Why Ferdinand Marcos is a lemon despot compared with Moammar Gaddafi?

Easy question, let me count the ways: 1. Unlike the self-claimed guerrilla fighter that was Marcos, Gaddafi was a true soldier. 2. Marcos ruled for 20 years, Gadhafi outlasted him, plundering Libya for four decades 3. Marcos surrendered and cowardly escaped bringing along families, cronies and monies. Gaddafi and sons and friends stayed, fought till the end. 4. Marcos probably died like an old and ailing well taken care of Shih Tzu. Gaddafi died like a rat. 5. Marcos's corpse fully made up, displayed like Snow White in a glass-freezer inside an ostentatious mouseleum in his hometown. What remains of Gaddafi is inside a Supermarket freezer displayed like a "Botcha." In the end, whatever the little differences in qualities between these two guys, there's no denying that they were tyrants, they deserved their fate. It is just too bad, that it seems the Libyans got the better deal, because up to this time, Filipinos have yet to have the justice they deserve.
