The seconds
Di Marco Travaglio
arial'Unità Time, September 30 2008Al Tappone wanted to celebrate his 72nd birthday in the tradition: telling lies. He made the usual list of his trial, exaggerating a bit '("100 cases, 900 judges who have dealt with me and my group, 587 visits by police, 2500 hearings, € 180 million for the parcels of lawyers and consultants) and not realizing that even a tenth of that amount in any other country would have catapulted the premier, if not in jail, at least outside Palazzo Chigi. He reiterated that they are "always been acquitted, while six requirements because he had himself has halved the statute of limitations (the counter false accounting and law ex-Cirielli) and 2 acquittals because "the fact is no longer a crime" as he himself has decriminalized (always false accounting). Alfano said that the law is "common to other European countries, while there is no democracy in the world which provides immunity for the prime minister (Greece, Portugal, France and Israel this only to the head of state). And forgot to explain why, just past the Dolo Alfano, on his lawyer. Niccolo Ghedini announced that he would not have used because he wanted to be acquitted, and now wants to apply Mills also the co-defendant with the suspension urbi et orbi the process. Fortunately, there is still a judge in Milan, even very many, for example those in the process Mediaset (D'Avossa, Guadagnini and Wolf), who accepted the issue of unconstitutionality of Alfa given by Fabio De Pasquale pm, before the Court constitutional because the bullshit is declared unlawful. That is nothing. The text of De Pasquale and the Court, are the most blatant denial to the bales of Cain, on the basis of that document which is subversive to the Constitution. According to the prosecutor, the Alfano viola in four points. 1) If the art. 3 states the equality of all citizens before the law and thus provides the art .112 mandatory prosecution, you do not see how you can suspend the trial of four senior state without any examination of the seriousness of the misconduct and no filter on the desirability of a choice so heavy. Even rejecting the award-Maccanico Schifani, the Consultation had contested the general and automatic rule, but he's shrugged Alfano revived and broke it as such. 2) For Article. 136, declared unconstitutional laws are void and therefore not to recur: the Schifani null, null also Alfano. 3) The figure of four "senior" to our Constitution, does not exist. They have many sources of legitimacy: the President of the Republic is elected by Parliament in joint session as the chairmen of the Region, the Chairmen of the Chambers shall be elected by the Chambers, the Prime Minister is appointed by the Head of State. Share in the same pot impunitario makes no sense. 4) To waive the constitutional principle of equality, we need a constitutional law: it is constitutional law articles or to establish special treatment for ministers, the head of state, parliamentary and constitutional courts. The Alfano is an ordinary law and therefore not worth it. De Pasquale cites the work of the Constituent , where in 1947 he debated whether to immunize the President of the Republic (certainly not those Council or the two rooms) for common crimes committed outside of its function. Mr. Bettiol proposed it, but it was rejected by a large majority. Calo objected: "I do not see the need to create the Head of State a special status. We have a judiciary that is sovereign and is a branch of the government ... Even among certain colonial peoples can be called before the court the governor. " The Great Death revealed: "We intentionally omitted any regulation of the ordinary responsibilities of the President. It 's a voluntary gap of the Constitution. " The President of the Assembly, Meuccio Ruini, said curtly: "Better a gap that too great a privilege for the President, which is always a citizen among citizens, although covering the highest political office. Do not say that for seven years President of the Republic did not meet the justice of his country. " Other times, other founding fathers. Then came the godfathers tonics to explain that the law is equal for all but four
