Hey, we must do whatever we can to boost the power of young radical Muslims who desire our destruction. Any other concerns must take a backseat.

In some ways this guy makes a good point. If we lose Egypt to big time extremism, the world will be a much much worse place.

Maxi-Pad Shields is one of the idiot liberals that our tax dollars support through PBS.
To: mandaladon
They need to be reminded what the priorities are. The American people are too docile.

Ol’ Wattleneck crossed the river into silly senility many decades hence. He bares his teeth at his TV opponents but there’s no bite. He’s a floater.

We are not going to save Egypt from extremism. If we can’t make jobs HERE for American citizens, what on earth would we do with money we don’t have for THEM? Sure, they would be happy to TAKE it. I just hope we don’t give it to them.
