Stop Being A Heavy Sleeper

smile, Italy that Berlusconi is growing

What can go into the head of a man who arrives at the halfway point of the seventy years, may know only those who lived them seventy years on their skin, not me. Instead, what I know for sure is that the man who turns seventy years and today by the name of Silvio Berlusconi ha segnato la vita del mio Paese come pochi nella nostra storia. Sorrido in questi giorni quando vedo lo sconforto dei tanti amici sinistri per le poco esaltanti vicissitudini della maggioranza che li rappresenta. Tanti di loro hanno formato il proprio credo politico in questi anni di berlusconismo, sull’onda facile di una critica continua, massiccia, che non ha risparmiato nessun aspetto della politica del Cavaliere. Eppure oggi proprio sui loro volti io leggo ancora più forte di prima l’incidenza del suo governo, onorevole Berlusconi, sulla maturità democratica dell’Italia che verrà. Le sue uscite arrembanti e combattive hanno lasciato spazio ad un’Italia troppo vecchia che molti di noi credevano ormai superata. Ma se oggi suscita so embarrassing amateurism by Romano Prodi on the same press that promoted the rise in Palazzo Chigi, this is just for an inevitable and perhaps even unconscious comparison that everyone, even those who have hated the most, are forced to do. I had written the day after the defeat of April 9. Berlusconi Berlusconi has lost but is stronger than before. I confirm today. There, where I see how the Berlusconi does not define just one character - the best - of our political party but indicchi inopinabilmente new approach to politics that has now made inroads into all Italians. Once it was customary to believe that the language was the elusive nature of the political class, the rulers of our country. The talk was rather direct indication of superficiality, of demagoguery certainly not the end of political thought. His brave decision to get their hands dirty in the dirty corridors of Romans broke that pattern, perhaps forever. I now know that the government has returned a large chunk of the first republic. Yet at the same time I know that even his most bitter opponents for his style is a fixed point with which to compare because there really is no longer unthinkable to go back. Whatever its future policy strategy President need not worry, there is a deep impression in his new way of thinking about this country now. President wishes.
