British History Show About Caesar Slams Bush
The History International channel runs a show called Almanac on Monday nights. Some of them are what they call Historyonics, where they really jazz the story up, make it funny and stylish. Maybe to appeal to kids but it's very well done as you learn something and laugh at the same time.

Anyway, in an episode that aired this Monday they talked about Julius Caeser's "invasions" of Britain.

He is meeting with the Gauls talking of his plans and tells them, "We are not invading Britain, we are there to liberate it."

One of the Gauls asks, "Can we have some of your olive oil."

And Caeser screams, "It's not about the oil!!!"

Laughed for about 2 minutes from that one.
