Idiots XV *

Yesterday, an Italian TV news channel (yes we have some inspite of Berlusconi) showed some Arab newspapers commenting on incoming elections. I was doing something else and could not catch the name of the country but this will not impact the essence of the news.

The progress evidenced by the news is that some women are candidates....

The idiotic is that while you can see the pictures of the men candidates (quite ugly indeed) published on the first pages of the newspapers, this is not permeitted for women. So a newspaper published the picture of a rose instead of that of the woman candidate. Even worse, another nbewspaper published a male's picture with the  heading: "Vote for Mr.... wife".

* the last idiots was XII but I realized that the same number had been gioven twice so here we are with the XV°...
