AND NERO BUSH DECLARED: See, I’m a hurricane president. I don’t have to explain myself to anybody. These good folks know about sacrifice. I was there in the devastational until five o’clock the Friday before a three day weekend, by the way. People can criticize me if they want. That is the American way. Nobody has been executed. Not yet. Laura is a great First Lady. We’re lucky to have her.

This is great. Bush and his handlers are as frigging crazy as Nero!

H: Watching 'Rome' last night on HBO. From the steps of the Senate a proclamation is read: "Caesar has been declared an enemy of the State! All good citizens are called upon to do him harm, if they are able!" Thought they were talking about Bush there for a second...

Good characterization. But after little boots went to Arizona to smooch Mcain, paraphrasing Marie Antoinette, "Let me eat my cake, dipshits!"
