The Egyptian army has set a deadline of 4 p.m. Cairo time for the Muslim Brotherhood government of President Morsi to compromise with the people of Egypt (by stepping down.) Morsi refuses. 18 people were killed and 200 were wounded in clashes at Cairo University last night.
A Washington Post report from Cairo on dueling statements from Morsi and the army:
Waving his hands and shaking his fists in a 45-minute speech on national television late Tuesday, Morsi swore that he was committed to the democratic process that brought him to power and said that any attempts to subvert the constitution were unacceptable.
The army, in turn, posted a message to its Facebook page saying: We swear to God that we will sacrifice even our blood for Egypt and its people, to defend them against any terrorist, radical or fool.
In his speech, Morsi acknowledged that he had made mistakes during his year in office as Egypts first democratically elected president. But he appealed to Egyptians to give him more time to deal with the countrys problems.

Sick of the obozo son thug trail. Media focus causes race baiting. If they shutup about this stuff it would not be so sensational.
Fox finally live coverage
Whoa!

Typical Fox coverage. Two minutes of news and then back to commercials.
Hmmmm..

Now back onto saturation coverage of Zimmerman.
The internet has helped us so much. Can you imagine all this happening without it?! We would only have the lying MSM propaganda machine to gather our facts from.
Ridiculous! Fox is HLN-Lite sometimes. I’ve been following the Zimmerman trial but damn this takes precedence you’d think!
I am very hesitant to assign bias to the judge in this one. I have my mind made up already based on what I know of the facts. Naturally, I want everything to go in a way that helps move to that conclusion.
Now, there ARE a LOT of bad actors who forced this to trial. But, I’m not going to include the judge.
All started with Cairo speech.
oops - wrong thread sorry
I think it would be great and a spitball in obama’s eye. They are showing us how it’s done.
Fox is back on Zimmerman. WTF?
