Even by his standards, though, the Italian Prime Minister has chosen a striking roster of candidates to give his party a new face for the European Parliament elections in June, including a Big Brother star and a Miss Italy contestant.

None has any known political experience although Angela Sozio, 36, a flame-haired former contestant of Grande Fratello, the Italian version of Big Brother, made the headlines two years ago when the paparazzi photographed her and other showgirls strolling hand-in-hand with Mr Berlusconi, 72, at Villa Certosa, his villa in Sardinia....

The future politicians also include Eleonora Gaggioli, an actress best known for her role in the popular television costume drama Elisa di Rivombosa; Camilla Ferranti, who appeared in Incantesimo, a soap opera set in a cosmetic surgery clinic, and Barbara Matera [above], who competed in the heats for the 2000 Miss Italy contest and went on to become an announcer on the state television channel Rai.

There are some pretty dumb politicians around -- Joe Biden anyone? -- so I doubt that these ladies will lower the already low standard of political debate.

How very refreshing! The Italian PM is becoming one of the smartest politicans around. And how could anyone be dumb enough to bring up experience, or the lack thereof, after seeing Amerika elect a know-nothing, nobody, last Nov.

BTW, i'd do her in a NYC minute!

Experience is over-rated. Obviously leaving politics to the professional politicians hasn't worked so well lately - let's see if these "amateurs" can do any better....

BTW - Anyone who has ever dealt with the Beauty Queen business knows these girls are more political than Nancy Pelosi!

"BTW, i'd do her in a NYC minute!"Sorry mate,

Silvio's already been there, done that and bought her well worn thong.

What's he going to do with her used thong?

Hang it on the rear view mirror of his Lamborgini and use it as an air-freshener, of course.What a gumba!
