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.
Actually since democracies are mod rule...the real question is why are the liberals who claimed that we shouldnt have removed the dictator of saddam husain, in iraq, all supportive of removing this dictator, and alowing even worse to come in with the Muslim brotherhood, and sharia law
example; while Egypt might be a frying pan right now with a dictator.. the fire would be the radical Muslim brotherhood
pick a winner...do we really want to chance going from the fryingpan to the fire???
yes there are alot of assumptions
but as they say..."the devil you know, as opposed to the devil you dont know"
it is similar (not exactly the same but similar) to Iran... the shah was a dictator,, loved by some hated by some....but the ayatollahs(sp?) are far worse
just because the 'people' vote -- mob rule-- a democracy...doesn’t mean it’s always a good thing....the majority wanted and continued slavery here in the usa for nearly 100 years before it was abolished

We had no right to remove Iraq's Dictator, just as we have no right to do the same in Egypt. Thankfully, we have a President that will not take such unilateral action.
Because they really aren't all that concerned about "democracy." They just like to throw around the word when it's convenient for their purposes--you know--it's SOUNDS all warm and fuzzy and patriotic--and then conveniently throw it away when they don't get what benefits them the most.
Supposed Communists (you know, the ones who form oppressive government run states and outlaw religion)...
like Code Pink (you know, the mom's and grandmothers who want the world to solve conflict with diplomacy vs. violence)
are accused of working hand in hand with Islamic fundamentalist terrorists (you know, the ones who want to form an oppressive THEOCRACY and impose state run religion)...
TO MARCH FOR DEMOCRACY!!
The evidence for this? The people in the streets are MARCHING! CARRYING SIGNS!! USING SOCIAL MEDIA!!
How, I ask you, could one of the most modern, secular countries in the Arab world figure out how to march, make signs, and use facebook, unless the ladies of code pink single handedly organized hundreds of thousands of people in a foreign country to overthrow a dictator?? It's a conspiracy I say!!
And now I'm off to tighten the band on my reynolds wrap hat...
Saying you are against tyranny and actually being against tyranny, are different things. It's like the GOP today, they say they are for the American people, but we all know, that is far from true.
So the GOP is exaclty like the Democrats? Exactly as I have always suspected.
1. Compare Mubarak to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, WHOMthe democrats supported when THEIR people started to revolt.
2. The "DICTATOR" has brokered peace deals, brought stability to the region, and btw, when you say dictator, tell me, what has he done to repress his people, other than to outlaw a fundamentalist terror organization that wants to destabilize the entire region?
To add fuel to the fire, you do realize that since Egypt has been one of our friends in the middle east, we have allowed them to purchase weapons and technology from us, and when the Muslim Brotherhood gets a hold of those weapons, they have already stated they intend to dissolve the peace treaty with Israel, AND they will have control of shipping through the SUEZ canal. You tell me who is worse, the dictator of Iran who our government supported, or the "Dictator" of Egypt who has brought peace and stability to the region?

Obama did not encourage Iranian protesters cries for Democracy
Obama throws Mubarak under the bus
Obama only opposes people friendly to he USA and defends our enemies.
