Caligula or Bush...who would YOU choose as your leader?
I'm watching this special about Caligula on the History Channel right now.

I'm honestly not sure which is worse.

2. well, at least if you were of use to Caligulia there were the orgies
I bet the closest thing to an orgy in the WH now is spiking the punch with some vodka and taking xanax and passing out in the red room.

5. Yes, if we're going to die anyway...
...I'd rather die postcoital and full of wine.

3. Bush is already pretty much like Caligula
Except Caligula was a little less insane, so I would have to go with him.

6. Caligula...
He reigned for only 3 years and 10 months and I guess even his bodyguards were fed up with him, they were the ones who did him in...

9. "tis true
I think the Pennsylvania Du'ers would rather have Mr. Ed representing them in the Senate than the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter they're saddled with right now.

16. Uh, Bush
Caligula murdered his sister who was pregnant with his child because he believed the child would be more powerful than he. He thought he was God. His sister was the sister of God and the child would be even a more powerful God. Incest, infanticide, insanity. Bush is just incompetent.

Bush may be incompetent but geez, Caligula was a raving loon when it came to the God stuff.
