Knowing our Prime Minister doesn't wear condoms might fall under TMI, just sayin'.

I'm going to take a break from Italian political news for a moment as well. I really didn't need to know that Berlusconi doesn't wear condoms. WTF? Signor, wrap it up.

His polls numbers are dropping. I'm not surprised. He needs to focus on Italy's problems and quit fooling around.

Article from the Times UK.

I've got to read up on this too. I liked DAvid Lebovitz's joke on FB about -- how did these tapes ever surface, he thought Berlusconi owned all the media outlets in Italy?!

I heard your PM is pretty outrageous but that officially takes the cake...ewww. Disgusting

It's good to know that he is finally falling in the Italian polls. I don't know why many Italians put up with this type of behavior from the premier.
He's a gross joke. A pervert. Yuck.

kimb- What's up with all the taping? Do these women do it for protection, blackmail why?

inguaribile - uhmm okay. ciao

skywalker - I know he's a little older but times has change. No glovin, no lovin. :)

j.doe - That he controls 96% of the press definitely helps him. I think the combination of his wife's comments, the number of scandals and the world wide economic meltdown is finally putting a dent in his teflon.

More harmless than the stories you discussed yesterday, though.

President Obama was reduced to discussing his choice of jeans when he threw out a baseball the other day. Like there isn't something more important to ask this ground-breaking president?

This is the latest addition to the growing list of things I don't need to know. **gagging** Are the media that desperate for news?

As for the prolonged discourse on Obama's 'dad jeans': this is headline news? Enough already! Every now and then I go on a news blackout to protect my sanity.

monica - your wait is over. I just posted about it today:)

liane - I hear you.

Gross. It seems like every day Alessandro is telling me about some new recording that one of the women he was with made while they were together in the bedroom. I'm like, yuck, I don't want to hear him telling that woman to wait for him in the 'big bed' while some cheesy Neapolitan love song plays in the background. Dignity. Whatever happened to it??

Dignity left the planet long ago when reality television and camera phones were created.
