Battlestar Galactica on Friday!
Border Reiver:
I'm not backing the "f*cked up rebels". What I am saying is that a military dictatorship is no way to run a society, and that the president has done a really poor job of selling the necessity of what they need to do to th Quorum and to the people of the fleet. In fact it's such a bad sales job that a large % of characters now see no choice but to go against the duly constituted authority.
I'm ready to wait til tonight and see what they've cooked up for us.

Destroying humanity just to be "right" seems like a poor decision.

This is interesting, because I guess in theory they could just write in that the Cylons had been using anti-radiation meds since their invasion of the colonies, but that would seem like kind of a cop out. I probably wouldn't mind it too much if they had to throw down the cylons on Earth in order to make an interesting and relevant plot point though.
Also Uh isn't one of the main advantages of a Military Dictatorship flexibility in a crisis? Whether or not a military dictatorship is MORALLY right doesn't affect whether or not it increases the odds of humanities survival. If I was in a similar situation I'd be fucking happy with a just plain ol' neutral dictator and we could sort the rest out once we sorted out the imminent and fast approaching death of our species
Ozymandias:
Jesus, last night's episode was ridiculously good, but I basically felt sick the entire time. Surely no one can agree with Gaeta and Zarek's methods, if not their motives.
Jimor:
Yeah, it was pretty intense. I watched the preview for next week's ep on scifi.com, and it really had an "oh shit!" punch to it, but I kinda wish now that I had avoided it so that I could let the whole episode unfold as it may.
