“Egypt is currently a beneficiary of more than $1 billion in annual American aid....”

.
That amount will probably be increased substantially in order to appease these ingrates and our spineless response will encourage other muslim countries to copy the Libya and Egypt.

"Egypt is currently a beneficiary of more than $1 billion in annual American aid...."

Neal Boortz said something years ago that helps put things in perspective. He stated that taxpaying families pay, on average, about $10,000 per year in income tax. (That may be tax filer, not net payers, but it's in the ball park) So, for congress to do something like this, they would need to sit down in front of however many families it would take to foot the bill, in this case 100,000, and tell them why they needed to sacrifice a vacation or braces for the kid or replacing the car that's on its last leg or paying the house off early so that congress can instead, confiscate their money and do whatever it is it wants to do. In this case, take that hard-earned money and give it to people who hate us, want to kill us, and will take that money and try to do exactly that. 100,000 families! I dare one spineless, congressperson to defend stealing taxes from 100 freaking thousand families to give to terrorists.
