A backward country

Today I am very sad. Italians decided to give credit to Mr. Berlusconi for another government.
Again. Another time, the third.
After two government (1993-1994 and 2001-2005) that were among the worst of Italy's history (and it is a difficult competition, believe me!). Since the end of the XIX century, at least.
We are going to be governed again by a man who owns nearly the whole television system of the country (not to tell about banks, newspaper and god knows what else).
A man who has a very backward concept of women, who has told that Vittorio Mangano (a mafia boss dead in prison some years ago) that worked at his house was an "hero" etc... etc...
What a shame ! Around the world people must think Italy is a very backward country and .. do you know what ? They're absolutely right !
