“These people have overthrown a dictator with little violence!”
They have overthrown nothing....
The ARMY, which was the power in Egypt, is STILL the power in Egypt. The corrupt apparatchiks are still the corrupt apparatchiks.
All that’s happened is that the figurehead at the top has resigned, to be replaced by another, as yet unnamed figurehead.
YES! Any word on if we can over turn Zero's ban on offshore drilling? And open ANWAR now for drilling!!!
No doubt. After all he is a glory hound.
I’m with you. I don’t even think the anxiety is real. It’s just domestic politics.
The guy is a regular charlatan.
Damage US interests while appearing to care about the peoples of Egypt, for which nothing has changed.
Mr “caresabouthepeople” wants to cut off the heat to the poor during the worst winter in recent history.
But hey, you’ll have “free” health care.
What a con man.
ULULULULULULULULULULULU

ULULULULULULULULULULULU
ULULULULULULULULULULULU

ULULULULULULULULULULULU
ULULULULULULULULULULULU!
And you can quote me on that.
Mobs rarely consider what will happen after they accomplish their goal.
This is why, in many cases, the cure ends up being much worse than the disease.
They’re going to regret Democracy.
Remember the Orange Revolution? How did that turn out.
Not sure why he didn’t step down yesterday if he was going to just do it one day later. Flip flopper
Mubarak Shot a second round 66?
No wonder he’s stepping down.
Obviously he’s going to join the PGA Seniors tour.
Heck with a 66 he could probably go on the Pro Tour.
“WW3 here we come, pray for Israel...”
I am sitting at my desk at work just sick. This could be BAD really BAD.
G-d please watch over Israel and Jews everywhere. G-d Please protect the United States.
Has this been confirmed? What if he comes out and says “psyche”?
Drill Baby, DRILL!
(And let's start building a few nuke stations, too. And a little natural gas wouldn't hurt.....)
Oh really? They have done more to end tyranny than we have in our own nation...treat them with the respect they deserve.
NBC lauding how great Obama has handled this.
I would recommend every FReeper who has a Republican Congressman and woman to call them now and demand that we cut off ALL foreign aid to these terrorist states immediately.
If Pakistan goes to Al-Qaeda they get nukes, now that the Islamists are taking over Egypt do they still get our money?
I bet Zero wants it that way.
The Egyptian Constitution dictates that the Presidential Authority cannot got to Suileman - It must go to the head of the Egyptian legislature. SO, essentially, both Mubarak and his VP are out and the MB is in. This is going to be a freakin’ mess. I’m sure the Israeli military is going on alert.
Mubarak has stepped down more times now than Yasser Arafat died.
