Does the Bush administration's cutting of funds to maintain New Orleans' levees as part of their war effort mean that New Orleans is now a casualty of the Iraq war?
Nero dressed up in robes, strummed his lyre, sang about the fall of Troy while Rome went up in flames & 200,000 became homeless. Nero enjoyed lavish spectacles and loved to dress in drag. Rumors spread that Nero set the fire but arson charges were never proven. Nero poisoned his step-brother in order to remain Emperor.
Bush was anointed in 2000 by the Supreme Court, with one vote. He "got away with murder." He too likes costumes, and dressed up in pilot regalia (padded crotch?) to land on the USS Lincoln & staged a quick Thanksgiving trip to a hangar in Iraq (to serve a fake turkey). He joked about WMD under the desk ("Nope, no weapons over here .. maybe under here." He was on vacation during Hurricane Katrina.
He ignores disasters building, then stubbornly refuses to leave, but without having a plan or funding for cleanup.
More than 1,800 people died from Katrina. "We will stay until the job is done," Bush said, announcing plans to visit the area, one year after the disaster.
More than 2,000 military and countless civilians died from the Iraq War so far. Bush said, “We’re not leaving so long as I’m the president."
A friend's son once said"
Bush Isn't Hitler... He's Nero."
