Joseph, what so wrong with Gonzi`s expression? I see a political leader who suffered a budget defeat and fall of his cabinet, yet is defiant and reaches out to his supporters. Its a bitter- sweet/ happy-sad expression that tells perfectly what have happened. I think its a great image, worth of thousand words!

This picture shown here is definitely not the 'picture of the week' unless for all the wrong reasons.
How can you put a smirk on your face (as opposed to a brave look) when you just had a mauling and a drubbing to go with it?
The pathetic look of the decade would be mild!

You would be surprised as to what politicians can do. Don't judge the book by it's cover.
