As the LDS say: "When the emergency is upon you the time for preparedness has past."

Well, why doesn’t Obama save ‘em?

[cripplecreek]

I’m not mormon but you don’t need to be to recognize that as good advice.

LDS are second to none in preparedness.

It is good to heed and implement their methodology.

Well, why doesn’t Obama save ‘em?

He'll send the wookie to tell them they shouldn't be eating so much anyway.

Mubarak’s going to wear down the protesters.

Herein lies the test of the “brotherhood”. Emotional zealots cannot sustain chaos. Guns or butter fella’s. In the end the public just wants butter twice a week and HBO.

I've been stocking up on canned and food items for quite some time now. Been buying anything I can open, set a small fire and heat up to eat. Looks like I'll be using all my money towards our $4-5 dollar gas prices.

Also started incorporating the Coupon Whispers way of doing so (PJ-Comix).

What? You mean the ‘youths’ didn’t think of food before they went rioting for ‘change’?

[BenLurkin]

Don’t give him any ideas or he’ll be pizzing away your tax dollars on a massive food lift to people who hate America

As the LDS say: "When the emergency is upon you the time for preparedness has past."

Yes, but few ordinary people in third world countries can afford the luxury of preparedness, either in terms of cost or storage space and suitable packaging. Especially difficult in hot and sometimes humid climates.

[newnhdad]

these people are being used for an ends that will bring nothing but pain for the rest of the world.

Relative to the alternatives, plane tickets are cheap.

Rule 1 of survival: when SHTF, don’t be there.
Living in a desert or below sea level is a timely clue.

[allmendream]

Indeed, hard to build up a reserve for a ‘rainy day’ when you are not getting enough to eat day to day.

If most Egyptians had a good supply of canned food ten years ago, today they might have an extra surviving child, or a little more meat on their bones - but almost certainly they wouldn’t have the canned goods.

Things are going to get uglier

Oops...no plan B? Why not just eat your Islamic revolution?

[rahbert]

Egyptians don’t hate America.

[Vigilanteman]

I hope to hell you are right. I think he can get through this if BO will just STFU. Mubarak also needs to have a few commandos in place to arrange dirt naps for key people in the Muslim Brotherhood.

Scary times.

[swarthyguy]

They were gonna order takeout from their fones!

Guess what, the Islamists, organized will provide for their people.
