| Heading to Italy and need a translator |
|
You know that clothing manufacturer that placed the following on his care label:
"We are sorry our president is an idiot. We did not vote for him" ?
Anyhow, I'm going to Italy in two weeks, and a friend who just returned from there told me they are ready to rip the head off Bush and are very unkind to Americans.
So, can anyone translate that phrase into Italiano for me? I'm thinking of ordering a custom t-shirt... just to be on the safe side.

Siamo spiacenti che il nostro presidente è un sciocco. Non abbiamo votato per lui.

For 'We are sorry our president is an idiot. We did not vote for him' we found: Source: The Collins Italian Dictionary © 1995 HarperCollins Publishers: we (pers pron pl) noi; ~ understand, abbiamo capito; (stressed) noi sì che abbiamo capito; here ~ are, eccoci; ~ Italians, noi {or} noialtri italiani; as ~ say in Florence..., come si dice a Firenze...; ~ all make mistakes, tutti possiamo sbagliare.

| 7. I think an all inclusive response |
|
if you should hear the word "Bush" yelled at you in great volume, is to throw your hands in the air, look heavenward, and exclaim as loudly, "Bush! Mama Mia!" Then put your hands over your eyes, bow your head and say, "no mea culpa."
