“The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

Oh so true. Do you know who the Czech is that said this? Sure makes a good quote.

“Who are we to tell the leader of a sovereign country, (an ally who’s been our friend for 30+ years), to step down?”

Every ally in the world will now be suspicious of the U.S., wondering when Barry will dictate their internal affairs. Barry is alienating the U.S. from the rest of the world.

"Allowing Mr. Mubarak to remain in office until September, as he has offered, would allow the secular opposition to begin organizing for the election. So far, the only organized opposition is the Brotherhood."

That's the thing though, isn't it? Is Obama that clueless or is he deliberately destroying a sovereign nation and giving it over to islamists? He traveled the word apologizing for American "meddling"...and what he Obe doing if not openly meddling?

Yeah, sticking the knife in the back, gently, like Biden, Obie & Co. tried to do to Karzai but then backed off.

So, Hosni, what’s that sticking outta yer back, say, an American knife made in China, lol.

On the bright side, Obama’s presidency just got burnt in the streets of Cairo.
