		I believe that senators of both parties will find that Incitatus' talent, experience and unwavering ability to kiss my ass make him a superb choice to safeguard the constitutional liberties and equality of the Americans who won me the last election, even if they are being a bunch o' cry-babies right now.

		After asking Incitatus kindly to remove all the hay from our bed, we sit up and munch on coffee, croissants and sugar lumps, while I read The Spectator from cover to cover, my hoofed friend prefers The New Statesman.
		Incitatus agrees that Reece Witherspoon would make a fine consul for the Roman Empire, if she were a man, a horse or a monkey.
		However, in incidents such as the naming of his horse Incitatus as consul and the cancelling of the invasion of Britain so that the army might collect seashells, his dry sense of humour was often misunderstood.

	Classical Values :: Completely lacking in horse sense . . .
		While a political career for Incitatus was contemplated, it never happened.
		Clearly, Incitatus was more of a friendly, entertainment-oriented horse than a politically-oriented horse.
		There is no historical evidence whatsoever that Incitatus served as an "enforcer," and while horses are generally considered loyal, to call him a "loyalist and an incompetent" simultaneously seems a bit unfair.

	Roger L. Simon: Iranian nukes an illusion

		I suspect there is much truth to this but unfortunately it does not dispel the possibility that they may actually be near to having nuclear capability.

		Incitatus, I would like very much to see photographs of your sword.

		But by the time Caligula considered appointing Incitatus the post of Consul, so important in the days of the Republic, had been stripped of all power - usurped by the Emperor.
		Mind you, Caligula wanted to appoint Incitatus just to show he could and to demonstrate that all the normal aristocratic candidates for the post were no good, powerless nobodies.

	Caligula
		In the words of historian Michael Grant, Caligula had an irrepressible, bizarre sense of the ridiculous, deliberately designed to shock, but frequently taken by his alarmed subjects too seriously.
		Probably he remarked that Incitatus would do the job as well as most of the recent incumbents; and meanwhile he ordered silence in the entire neighborhood, to prevent the horse from being disturbed” (The Twelve Caesars, [New York: Scribner, 1975], 113).
		Some of his jokes were more sadistic, as when he arranged an oratory competition in which all the losers had to erase their wax tablets with their tongues.
