Mubarak forms Cabinet amid shouts of ‘Get out!’
‘This is a failed attempt — he is done with,’ one protester says
msnbc.com staff and news service reports
CAIRO — Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak swore in a new Cabinet on Monday, replacing one dissolved as a concession to unprecedented anti-government protests.

In the most significant change, the interior minister — who heads internal security forces — was replaced. A retired police general, Mahmoud Wagdi, was named to replace Habib el-Adly, who is widely despised by protesters for brutality shown by security forces.

Still, the new Cabinet is unlikely to satisfy the tens of thousands of protesters who have taken to the streets in cities across Egypt the past week demanding nothing short of the ouster of Mubarak and his entire regime.

As the unprecedented unrest in the Arab world’s most populous nation entered a seventh day, thousands of protesters poured into Cairo’s Tahrir Square chanting “Get out ... We want you out” and singing Egypt’s national anthem.

Soldiers looked on without taking action, which would have been inconceivable just a week ago.

“We don’t recognize any decisions Mubarak has taken since Jan. 25,” Mostafa el-Naggar, a supporter of prominent reform advocate Mohamed ElBaradei, referring to the first day of the protests. “This is a failed attempt — he is done with.”

I wonder if this would or could happen in America, we have already seen several instances the media control of Tea Party gatherings, peaceful protesters historical in size and scope, but the MSM and the Whitehouse ignored them.

America wants obama removed, America wants a return to what America is namely a Republic.

Obama is by almost every description a dictator sitting in the WH, and America believes that he will go quietly away if he should be voted out, but he controls voter fabrication, he controls the same class of predators namely the Clintons.

But obama wants America to act exactly like Egypt, our military may not be strong enough to remain neutral, not with it riddled with Islamic sympathizers. But undeniably we do have possible new leadership waiting to be thrust forward unlike Egypt. Also we have an unimaginable resource at our disposal of arms and ammunition that we can use to repel a hostile regime from forming in America.

The obama regime is treading softly hoping to not wake up America to the reality its being converted to a dictatorship. And with the MSM singing its lullabye sing song chant of nothing is wrong go back to sleep its no wonder America isn’t as reactive such as Egypt is.

But I would bet it all that if the MSM, internet and cell services were gone for more than a week America too will awke and do just what Egypt is doing, question is this, would obama want it to happen? By all indications he does indeed, for more control.
