I am glad to hear this because I feel both Christians and Israel are safer with him in power...not that he will be put in charge, but it shows the power struggle over there is going in the right direction.
What really surprises me is that Putin is happy about this news too. Seems I sure do agree with Putin an awful lot lately, now that’s scary.

That’s because Putin shares far more values with you (and me) than do most of the voters and leaders of America, not to mention the MSM and all of the rest.

Now THAT is what is truly scarey...

The current generation of Muslims doesn’t deserve Democracy or Republican government.

They deserve whatever despot seizes power.

At one point and perhaps yet he was quite ill.

I actually thought he'd passed. Remarkable.

We still don’t know Mubarek has NOT actually died. Recall the way Venezuela lied to the world about Hugo Chavez. Whatever the tactic, I like bringing Mubarek back into the picture. I don’t know how healthy he would be, or if one of his sons now jailed could be sprung out to hold office, having been officially ‘blessed’ by Papi Mubarek. The Egyptians have now realized their mistake in putting these monsters in power, but it may be too late to keep the country as one nation.

Thanks to my favorite funny time watching non rewarding tv show, the “Big Bang Theory!”.. I know about Schodinger’s cat thanks to Sheldon explaining it to Penny.
