Conservatives Claim to be Against Tyranny - Then Why is Rush Pro-Mubarak? (Rush Limbaugh, Iran)

[Lafferty Daniel]

I'd like to know what Tea People and Rush fans think about his support for that tyrant Mubarak. You guys have been complaining that Obama is a tyrant since he's been in office, yet you don't seem to have a problem with tyranny in other nations including Egypt.

I bet if the Obama administration was in favor of Mubarak staying in power, guys like Rush would be saying the opposite. Rush would be saying that Obama supports dictators.

He probably didn't even know who Mubarak was until this week.

I'm conservative, but I don't get all my opinions from Rush Limbaugh. I doubt many do. I prefer democracy in Egypt. I support the protestors and hope they will get real democracy. I'd hate to see all of their protesting produce another dictatorship that's hostile to the US.

Perhaps you weren't around when Peanut Farmer was President, and the Shah was the boss over in Iran. He wasn't perfect, but he was a whole lot better than the alternative. An alternative that was realized when the dbag from Plains, GA pulled the rug out from under the Shah - The Ayatollah.

Parallel situation, in the main, in Egypt. Read up on a litte Boy.. I mean Girl Scout Troop called The Muslim Brotherhood.

You think there is tyranny in Egypt under Mubarak?

Just wait until the protestors get their way.

Nobody knows what's going to happen. You're kidding yourself if you think you have the answer.

Most of the protestors are young males who are sick of having a dictator in charge, but still, we don't know what's going to happen.

That's the point. At least Mubarak has been of help to us. We have no idea what we'll get instead.

Egypt is going to get an Iranian style government. That's freakin' obvious.

That is what the protestors want. And whatever Western Power(s) are behind this want it also.

Book It.

So in other words, you are in favour of dictatorship?

Please explain how that is freakin' obvious because for me it's not.
