Transfer Pokemon From Diamond To Soul Silver

is not the same thing

"As long as the moralists speculate about what happens under the covers of others, we pry (turandocelo) under them." So writes Victor Felts, director of Il Giornale. You know, Victor Felts, that not all sheets are the same, and those of public figures - Bill Clinton, the Kennedy brothers, down down to Silvio Berlusconi - are much less equal than others?

Anyone who has studied a minimum of information law - and a journalist, was also the editor of Il Giornale, has done it for sure, because you are asking the state exam - know that protection of the right to privacy can not be hard for a politician and severe as it is for an ordinary person. For one simple reason: a politician plays a public role and is called to make decisions vital to the entire community, which can not be polluted by the facts unclear regarding his private life . If among the friends of a politician accustomed to shady characters include traffic unclear - corruption, money laundering, mafia, mafia, etc (add at will, nda) - I should know, and I can not be silenced with the refrain "respects the privacy of President of the Council. " If a politician who holds an important constitutional position is wrong, then this is not to be covered with sensitive data secret is information that citizens need to be, because they have a right to know if the candidate they choose and that they government can take care of the business community. And again: If a politician is publicly Roseanne with the Church, go to Family Day and then sbertuccia homosexuals, in fact, separate a man that goes with hundreds of women and helps in career squandering public resources (it happens when sent to work in when RAI or - even worse - put them on the list for the municipal councils, provincial and regional authorities, the Chamber 's Euro MPs) - I should know. I must know in which conditions working my Prime Minister, as the administering public affairs, and that end is to make money that I pay my fine by paying taxes .

So I do not care if the director of the bishops' newspaper prefers men to women - is clear to me, of course, the hypocrisy, but I do not care now - and I do not care if the director of Republic buy houses in white. What I want is that my Prime Minister - because yes, by God, it is also my - meets at 10, 20, 100 journalists' questions. I deserve a head of government that respects the sovereign people (see Constitution of the Republic, Article 1) respecting first printing.

POSTSCRIPT. If Mr. B. had not addressed the Court against the Republic of 10 questions - guilty, according to him, to defame him - perhaps his henchman attempt to shift the focus more on the cry of "who is without sin cast the first stone" would succeed. But pointing the finger at the 10 questions was able to remind everyone that in over four months of articles, investigations and revelations did not reply to any of the few, simple, legitimate questions that have been placed. In short, he returned to the protagonist. Just can not do it, not to be under the spotlight.

Coopers Home Brew Yeast

Back to business

The Stepford news reopens today after a long summer break. Due to the crisis? Maybe. The crisis of conscience for sure. My conscience, of course. I see it around a few others.
I was not surprised to see Mr. B. more than ever glued to his chair after all the revelations of sex that we have been forced to read in the summer. No citizen of any country in the world deserves a head of government who humiliates him by requiring the public agenda their whims and interests and which remains in the saddle after submitting . But that remained on horseback in a country like ours was to be expected. I mean, not us we have a true democracy.
At this point, though, I angered the stubborn - and concerned - loyalty of his followers, the stubborn - and, again, concerned - indifference of much of the media, and the liability of those who - like me - are angry but they never do anything. Because we make it slip on me? Why do we become so complicated?
The profession I chose, in a country like Italy, honors the timid and conformist. Conformist I am with some difficulty, I'm almost always timid. And how can I not be afraid when I see some print regime to respond with beating blood work - perhaps not always flawless, but certainly legitimate - of journalists from all over?
Everyone keeps most remote in the drawer of his soul stories they want to keep for himself . Not always - thankfully - it contains "crime reports" (nothing criminal offense, in short). But just because none of us is an immaculate saint is easy to silence someone in the face upon application brutally episodes - more or less serious - of which we have become the protagonist in the past. Easy, well, not the merits, sparigliare cards, cover up the events most uncomfortable. Series: "Close the beak, you should not make noise ".
The director of "Il Giornale" and his deputy to "Free" are doing a great job. From the perspective of those who want to hide too much material evidence of the "boss" and erase the traces of his "Mess on," is clear.
But that sucks, though. Yuck.
In what kind of place we live?
