“They were protesting food shortages and economic problems.

The MSM are the ones who declared it was about freedom.
Chile is rioting over food. NOT freedom.”

Not true my friend...think about it.

You are supporting tyranny over people. That’s what you want and that’s what you’re going to get. You own it.

The MSM is trying mightily to spin what was in essence a military coup.

“Zer0 takes opposite positions at different times and sometimes in the same speech. This enables the leftist media to praise him no matter the outcome of any situation. The leftist media is so disgusting.”

he takes opposite positions in the SAME SENTENCE! This is his MO since writing in Harvard Law Review. Everyone thought he supported their position.

Speech patterns like — I know you all believe (insert x) and I do too, but I want to make this clear that (insert opposite x).

poster does not even understand why all the posts are directed to him or her.

WPIN just read and educate yourself about what Soros, MB and the far left are doing over there and why groupe like unions and code pink are or even why obama chose that city two years ago.

Hmmm, you appear to have issues of low self esteem...I was not questioning your education. But I do question your thinking and philosophy.

In a nutshell...would you prefer to support tyranny rather than risk for liberty? That is really what we are talking about here. Will your fear of the worst overtake your conviction for people, who have the exact same rights you do, to be free?

Those are really all that matters here, nothing else...there are no other issues.

Wow now I have low self esteem? You really are a fool and I am starting to think that you may be a troll who has been a sleeper agent. I'm pinging the Admin_Moderator because I believe that you may be a sleeper agent from the left.

You did not answer my question whether you support the Muslim Brotherhood. You probably don't know anything about the Muslim Brotherhood. You probably don't know that they killed Sadat, they killed about 30 German tourists a few years ago and want to destroy the US and Israel.

This isn't liberty this is an Islamic takeover of a country that has a peace accord with Israel. The Muslim Brotherhood said they are going to destroy that treaty. Even moderates like Chris Wallace are saying the same thing that I am and manc and the other FReepers who know what we are talking about.

Wake up and realize that the Muslim Brotherhood is not for democracy. And if you don't know that Ayers and Code Pink were behind this than you are misinformed or simply delusional or just a leftist who wants to discredit this website.

“where do you get your news from?

Seriously you have no idea that code pink is over there and have been getting money for this.
This has NOTHING to do with Bush or Reagan this is a far left wing take over with the help of radical muslims.

Ayers has been over there a few times since obama chose that city to do his speech, unions have been sending money,

I can’t even believe I’m having to explain on here to an y poster that the far left socialists, marxists and radical muslims are behind this, and yet you think they should be treated with respect

again where on earth have you been the last two weeks and years?”

The people of Egypt lived under tyranny, they have overthrown that tyranny. That is a good thing. I don’t think the marxists, socialists, etc. have been doing very well the last three decades. You may not have noticed that, but try discerning what has been going on in the world.

Why do I think the people around here that think this a great thing are actually anti-Israel. They know this could very well be a bad thing for Israel and they are all for it. We have some of those.

you keep harping about the same thing, freedom and yet you seem really to not understand why code pink, Soros, MB Ayers are over there

think about it and think why others are trying to help you.

You can have faith in God but for crying out loud understand what is really happening, people did not just get out of bed and protest,
This has been planned for years and since obama went to Cairo

you still cannot face the fact not view that the communists socialists and marxists plus radical muslims are doing there, think

Wpin thinks they just got out of bed fed up and went on a protest and seems to not understand that code pink etc are there and Soros is behind this

He/she seems to be missing this point. Freedom is driving the rebellion in the hearts of the protesters, but because they don't know what freedom really means (they've never had it), the radical left and the jihadist will be their teachers and leaders. That's why this is all so dangerous, and there's nothing to celebrate about.

Ironically, it was Carter who won Egypt in 1978, then drunk with success he ousted the Shaw and lost Iran to the fundamentalists.

I don't think Carter did anything. He just happened to be President at the time and took the credit for it.

I have great faith in God. I am praying that He will keep the US safe when the Muslim Caliphate spreads throughout the ME. I have Egyptian Coptic Christian friends who have friends and family still in Egypt. I share their heartfelt fears.

“give them respect, you think Bush was for this .”

Yes, I actually listened to President Bush and understood his Middle East strategy for liberating not just Afghanistan and Iraq, but all of the Middle East. It is our only chance to avoid a massive war. This is an opportunity...it may not end up well, but is our ONLY chance for protection. A free, prosperous people will not be too interested in killing innocents. It is that simple...getting there is what is complicated. The only relevant question for you however is...do you really prefer to support a people living under tyranny over risking for liberation? Think about it...I think you will decide otherwise.

It shows he's from Illinois I have never seen him on the Illinois page or any of our threads regarding Mark Kirk. I'm pinging some of our more active members from IL to see if they've ever heard of him.

Guys have you ever seen wpin? His page says Illinois, I can imagine he would be a Kirk supporter hell maybe even Quinn because you know philosophically speaking a huge income tax raise is good because you know it helps out the poor people get food stamps and money so that they can blow it on important things like drugs.

So not only is this guy making FR bad, he is making IL FReepers look bad. I can tell you I don't recall him on any of our threads regarding IL politics so he is probably a sleeper like I originally said.

are you being this ignorant to the facts on purpose or are you on a wind up?

Many have given you facts about the far left over there and yet you dismiss them the same as you dismiss the MB as nothing to be worried about.

Ayers, code pink, unions a revolutionary yesterday got back for there and arrived in the Uk saying how they are behind this and that it is time for them to raise against Govts in the west.

will you actually look at what people are saying to you and then try to at least understand

I think so.
No one can be this ignorant surely.
I’ve worked with kids who have more of an open mind .
It’s not like there is no info out there , hell there is enough info on here for them to understand how the far elft have been over there and still over there working to topple this Govt.

I’m starting to lose it and best if just give in as I remember a phrase once told to me.
You cannot educate ignorance

I have to apologize, I didn’t recognize your problem to it’s full extent. I am not a “sleeper agent”...or a troll. I believe in freedom...I bet you do to. Try not to worry too much over what is happening in the Middle East, there is nothing we can do about it at the moment, except perhaps to pray for these people.

I’m stunned that people on here still do not know that code pink is over there and radical left wing groups are there too

Rush Limbaugh confirming this on his show right now!
