conus | Thanks. I too remember the Watergate hearings and am still a little irritated that Dick Nixon died. He finally made good his promise that I'd no longer have him to kick around. Bush is okay, but he's really not in the same league as Nixon and Marcos. It's almost like making fun of a retarded person. | |||

Conus, welcome aboard! PG wasn't 'dissing' you, as the kids will say these days, but the demographic around here sometimes tilts young. It's older than when I first dragged my carcas up here looking for teenage girls who'd be impressed by the fact that I actively recall the Watergate hearings. (though admittedly they are my first concrete political memories). There's grown ups here, some of us with kids, not that Id' let them anywhere near this damn site. All of which is to say, the longer view is a very good thing to throw into the mix here. AND THE RET OF YOU STAY THE HELL OFF MY DAMN LAWN! I GOT THE COPS ON SPEED DIAL!! |

AChimp | Martial law was declared for a short time in Canada during the '70s. Smelly French terrorists were the reason. | |||

conus | Martial law was declared in 9/72. In the Philippines, that is. Why, is there an age limit? | |||

Yeah. Having lived in Manila for 12 years I remember how the public, at last initially, uneasily approved of Marcos' martial law declaration. Having frightened them, he was going to protect them. I've been a little uncomfortable since the "election" of this Bush character, but I'm not overly worried. As much as I hated Ferdinand Marcos, I have to admit that the man was competent. I don't believe Bush could pull it off, no matter how much he might want it. |

AChimp | No no, it means that his neighbour has semi-dark skin and speaks with a slight accent. | |||

ItalianStereotype | meaning that he has a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook and he scribbles his angsty teen goth poetry on the pages. | |||

Fear, Martial Law, Nationalism, and an EAGLE Let's see. The Democrats announced their VP selection, John Edwards. This has gotten a lot of democrats and independents energized and had gotten lots of news coverage. How should the Bush Administration respond to this? Unsubstantiated terror threats. http://reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml...toryID=5621516 Quote:
Well, it's a damn good thing in the face of this vague, non-specific, possibly fabricated threat that we have such a brave war-time president to defend us all right? http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...on_terrorism_1 Quote:
And what will the global media and foreign news say about this? Well, they won't be allowed in the country: http://media.guardian.co.uk/site/sto...256588,00.html Quote:
