Nero's rule is often associated with tyranny and extravagance. He is known for many executions, including that of his mother, and the probable murder by poison of his stepbrother Britannicus. Nero was rumored to have had captured Christians dipped in oil and set on fire in his garden at night as a source of light. Most of Rome was destroyed in the Great Fire of Rome, which many Romans believed Nero himself had started in order to clear land for his planned palatial complex. Facing a false report of being denounced as a public enemy who was to be executed, he committed suicide on 9 June 68 (the first Roman emperor to do so).
He is also, some have suggested, heavily medicated.
To medicated to have Nero’s end.
Nero?
I knew Nero. Nero was a friend of mine. Oboma is no Nero!
Caligula?
Now THAT is a narcissic role model in ancient Rome!

At least Nero had the decency to commit suicide.
The number of folks willing to pay to see Dorkbama the Muslim off himself would truly be in the uncountable class.
Nero came in late one night; his wife asked him where he had been. He became enraged and kicked her to death; she was six months pregnant. The next day, he felt bad about it, so he went and found a teen age male prostitute who had an astonishing resemblance to the wife he had killed (they say). He castrated the male and married him. Made him wear a dress. The teenage boy was finally humiliated enough to commit suicide.
Nero could at least sing. Obama, no talent - in any field other than dividing Americans against one another.
Besting Nero’s legacy - not exactly a high bar.
Remember - Obama rated himself America’s 4th greatest president after LBJ< FDR and Abe Lincoln.
But that was before the Iran nuclear give-away.
So now he has probably bumped his evaluation up at least one place.
“Obama Says He’s The Fourth Best President Ever”

In the past 8 years, Obama and his democrat voters have succeeded in reversing every single gain achieved by the Americans in The War on Terror since Sept 11 2001.
Successfully overthrown the government’s of numerious Allies that supplied support in that war, and have now succeeded in the Muslim invasion of Europe and established an Islamic beachhead in North America.
A homosexual, an illegal alien, a drug addict, a socialist, a muslim, a coward and a liar walked into the Chicago bathhouse.
The masseuse said "Welcome back, Mr. President."
Maybe a Kenyan can be the second?
On a PPV basis, it could cancel half the national debt!
Obama’s ultimate legacy will be to turn the democrats into a regional party.
Lincoln would have had 0bama tried and executed for treason.
Its as if God halted carters cancer so he could see for himself that he was not the worst president in history
He’s everything to everybody. Miraculous, no?
Nero may have offed himself but oslama has gotten Reggie offed, or something like that.
We could probably retire all the debt he racked up.
