Glitch in the board, I see.
That happened to me twice this morning.
I like this story for several reasons.
1) Marriage is a questionable thing in the first place so the dude who asked probably deserved to be turned down.
2) The girl is clearly a bitch and probably deserved to be cut.
3) They are obviously made for each other and should be put in an over-sized burlap sack together and tossed into traffic.

Somebody should have slashed his throat for proposing in the 1st place. Sure as hell wish someone had done me that favor.

You haven't been here that long. Give it some more time, and you'll drop that whole "seem to be" bit.
Judging by your pic and sig, you should make nice nice with

That's all fine and good, so long as you don't mind RJS burning down your bushes, Dio picketing against the war and Bush in your front yard, Sarge trying to recruit your kids into the United States Bullet Stoppers, the occasional drunk guy pissing on your driveway, IGY beatboxing in your basement naked with your daughter/son, and random people knocking on your door at three in the morning to tell you a joke about Jesus Christ whining on the cross while Mary was having a three-way with a Bus Driver and a Midget, you'll enjoy your new home.
all i know is, rape is such an ugly word. i like to call it surprise sex.

Omar Torrijos-He had reached the rank of lieutenant colonel by 1966 and in 1968 he and colonel Boris Martínez led a successful coup d'etat against the democratically-elected president, Arnulfo Arias (Arias himself had led a coup in 1931). In the internal power struggle that followed Torrijos emerged victorious - he exiled Martínez in 1969, made himself a brigadier general and survived an attempted coup from his junior officers. Torrijos further consolidated his power by taking authoritarian measures such as persecuting leaders of student and labor groups, dissolving all political parties and the legislature, closing down independent media outlets, and conducting a ruthless anti-guerrilla campaign in Western Panama. Under these conditions, the regime called for controlled election of an assembly with a single opposition member, which approved a Constitution that granted Torrijos absolute civil and military powers in 1972.
Dr. Salvador Isabelino Allende Gossens (June 26, 1908 – September 11, 1973) was a Chilean Socialist politician whose career in government spanned nearly 40 years, as a senator, deputy, and cabinet minister. Allende was elected President of Chile in the election of 1970 after three unsuccessful runs for the office in 1952, 1958, and 1964. He governed with a controversial socialist and
Soviet-aligned agenda, which led to a state of social unrest amid strikes
Colonel Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán (September 14, 1913 – January 27, 1971) was president of Guatemala from 1951 to 1954, when he was ousted in a coup d'état organized by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, known as Operation PBSUCCESS, and was replaced by a military junta headed by Colonel Carlos Castillo Armas.

LBI,
The Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Allende) is listed as being "in dispute," but there is no doubt that Allende had some dealings with the Soviet Union:
QuoteThe KGB's archives record that Svyatoslav Kuznetsov, KGB case officer in Chile, was instructed by headquarters to "exert a favourable influence on Chilean government policy". The Times extract from the Mitrokhin Archive volume II from historian Christopher Andrew and KGB defector Vasili Mitrokhin says that "In the KGB's view, Allende's fundamental error was his unwillingness to use force against his opponents. Without establishing complete control over all the machinery of the State, his hold on power could not be secure." He received $30 000 from the Soviets for "solidifying trusted relations" and providing "valuable information" [18]. According to Allende's KGB file, he "was made to understand the necessity of reorganising Chile's army and intelligence services, and of setting up a relationship between Chile's and the USSR's intelligence services", and he was said to react positively. In June 1972, Kuznetsov's close relationship to Allende may have been disturbed by the arrival in Santiago of a new Soviet ambassador, Aleksandr Vasilyevich Basov, member of the Central Committee of the Soviet Communist Party. In 1972, Moscow downgraded its assessment of the prospects of the Allende regime. The "truckers' strike", backed by CIA funding, virtually paralysed the economy for three weeks, which Moscow saw as evidence of the weakness of the Popular Unity government.
Now, I do not know of the reasoning behind our new member's inclusion of this topic into this thread, but here's my opinion (that and a buck will get you a double cheeseburger at McDonalds):
The U.S. was not directly involved in the coup that ended up in the death (probably by suicide) of Allende, but the government severely sanctioned the Chilean government (democratically elected, but ideologically closer to the Soviet Union) in hopes of spurring a coup d'etat that would bring a dictatorship (but one closer in ideology to the U.S., in at least being against the Russians). From the article:
QuoteAfter Pinochet assumed power, U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger told U.S. President Richard Nixon that the U.S. "didn't do it" (referring to the coup itself) but had "created the conditions as great as possible" [12] , including leading economic sanctions.
The coup that ousted Allende brought Augusto Pinochet, an "enlightened dictator" by American standards in the 1970s and 1980s (much like Joseph Stalin was claimed to be during World War II, when he was on our side), basically meaning that they followed American directives in the Cold War. On the plus side, the economy of Chile did stabilize under Pinochet's leadership. However, he is believed responsible for ordering (or having subordinates order) the execution of 3,000+ Chilean citizens over his 17-year rule.
