Shithouse Rat Crazy

Italian Prime Minister Caesar Silvio Berlusconi's use of an obscenity, "coglioni", to denigrate his adversaries raised the heat of campaigning on Tuesday five days ahead of a general election.
Berlusconi, in an address to a shopkeepers' group, used a slang word for testicles to describe liberal voters but the term is commonly used as a crude insult to describe someone of little intelligence. Common translations of coglioni in UK and US dictionaries range from: idiot, cretin, fool and moron to prick and asshole.
"I have too much esteem for the intelligence of Italians to think that they could be such 'coglioni' to vote against their own interests," Berlusconi told the group. "Excuse my rough but efficient language."
The incident rocketed to the top of the national news and center-left politicians led by former European Commission President Romano Prodi criticized Berlusconi, who is behind in the latest opinion polls. "With all the respect I have for (Berlusconi's) voters I would never use that anatomical term we heard today used about us," Prodi said. "Berlusconi is no longer fit to lead our country."
