Overweight vs Counter-weight

Greece-and the Balkans in general-never quite understood the meaning of ''political correctness''.
Making fun of one's physical appearance has been a favourite pastime not only for the ''common people'', but for the half-illiterate political clans,as well.
So Mr Pangalos is not- and could not comprise- an exception.
If we look what we are,no doubt,Mr Pangalos is in for it.
But he is also provocative.
So mush so that he is looking for it.
Mr Pangalos is said to be an intelligent person.
I don't know whether he is intelligent or not.
All I see is an unhappy,old man, and a counter-weight for PASOK.
