The media wants what Obama wants so badly that if Mubarak stays (and I hope he does) the media and our MooBarack will be in tears.

I don't want a radical islamic government in egypt. I don't want Obama's muslim brotherhood to take over. I do want Mubarak to hunt them down, put them against a wall, then to call Obama and ask - with the receiver against a loud speaker - "Hey Obama, what do you get when you have smoke?"

I agree. I don’t know much about the situation, but seems that if Mubarek staying on can possibly keep Egypt from turning into another fully Islamic state, it will be a good thing.

The fact of the matter is that there is a strong tendency for military dictatorships in the Arab world to dissolve into either chaos or some kind of nutty fundamentalist theocracy.

I don’t want the Muslim Brotherhood running Egypt.

But I don’t want the Egyptian Military firing on peaceful demonstrators - that will radicalize the movement and that means an easy up for the Muslim Brotherhood. It will also discredit us in the eyes of the rest of the world since we have been their paymaster for so many years.

Also, do we REALLY believe those words in the Declaration of Independence? I DO.

Mubarak grew fat on American Taxpayer money to do what we wanted him to do - up to a point. But we should have told him those dollars were dependent upon his gradually moving Egypt and the Egyptian people towards a stable democracy free of Islamic control, and religious toleration for Egypt’s Coptic Christian Community.

We didn’t.

Now its time to re-evaluate our position. Mubarak is a lightening rod for radicalism. Nobody wants him there except the Muslim Brotherhood (as a good target) and the fat swine who run the Saudi Government and we know what great friends they are to us and freedom.

The best scenario is for him to ride off into the sunset with his $80M + in U.S. Taxpayer dollars, the military to take over, remove the “vice-president” he appointed and run the country for the interim of Mubarak’s remaining term WHILE SETTING UP THE GROUNDWORK for new opposition political parties to offset the nefarious influence of the Muslim Brotherhood when those elections do occur. We SHOULD have the fiscal influence on these people to make sure they do just that.

Lots of unconfirmed reports going round today.

This morning early we heard that King Abdullah died but I guess he didn’t.

Hannity and Limbaugh are saying news reports are saying the military will speak. Not Mubarak. Hannity believes reports Mubarak is not stepping down is not true. Nobody knows how this will end.

He wouldn’t have to step down if they threw his butt out of the country.

LOL

You didn't get the memo; Soros told him he is President of the U.S., and to just stand over there in the corner and do as he's told......

ONLY when he free-lances without a script does he get confused and befuddled.....

The only possible way this situation can have a good outcome is:

1. Mubarak does not resign
2. Mubarak imprisons and executes the Muslim Brotherhood slimes that have come out of the woodwork.
3. Because of protest pressure, Mubarak is forced to hold a fair election when the next election cycle occurs.

I know the chances are slim but we can pray.

I tend to agree.

If I was Mubarak I would ignore 0marxo the media and the leftists as they are all self loathing self destructive entities by nature. Taking advice from or being led to slaughter by the spineless unprincipled left is not an option for one that wishes well for Egypt.

He should surround and cordon off the protesters and allow any to leave but not return. Deport all foreign interlopers suspected of organizing and inciting unrest AND cut off the media soapbox.

A reminder for all those who think democracy in Egypt will bring down unicorns and marshmallows for all:

The "democratic election" the USA forced on the palestinian territoty resulted in the freedom loving muslims voting Hamas into power.

Mindlessly advocating democracy for a muslim country and thinking they will vote to join the civilized world is insanity.

It is about as naive as the people who voted for ill defined "Change" in the USA in 2008. Remember them? How many of them got the "Change" they anticipated?

"Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance."

-- Henry Louis Mencken (American Journalist and Critic (1880-1956)

Obama fancies himself the new age potent, but proves constantly how impotent he actually is.
