I voiced concern for this possibility yesterday or Wednesday. My view was to look at the Rasmussen poll and see which way it moves. Today was a good sign but we need a few more days to say how the country will view this crisis.

Point 1: The MSM will be wearing their full protect Obama at all costs battle gear. They will make him and Hillary look like Saints if possible.

Point 2. Don’t discount the possibility of a rally around the flag response to the events in the Middle East. I don’t expect it but I don’t rule it out either.

And don’t discount the possibility (Tin Foil Hats ON) that this is being orchestrated by friends of Axelrod and Company. If sufficiently desperate, they could be orchestrating a Wag the Dog Stragegy as a way saving the baby. (Tin Foil Hats Off).

Point 3. Why would al Qaeda and friends start something that they though would damage The One’s re-election chances? That makes no sense to me.

The longer this goes on the worse it is going to get for the Obama team. O’s team, by accusing everyone who says they knew this was coming of lying is painting themselves into a corner. All sorts of evidence, like the story below, are starting to come out. Going to be tough for the O team to spin away that they did NOT know something that was common knowledge even in US blogs.

Jihadis Threaten to Burn U.S. Embassy in Cairo

Jihadi groups in Egypt, including Islamic Jihad, the Sunni Group, and Al Gamaa Al Islamiyya have issued a statement threatening to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to the ground.

According to El Fagr, they are calling for the immediate release of the Islamic jihadis who are imprisonment and in detention centers in the U.S. including Guantanamo Bay: “The group, which consists of many members from al-Qaeda, called [especially] for the quick release of the jihadi [mujahid] sheikh, Omar Abdul Rahman [the “Blind Sheikh”], whom they described as a scholar and jihadi who sacrificed his life for the Egyptian Umma, who was ignored by the Mubarak regime, and [President] Morsi is refusing to intervene on his behalf and release him, despite promising that he would. The Islamic Group has threatened to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo with those in it, and taking hostage those who remain [alive], unless the Blind Sheikh is immediately released.”
