BURLESCONI THINKS HE'S THE CHRIST OF POLITICS
according to an article at WEBINDIA123.com:
Addressing party supporters over dinner at the weekend, Berlusconi had said he felt like "the Jesus Christ of Italian politics. I am a patient victim. I put up with everything, I sacrifice myself for everyone," the Ansa news agency quoted the premier as saying.
Berlusconi, who only last week had compared himself to Napoleon and who once described himself as "the anointed one", later said he had been misunderstood.
Cardinal Tonini voiced the Church's objection.
Maybe he should try comparing himself to Berlusconi.
The Sunday Morning Herald from Australia offers a few more Berlusconisms.
