To Get Berlusconied

That's a phrase which should be coined in the English language.

Definition: To commit so many mistakes (particularly of a sexual nature) that eventually people get tired of you and decide to dump you ....

Though one might add — What a country!

Well, it seems the Government of India is up to its usual censoring ways ... http://online.wsj.com/article/SB126327347865425871.html?mod=WSJ_hp_us_mostpop_read It's not as bad as what the Chinese are doing in battling Google. The Internet is awash in pornography and the feeble attempts of the Govt. of India won't be able to stem the tide. The Govt. should merely restrict itself to ensuring that there's no child pornography or trafficking of humans. There are problems galore for the Govt. to worry about as it is ...
