Yes she is. Neck deep in it. It’s hard to imagine others beside Obama being such embedded traitors, but there she is going right along with him.

Saul Alinsky disciples. She wrote her Wellsley thesis on Alinsky. She hasn’t changed. She’s gotten worse with age.

I’m calling it a night. Prayers for all.

does anyone have a link to that page which lists all the “days of rage” protests that were scheduled? I’ve been skimming through this thread to find it, but I’m thinking maybe it’s on another thread entirely. I can’t seem to track it down.

As you all know, I have been watching the events in Egypt with a heavy heart. While a great deal of the weight comes from personal experience and sentimental connections to Egypt, a great deal of it comes from the knowledge that the burdens of the Egyptian people are ones we share.

So to try to make sense of all that, I wrote a short blog post. I thought some of you might appreciate the parallels.

2:33pm Participants in talks between the Egyptian government and opposition groups, including the Muslim Brotherhood, have agreed to form a constitutional reform committee, AFP quotes a government official as saying.

And speaking of Hillary:

2:26pm US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has cautiously welcomed the Muslim Brotherhood’s involvement in political dialogue in Egypt, telling National Public Radio that Washington would “wait and see” how talks develop.

Today we learned the Muslim Brotherhood decided to participate, which suggests they at least are now involved in the dialogue that we have encouraged ... We’re going to wait and see how this develops, but we’ve been very clear about what we expect.”

From AlJ live blog:

1347: More comments on the talks from opposition figures: Rifaat Saeed, who heads the Tagammu (Assembly) party, and took part in the talks, said on state TV it was agreed that the state of emergency law would be lifted as soon as the “security situation returns to normal”.\r

From BBC live blog:

1326: But Mr El-Erian also said the Muslim Brotherhood would “re-read the situation every day, and if there was no sincerity, no honesty, we would take another decision”. He added the Muslim Brotherhood was “keen to keep the army away from political discussion”.

1324: Essam El-Erian, a senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood, has told BBC World Service his organisation is now part of a broad-based group of opposition parties in direct talks with the Egyptian vice-president. “We hope to take the country to stability, security and democracy, which can bring in the future prosperity, equality, justice and human dignity for all Egyptians.”

Mubarak is probably in a state of shock that he is negotiating with the MB.

So, it appears that the situation has morphed into what I had feared most.

The MB has stepped forward as the great hero, the one who brings both sides together, the one who “insures” order, justice, “Dumbocracy”.

They are patient. They will calmly wait till the elections start and like Palestine, the people will vote in Islamic Socialism. (To start.)

Things will probably settle down for a while, the people are badly needing food, water, and to rebuild their homeland. They will settle for anything that is presented to them as “reasonable”.

Morning Everyone. Thanks to you SE Mom, I remembered an encounter from a long time ago. Met a young person (male) identifying as being from Iran. To make a long story short, this person said he wished he had been in Iran when the Shah had been overthrown. To say I was shocked does not begin to describe my thoughts that day I spoke with this person. I did shake this person's hand, and felt dirty, from that point. One final note, this person stated, When I tell people here in America, person speaking is Not myself here, Americans sit up straight and I sense fear (this is a long held memory of mine) and this person from Iran laughed. Thus SE Mom I appreciate the opportunity given by you for me to relate back to an encounter. Who was this person from Iran? What is this person doing now? Did this person have an agenda which would be harmful to the United States? These questions and many more haunt me nearly everyday.

The Obama administration has been emphasizing the speed of developments it seeks in every statement it issues. In my opinion, every hour that passes in which they don’t get what they want makes the situation more dangerous.

Many on this thread sense fear in many aspects of this situation. Please take time to read FReeper HushTX at this link if you haven’t already. He has some very good thoughts on this subject.
