Don’t you realize that you are seeing a more farcical but not less self-righteous reincarnation of Mussolini, eager to silence Parliament and take power in the name of his proclaimed, mystical identification with The PEEPUL? I will admit that Bersani has the Devil’s choice – Berlusconi and Grillo, two utterly untrustworthy villains. Perhaps Italy deserves this for having voted for these swine. But to call Grillo a man of the left is to call Mussolini one.
