Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4That's because he controls almost all the Italian media and had the RC church in his back pocket thanks to the Eluana case (As outlined above).
But then things changed. - The RC church issued a stinging front page rebuke which also incidently reflected their far right conception of leadership and democracy, Berlusconi for them obviously doesn't reflect the morality of the nation or its soul as Franco in his time served the ideals of Opus Dei. Old Franco only ever got to oggle Eva Peron with his eyes hanging out beneath the disproving gaze of his wife Carmen Polo, (but she shared the bedroom if not the bed and nothing ever improper came to pass) , poor old Franco the "catholic leader for a catholic nation" didn't get to proposing frottage or soliciting Peron's hypothetical daughter in return for political patronage and favour.
But now poor auld estranged mrs B really is coming up mrs Trumps with the news that she will use the services of Eluana Englaro's lawyer in the forthcoming divorce proceedings, which to the chagrin of Mr B, he never removed from the statute books just like the RC church asked him.
all throughout the land of Italy, there are pretty young women, who though never raped may now see reason to voice their disquiet over past discomforts in the presence of a truly powerful man.
According to today's Italian "Repubblica" and additional coverage from today's Spanish "El Pais", the Vatican's congregation of the faith a department better known by its historical name The Inquisition has drawn up a list of 41 priests who signed or expressed support for the dignified death of Eluana Englaro. They are facing excommunication with its usual downsides :
* Not only the loss of their power to sanctify communion wafers but their place as Roman Catholics at the rail to take the eucharist. Even if they sneaked into a church or chapel and did partake of it, in their mouths it would nought more than bread.
* Not only will they lose their power to give the last rites or viaticum to the dying but they themselves will no longer be candidates for such preparation for the grave and won't even be allowed a burial in hallowed ground or a modern cremation complete with blessed urn.
* They will be scorned upon by all good catholics ranging from the Italian prime-minister to the most humble African child born with AIDS & no catholic will commit a sin of either venial or mortal nature if they set their dogs upon them or give them a clout across the back of the head with a blunt instrument.
* They will lose their jobs complete with regulation clothing, car and housing allowance & have to find work in some other sector.
This hardly even happens to the priests who abuse, molest and vilify the innocence of children.
Here are the names of this monstrous priests & prelates who saw no incompatability between their faith in a merciful God and the teaching of the Christ who never told us when to take people off life support machines perhaps for the good reason he had never said it was ok to put people on life support machines :-

even though according to Berlusconi she was alive enough to have babies, nobody harvested her ovaries.
Tonight Beppino Englaro the father of Eluana who died with dignity this day last year spoke out against Berlusconi's shameless comments this morning which beside expressing is regret that neither he nor the Vatican could stop the death are in fact more poignant as being the first time he has spoken of regret or remorse *for anything* especially and not least in this last year.
the polemic continues.

Eluana's father replies :-

"In Berlusconi's words :- "She is alive enough to get pregnant". Leaving one only to wonder who would have fathered her child and what would have been the morailty of such an act."
It just shows you exactly what unpious sick way berlusconi was probably thinking about her!
