Mubarak to resign, maybe tonight.

lol! Hi there Rollo. We've cared about people in that region for many, many years ... under many, many U.S. presidents ... presidents who left office accomplishing absolutely no resolve in these matters!! It is laughable that suddenly it's President Obama's smarts alone that must be questioned ... lol!!!! During all those same years, under "many presidents," seems the "people" their hopes and freedom seeking desires were not a real issue ... ah, apparently! I applaud our President Obama's reasoned approaches to a very fluid historical event in Egypt ... I'm most happy that he is "calm" and not reactionary, kneejerking American polices but rather, he (the president) leaves the people of Egypt to carry out what they say THEY WANT.

Gladys, we just want to make sure democratic forms of government have a seat at the table. So far we know that the communists, socialists and Muslim Brotherhood are actively campaigning among the protesters and voters in Egypt. Why should we just stand back and watch when the others aren't? Also, we still have little to no idea what most Egyptians want. The rioters make up less than 1/10 of 1% of the people of Egypt. Are they the only ones who get a voice here? The Obama administration has been nothing but evasive and contradictory in this issue. He doesn't seem willing to help bring a democratic form of government there. It's more like he's waiting to see what happens, but if he doesn't back freedom for Egyptians, then he's basically saying he'd be just as happy whatever the outcome. If all the Egyptians hear from are the proponents of totalitarian style governments, how will they get to vote for a free society?

ParaTed, I hear ya and of course, I take your views! I'm just not sure whether or not you've been listening to President Obama ... if so, you've surely precieved what he has been saying differently than I. I have never heard President Obama speak of "totalitarian style government" as any resolve in Egypt! I doubt very seriously that the protesters are hearing only from radical groups, after all their movement was reportedly started on Facebook!! How do "we" make sure democratic forms of government is at the table in Egypt if "we" dictate who should be at that table? I think it would be fair to say that "we" DON'T know who is actively campaigning among the protesters. Why should there be some boogey man ... communists, socialists and now the "muslim Brotherhood" ... wow! From what I've heard and read the muslim brotherhood is not muslim clergy, they are many highly educated Egyptians ... doctors, school teachers, engineers, and many average Egyptian people. If in our own country, the Tea Party has a right to run for elective offices, why don't members of the muslim brotherhood? Some "conservatives" claim that President Obama is ineffective in this matter, I ask you to note the timeline of events in Egypt ... I also ask you to note just how long it took the civil rights movement right here in America to finally be real. How many labeled the good Reverend, Doctor Martin L. King a "communist" ... all in an effort to suppress the civil rights of decent, hardworking contributing Americans.

Guess hey over throw the military. WHich is impossible if they have nothing to do it with. LIving here dont really prepare you for a country that is under milatary law

No one stands on their own two feet in a military regime.
