| [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 Lorenzo Taiuti |
