Well if I was forced to guess, Silvio would be one of my guesses.

Great. This will start off a week long rosary clutching by all the pisspots on non-Fox stations about "What if this happened to Obama? They would have done it because he's a black man."

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Well given Obama is 6'4' tall he would have to be leaning over (or bowing, just for the different political perspectives on here) for an average person to get a punch in (one thing I learned from my dad's random boxing advice for tae kwan do, height really does matter) but let's not dread the hypothetical of the hypothetical of the hypothetical.

I am guessing Silvio's problems such as his sex and corruption scandals that have become a bigger stories than him being in and out as PM and his football club will be much brought up because Italians seem to have finally drawn the line with him. That being said, I don't think punching your head of state does much of anything.

The assaulter was just some random engineer from Milan with no criminal record. I am thinking either populist anger or a restless AC Milan supporter.

"No, Goth...

No, CNN started the drumbeat months ago. One of their main anchors made the claim that Obama has already gotten more death threats than any other POTUS. An official had to come on the air and tell them that that was an incorrect statement and he had not received more. They didn't care. They'll tell whatever lie fits their agenda.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Right...CNN is the news network with an agenda.

*giggles*

Spoiler Alert:

Both news networks have an agenda.

I have NEVER met Cheyenne Jackson. I have never hung out with him in his dressing room, he did not tweet me, he never bought me a beverage, and he mostly certainly didn't tickle me. . .that is all.

<...all the pisspots on non-Fox stations..."

Ya gotta love our Goth. Not many people would have the temerity to utter that statement.
