avete la faccia come il culo roberto giachetti musicato
Roberto Giachetti (born 24 April 1961) is an Italian politician of the Democratic Party, who is widely considered a centrist within his party.
As a student, Giachetti was an activist of center-left libertarian Radical Party, and worked with Radio Radicale. When the Radical Party was dissolved, Giachetti joined the Italian Greens and was elected a district councillor in Rome. In 1993, Rome mayor Francesco Rutelli appointed him director of his mayoral cabinet (Italian: capo di gabinetto). During the period of the La Margherita alliance, he was a member of the Rutelliani faction, seeking the party to be modelled on the U.S. Democratic Party. More recently, he became affiliated with the Renziani, the economically market-liberal, socially progressive faction around Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.
On 21 March 2013, Giachetti was elected Vice-President of the Italian Chamber of Deputies. In May 2013, he sponsored a motion to abolish the Porcellum electoral law to return to the previous Mattarellum law on an interim basis. Opposed by then–Prime Minister Enrico Letta and a majority of the Democratic party, but supported by some 100 deputies of Left Ecology Freedom (SEL) and the Five Star Movement (M5S), the motion failed, but prepared the field for the 2015 electoral law reform under Letta's successor Matteo Renzi.
In the second round of the 2016 mayoral election in Rome, Giachetti was defeated by M5S candidate Virginia Raggi.
