7. Boehner's version of the Roman circus is where citizens go to the Colosseum to watch gladiators

and end up getting thrown to the lions themselves.

(Actually, wasn't Caligula actually supposed to have done that when he was Emperor? He got pissed off when the crowd didn't like the quality of gladiators he was putting in the arena with the lions, so he sent the preatorian guard up into the stands to throw anybody who was booing down into the arena with them? That's pretty much Boehner's circus.)
