Obama with no corresponding Martial and is no Augustus.



Spiteful censor of the Latin Language, read
six insolent verses of Caesar Augustus:

"Because Antony fucks Glaphyra, Fulvia has arranged
this punishment for me: that I fuck her too.

That I fuck Fulvia? What if Manius begged me
to bugger him?
Would I? I don't think so, if I were sane.

'Either fuck or let's fight,' she says. Doesn't she know
my prick is dearer to me than life itself? Let the trumpets blare!"

Augustus, you certainly grant my clever little books pardon, since you are the expert at speaking with Roman frankness."

How to spur a musical career

Kryl was insistent that his daughters become professional musicians. He offered each $100,000 if they were to remain single until the age of 30, so that their careers would not be stalled by the distractions of romance. Josephine spurned this offer in order to marry Dr. Paul White, director of the Rochester Civic Orchestra. Marie initially took the same course of action when she became engaged to Greek Count Spiro Hadji-Kyriacos. However, Marie broke her engagement and was able to collect the full amount from her father.

Mr "Milton Friedman" Rot at the bat

In the worst case, the restructuring of a member state could overshadow the effects of the Lehman bankruptcy. Don't worry, be happy, says Rot, while downing yet another glass of ouzo.

REGURGE: Italy has far more sovereign debt outstanding, almost $2,000 billion, than any of the other problematic governments. No problemo, says Rot. It's all Monopoly money. Just put it on the tab.

The Red-Light College

...[S]ociety is indeed a contract, but "a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born".

Impressive lunacy from a Dem judge

The crux of [Obamacare] cases is whether the government's power to regulate "Commerce . . . among the several States" is so broad that it can mandate that everyone buy health insurance. Judge G. Kessler of the D.C. district says [...] that this power includes regulating even "mental activity, i.e., decision-making. [...] Kessler: "It is pure semantics to argue that an individual who makes a choice to forgo health insurance is not 'acting'."
In other words, there is no constitutional principle that limits federal coercion.

Thoughtcrime anyone?
