O God Give Us Food and Shelter !
You got to love the Italian prime minister. He is a true joy to observe: his complete oblivion to just how much of a buffoon he is is truly amusing. Berlusconi fancies himself funny. A clown he is, let's give props where due.

For keeping what resembles a harem, Berlusconi has been likened to the equally stupid and sexual chauvinist Libyan leader Qaddafi:
