16. I can just see Bush clinging white knuckled to the door jambs of the

White House as the guards are holding him horizontally and trying to get him out the door in January of 2009.

6. Obviously the Italian Supreme Court didn't get the memo

that Shrub's buddies are to get a free pass at election time - which means they DO NOT LOSE.

Fat Tony, Scarface Benny and the boys will be around soon.........

7. But what is he planning to do about it?

Lock himself in the official residence?

Continue to issue directives as if nothing had changed?

Call out the Army and install himself as head of a police state?

:shrug:

9. Bush has decided to congratulate the winner Prodi

Will Prodi have Berlusconi arrested for trespassing?

US recognises Prodi poll victory

The US has recognised the victory of the centre-left coalition in Italy's disputed elections.

The Department of State said it looked forward to working with the bloc's leader, Romano Prodi, who was declared the winner by Italy's highest court.

Outgoing Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is still refusing to concede, calling for more checks.

Leaders from Britain, France and Germany had already called Mr Prodi to congratulate him.

US President George W Bush - a close ally of Italy's centre-right prime minister - last week held back from congratulating Mr Prodi, saying the election was being contested.

18. It's a fine Italian tradition. See ...

Here's a former Italian Head of State (and his wife) who attempted to keep in power against the will of the people.
