Bye, Bye Mubarak

At this point, it's not a matter of if, but when.

Hosni Mubarak said he would step down from power, but serve out his term as president of Egypt and "die on its soil."

That wasn't good enough for the emboldened protestors, who are clamoring for him to step down immediately.

i'm going to pre-empt the crazies and blame Israel, Obamacare, and President Bush for the unrest.

Guys, let's blame Loughner; he remotely inspired the militants in Egypt.
It was only a few weeks ago.

BTW: fluoridation being started in 1946...
how is that for postwar Communist conspiracy.

"i'm going to pre-empt the crazies and blame Israel, Obamacare, and President Bush for the unrest."

And abortion too! the pro-life wingnuts will try to connect abortion with Egypt somehow.

--Apparently ther Egypt situation IS at least in part connected
with the UNDENIABLE, century-long, ever unfolding,
TAX-FREE ultra-rich 'charitable' capstone foundations (on BOTH sides of the Atlantic)
and their plans and agendas afterall------

GET with the DE-program! and GET REAL!

Well Barry succeeded; Mubareks overthrow was planned behind the scene between Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood since 2009.
Mubarak was a dictator, his human rights deplorable, but he at least didn't declare war on Israel every day.

martin j smith| 2.2.11 @ 8:21AM

And hello what ? Muslim Brotherhood and other such groups. ? Good bye Peace and Hello War.
In any case Nasser--ups I meant Mubarak has to go. There is no question of that. I hope sane heads prevail but I put not one cent on that.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
