History repeats itself (3/4/10)

The German title “Kaiser,” meaning emperor, along with the Russian Czar, derives from the Latin Emperors’ title of Caesar, from Gaius Julius Caesar.  As for Caesar, I found this little tidbit kind of funny:  In elementary school-style attempts to humiliate and degrade Caesar, his political opponents publicly questioned his sexuality, often claiming he had a homosexual affair with Nicodemes IV of Bithynia.  Sometimes he was even referred to as the Queen of Bithynia.  That’s hilarious for so many reasons.  First, it’s hilarious to hear people slinging mud at arguably one of history’s most influential leaders  Second, it’s funny how nothing ever changes. Politicians will always have homosexual affairs.
