 Berlusconi Hides Balkenende Embarrassment.
As leaders of the European Union met in Greece last week Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi of Italy, left, saved his Dutch counterpart Jan Peter Balkenende the embarrassment of having his hard-on noticed by adjusting his suit.
"I shook his hand." Berlusconi told Greece's ABC reporter Pavros Stabalos, "and couldn't help noticing a huge lump in his trousers... At first I thought it was a gun, you know "is that a gun in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me? But then I realised that guns aren't allowed inside the conference building... so I discreetly adjusted his suit to hide the problem. It was a friendly gesture."
Jan Peter Balkenende, embarrassed that the moment had been captured on film explained. "It was just the emotion, walking around in a suit, feeling you know, like really important and powerful, and more than anything I was pleased to see Silvio. Anyway, you know what they say. Balkenende by name, Balkenende by nature."
