RE: No recognition for Enduring Freedom!
>American representatives overwhelmed those of every other country at the
inauguration ceremony. There was General Tommy Franks - who might have
expected a victor ludorum after vanquishing the Taliban -<
this reminds me of a proposal that I think still is relevant: following the
lead of ancient Roman emperors, US Presidents to add titles to their names
to indicate their victorie: Ronald Grenadacus Reagan, George Panamacus Bush,
Bill Sudanicus Clinton, Dubya Afghanistanicus Bush... One problem is that
last on the list wouldn't be able to spell his own name.
