BERLUSCONI: VIOLANTE, NON PARLIAMONE PORTA SFIGA
by edoneo Friday September 05, 2003 at 10:18 PM mail:



BERLUSCONI: VIOLANTE, NON PARLIAMONE PORTA SFIGA NEL 2001 E' STATO CARTA VINCENTE, ADESSO SARA' PIETRA AL COLLO CDL

BERLUSCONI: VIOLANTE, NON PARLIAMONE PORTA SFIGA
NEL 2001 E' STATO CARTA VINCENTE, ADESSO SARA' PIETRA AL COLLO
CDL
Lerici (Sp), 5 set. - (Adnkronos) - ''Meno parliamo di
Berlusconi, meglio e' perche' porta sfiga: prima l'alluvione in
Piemonte, poi un'estate terribile, va in Sicilia ed esplode
l'Etna, ospita Putin e affonda il sommergibile. Se tre
coincidenze fanno una prova, quattro fanno una sfiga''.
L'iperbole e' del presidente dei deputati Ds Luciano Violante,
ospite della festa della Margherita. Piu' seriamente, poi
Violante ha profetizzato: ''Berlusconi, nel 2001, e' stato la
carta vincente del centrodestra, adesso sara' la pietra al
collo. Scherzi a parte -ha concluso- il centrosinistra non
abbocchi alle polpette avvelenate del premier''.
