 Power Line: Europe: It's a Continent, Not a Country
Berlusconi was hardly the first person to be exasperated by the contrast between the self-righteousness of contemporary Germans and their country's checkered past, but his rejoinder was considered out of bounds and he was jeered by the Parliament's leftists.
What the leftists really object to, of course, is not Berlusconi's purported "corruption"--European politicians of all stripes have busily lined their own pockets for generations--but rather the fact that he is a conservative.
Ironically, Parliamentary Greens waved banners opposing Berlusconi prior to his speech, some of which said "No Godfathers." The difference between this ethnic jibe and Berlusconi's comment to the German representative is not obvious.
