[Nettime-bold] Election Day!!!!


Dear Net/timers
As you already know Berlusconi is the MediaMogul and Big Brother who threatens to take over the next elections.Inspite worried articles of economic and political observers all over the west , our dynamic postmodern leader is in full shape.
Hundreds thousands of copies of a 120 pages booklet has been sent to all italians so to have a full sight of the birth & growth of a blessed (by god & fortune) (ex) young italian business man.
 
Let me reproduce a few startling words in the beginning of the book:
"In these years another Italy has been born...humble(?!?)  and tenax, proud and honest (?!) moderated ( that for sure...) but firm in defending liberty principles ( so to say...) ...that has no past to Hide...( he has at least about sixty processes going on in Italy & outside for forgering, fraud etc...)  and that above all  has no fear to hope and believe ( a slight switch to the necessary inspired catholic spirituality...). 
This Italy is Us, it is called Forza Italia!!" (useless to translate i guess)
It is a pity we cannot use images in mailing lists because you miss oustanding images of Cavalier Berlusconi sprawled in the middle of a flower bed ( an interesting mixture of J.J. Rousseau and forties pin-ups..). Irresistible images of schooling years (you may recognize the bright, alert eyes..).
Intriguing freudian insights seem to come out of the chapter about His father Luigi Berlusconi, beeing the title the biblic "In the Name Of The Father" .
All dressed in white (a  Fred Astaire souvenir?..) He walks around his cute babies (now grown up with a surprising look alike  to the baby Alien 1 in the widely famous Ridley Scott Movie).
Passionately embrancing His wife ( a real bleached blonde remembering the hunger for rich/blond/beauties of the real hungry italian fifties).
You still miss his Mother, a sweet old lady always ready to fight for Him in many different situations.  
Countless other episodes i will have to drop.
Interesting elements for previewing his future politics come out from the chapter  "Five Great Missions to change Italy!!" and "Five Strategies to make a better life for Italians!"  (Five +Five makes 10. Commandments?!?).
Last Title "The Building of an Empire!!".( a Postmodern, post Baudrillard quotation from the Lexicon of Mussolini the First?).
If Berlusconi does not win the elections i will sell this booklet starting from 1000 dollars on the web.
If He wins i am afraid we will have many more of those.
Dear Greetings & Ciao
