Cicchitto & Bonaiuti keep us in a good mood. The new Franchi Ingrassia & Italian politics. Like those Japanese soldiers who, twenty years after the end of the war have been unearthed in the jungle, guarding a drum of petrol, because nobody had warned them that the war was over, these two comedians Bagaglino continue, whenever pass in front of a microphone or a notebook, explaining that the talks with Alitalia failed "Prodi rules". Some people will never tell them that when Air France has slammed the door Prodi not had a dick, as the "slamming door" is April 22, and the results of the elections of 17 April?
now for these "two two" also the stage of Bagaglino has become "too much". Let's give him a stool, and mandiamoli in Hyde Park, between the speakers drunk. But anyhow: as we are confident that this sulfate to give Prodi, to Kure and Spectre tragicomic crisis management, and before the media bury all sleep, we decided to collect in this long and boring post, halfway to "Blob" and "Carta Canta", our documentation. Not to forget. For "on the file" is not embedded in a medium such as Tafanus. With the hope that some other bloggers, maybe on our reporting, or reporting of our readers will keep this post on its platform.
