Golden-Notebook: Roslin is such a fascist, and I still love her.

I have a hard time understanding that. Like, I mean, of course you can love Laura Roslin, this isn’t some kind of Roslin-ian/Adamian empire we’re living under, but her behavior after the 1st Earth debacle where she just flat refuses to address her people and hides out in Adama’s room and yet also doesn’t resign for a REALLY LONG TIME? I can’t really forgive her as a character for that, and I can’t forgive the writers for expecting me to continue to like her. Also, while Tom Zarek is a cold-blooded shit, Roslin’s inaction basically seals the fate of the quorum (those poor bastards). I wouldn’t be delighted with a fascist dictator who actually made good decisions but by the end of s4, Roslin is a fascist dictator who makes NO decisions.
