Many Italians still forgive [Silvio Berlusconi] his perma-tan, hair transplants and platform shoes, even his notorious gaffes, ranging from telling victims of the earthquake in Abruzzo in April to imagine they were “on a camping holiday” to describing President Obama — twice — as “tanned”.
But the Constitutional Court’s ruling may mark the beginning of the end. It is the second time that he has tried to give himself immunity — the last was in 2004 — and the second time he has been rebuffed. His lawyers’ argument this week that he was “first above equals” served only to show that the law was made to protect him.

From the article:
He has branded the judiciary a “cancerous growth” and called judges “mentally disturbed, anthropologically different from the rest of humanity”.
Proof for me that Berlusconi has a PhD. In what exactly I don't know, but something.
