the newspapers that Totò Cuffaro has been thrown headlong into his role as parliamentary opposition. "I defend the interests of Sicily - the former governor says - better than the members of the PD." Reading these articles, it was for me like a deja vu. Remember when Umberto Bossi's Northern League organized the rally on the Po? Well, the then Regional Minister of Agriculture announced that they want to Totò Cuffaro in Comacchio with typical products of our island. I do not know if he really has done. But remember that what inspires me a story. I went out again. The idea that just as the defender of Sicily Cuffaro s'ergesse made me laugh even then. Imagine today.
Here is the story.
worthy to ride next to Hector, Aeneas, and Lancelot, our most valiant leader has finally thrown into the fray. Totò Cuffaro, regardless of the threats that the riders of Alberto da Giussano's throw from their dismal Carroccio, is already deploying its followers to defend the waters of the unsanitary Comacchio.
The men, at first, move back before the frothing water. Emerge from the left foul swamp the heads of thousands and thousands of snakes, almost hydra huge is about to emerge.
Totò Cuffaro is the only one not to turn back. Spinning the sword is thrown headlong into the midst of boiling water, and massacres of snakes.
"Picciotto, eels" is his triumphant cry victory, which respond to the cries of jubilation of the Knights, who now are preparing to lay the table.
Soon the coals are ready, roasted eels. A Lawless local giggle but remain at a distance, they saw Totò Cuffaro in action, and fear its fury legendary.
"Why do you laugh, oh no God?" Screams the rider.
"Why eels roasted sausages as if they were" those responding, always at a safe distance but still also bent double with laughter.
So contemptuous of the danger as fast in battle in wit, Totò Cuffaro reacts to his par.
with reassuring gestures without God invites to approach his table.
"Take Codest fruits of our land and our work," he says, holding out buckets overflowing with God without the prickly pears.
"Eat well," he says loudly, so everyone can hear it. The godless are thrown on the tubs and imprudent bite the fruit.
had not ever done! Unaware of the fairs thorns that defended the sweetness of the fruit, the barbarians Po writhing in pain and run towards the water to detach quills from their languages.
It 's the time of our riders to laugh. Totò Cuffaro, as witty as wise, but rebuke them: "Never bask ignorance that others have of our habits: people are made to live together and to share experiences, cultures and contracts."
learned the lesson and moved by those words, without God Po cheer our proud knight, and immediately proclaimed him their defender.
This is the story of how Totò Cuffaro's troops defeated by Alberto Giussano much higher number. Because it is well to remember that where they can not have the courage and brute force will succeed a pure heart and more worthy topics.
