I fell asleep on the couch a few nights ago with the television going and my computer on my lap. The next thing you know I saw Joe Biden and he was saying he was appointed by Obama to head up the Egyptian transition team.
"I hope I am dreaming this." I said to myself.
The media coverage on this is being manipulated. Yesterday, as Mubarak called Obama's bluff by putting to rest the reports he's arranged his exile and is packing his bags and the government will continue the peaceful path to the already scheduled transition in September.
As soon as he does, Obama is out in the public square saying it isn't good enough to meet protester demands. Mubarak, he said, has not chosen a genuine path to democracy.
Here we were thinking the path of transitioning Presidents out of office was elections in a democracy.
We've been going about this all wrong.
If we get enough people to gather on Pennsylvania Avenue and raise a stink that he get out of our White House, he will meet our demands. This is the genuine path to democracy.
What a crock.
Israel, like the rest of us, is expressing their shock at Obama's sudden tack in Egypt.
It will be interesting to see Obama's reaction now that the Saudi King has told him to sit down and shut up.
According to media reports, the protesters have been wound up to peaceful riots and violence so it should be an interesting day. Keep it in your prayers because whatever Obama's end game is, he's up to no good and it is not going to pan out well for the Judeo-Christian world.
UPDATE
Hamas Congratulates Muslim Brotherhood for the victory of Mubarak's resignation.
"We congratulate the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt for this victory," said a Hamas leader, who led a Hamas rally on the streets of Gaza City....The less influential pro-Iran Islamic Jihad (Holy War) movement said in a press statement that it congratulates Egypt and its people "for this great achievement and this big step,
How long do you think the Muslim Brotherhood will wait before they publicly get into the driver's seat?
