Now what?

Obama played nation builder by destroying the one solid nation in the Middle East under Hosni Mubarak (a friend to the Israel peace treaty), in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Egyptian populace rose up in mass to turn out Obama's handpicked Muslim leader.

Where do we go now?

Can we be any more intrusive (and stupid) in Egypt?

    I don’t think Morsi and the brotherhood were going to do any good, so that’s OK. The military vowed to stay out of politics then seized power with a coup, that’s uncomfortable. They write new constitutions all the time, that’s not recommended for a state of a state of health. Let’s see how long until they get to elections. They’re a long way from stability though. No touristism has to hurt. I think the price of oil will go down.

    WWIII has already started.

    By the way. Glad to see you haven't shrugged from the Gulch yet. While sometimes provocative, your comments stir great debates. Keep it up please.

    What a mess....

    Anyone remember the Middle Eastern political picture when Bush turned over the 'keys' to the State Department? It wasn't anything even close to this.

    Watch your gas prices start going up as all of the dust settles...and PRAY that the Strait of Hormuz doesn't get closed down (or pump your bicycle tires up).
