White House silent as Egypt’s president grabs power, moves toward Shariah law
Daily Caller ^ | 11/26/12 | Neil Munro

White House officials remained silent during the extended Thanksgiving weekend, as Egypt’s pro-democracy groups called on President Barack Obama to condemn Thursday’s power grab by their country’s Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi.

Morsi decreed Nov. 22 that his pronouncements and edicts were beyond the reach of judicial review. The announcement was met by resistance from the nation’s top judges, who said they would fight Morsi’s unusual self-elevation to near-dictator status.

“I am waiting to see, I hope soon, a very strong statement of condemnation by the U.S., by Europe and by everybody who really cares about human dignity,” declared Mohamed ElBaradei, who is one of Egypt’s more visible non-Islamist politicians.

About the Thanksgiving Day decrees by Mohammed Morsi, can someone post the parts where he’s power grabbing?

I’m just curious.

Obama is a Muslim Communist who approves of what the Egyptian Muslim president is doing and Obama will do it also.

The only difference is that the media will not report it when Obama assumes total power. If the media doesn't report it then it didn't happen

1. Benghazi didn't happen
2. Fast and furious didn't happen
3. solyndra didn't happen
4. Obama passing the Dream act with an executive order didn't happen
5. Obama signing the ACTA treaty didn't happen
6. Economy in recession didn't happen
7.
.....

1000...

You can bet your ass that our leaders are jealous, and if only they could seize
that kind of unlimited power the USA would be a utopia. Hitler thought the same way.
The good over there is the power, which is why Obama is ignoring the bad. Referred to as necessary.

Democratically chosen Shariah law is democracy in action...

Not a lot of difference between Shariah, Democracy and Monarchy they are all MOB RULE by mobsters..

Just different MOBS.. Urpeans are a very confused lot..

Hillary had a hand in Morsi proclaiming himself an Ayatollah. While in Gaza, she probably explained to him how America just gave the nod to their own Dictator so “why not you do it”? Way too many coincidences with this administration for them to be coincidences. 0bamatollah’s promotion of Sharia Law should land in him prison, but instead will land us all evaporated in a nuclear mist.

Should read, “America silent as White House grabs power, moves toward Shariah law”.

In Alexandria, an angry crowd stormed the offices of the Muslim Brotherhood from which President Morsi draws his support. They ransacked the building and then set it on fire.

If the USG were in friendly hands, the Company would have its assignment.
