Dude, I am just so psyched ...

...about this whole bringing democracy to the world thing. It's really working out.

Meanwhile, on the home front, here's a fun game: without referring to American Heritage, Google, or Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms, write down your own definition of "martial law."

Are we there yet? Award yourself a score based on the published "security precautions" for the Republican National Convention, and the provisions of the Patriot Act.

Now practice handcuffing yourself and assuming the "compliance position." You'll know it when you feel like you are about to give the State head.
