“Shock As Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky Declares Martial Law, Seizes Control Of All Media And Outlaws All Political Opposition To His Own Party”

Abraham Lincoln did almost all of this during the Civil War ...

Certainly a disappointing series of actions, but not so far afield from Lincoln in the Civil War.

If you think Zelensky is one of the good guys, you are very mistaken and quite deceived.

I don't care if he's one of the good guys so long as he makes Putin's invasion difficult. As for martial law, we declared martial law in Hawaii when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor - and that was a bombing, no ground troops invaded Hawaii.

“Yeah I remember when people on FR loved rove and called him a “magnificent SOB”.....that sure has changed. Lol!”

Rowe’s exurbia strategy to win the 2004 election was brilliant. He tapped into a new demographic, that was pro-family and anti-leftist, that had been ignored by everyone. His strategy should be studied by every national campaign manager. Quite simply, Rowe ignored the old city vs suburb campaign strategies and found a new one in exurbia.

“Martial law may be entirely justified when your nation is under brutal attack from multiple fronts.”

And killing every government pig who declares martial law may be entirely justified. Martial law gives government the excuse to steal everything you own and kill you and your family.

Here’s a hint for you: We fought our revolutionary war without the Continental Congress declaring martial law. The other side - the British and King George - declared numerous martial laws and we killed them for it.

“Whatever. If the U.S. was invaded, do you think the govt would hesitate to do same?”

You’re probably right; however, do you really think the fat slobs in the affirmative action, 50-IQ federal bureaucracy are capable of leadership and sound decisions?

Or might the American people tell the fat slob federal bureaucrats, who don’t know which bathroom to use, to leave the area for their safety?

Looks like you have some experience in that area.
