Berlusconi for President '08

I think we might want to think about changing Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution. Why, you ask? We need Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to take over when Dubya's term is up, because realism and honesty are what is called for in the war on jihad. (salute to Bruce T.)

The West is morally better than the Islamic world and will prevail, eventually. That in a nutshell is what Italian Prime M Silvio Berlusconi said while on a visit to the German capital Berlin. He made these comments in a conversation with journalists just before a press conference with German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder. Berlusconi literally said: We must be aware of the superiority of our civilisation, a system that has guaranteed well-being, respect for human rights and – in contrast with Islamic countries - respect for religious and political rights."

The Western civilisation is superior, Mr Berlusconi added, because "it has at its core - as its greatest value - freedom, which is not the heritage of Islamic culture". The Italian prime minister predicted that "the West will continue to conquer peoples, even if it means a confrontation with another civilisation, Islam, firmly entrenched where it was 1400 years ago".

Pa-reach it, Silvio! This will surely cause a combined Islamocrat/leftocrat seethefest of biblical proportions. The truth hurts sometimes, but it can be a marvelous catalyst for change if one is sincerely willing to work for enlightenment and progress. Sense over sensibilities.
