Well well, and we finally hear from the Tea Party
#Obama again fiddles while Egypt burns, fanning the flames of radical Islam with windy lip service & empty rhetoric. #tcot #teaparty #ocra

Never mind that these guys have no clue WHERE Egypt is... or for that matter who hosni is...

1. Sure sounds like they wanna send in the troops
O I have an idea lets round up all the tea baggers regardless of age, create a new army division, force them to serve and send them to the middle east, see how long they last.

4. I was thinking the same way about people that do not
want the gays in the military

Anyone that says no to gays, then they serve until gays are accepted
starting with mccain

8. I didn't say they knew what they where talking about
just that they should like they want some random invisible troops to be deployed.

16. I can assure you, they want no troops wasted on this
They're just glad this happened on Obama's watch, rather than Bush's. I'm seeing a comparison here to Jimmy Carter and Iran, it surely must have occurred to them.

19. This is like Iran?
How, in their fevered delusions, is this situation comparable? Did the protesters in Egypt take hostages?
:wtf:

20. Not yet.
But this looks a lot like Iran in the early days of the overthrow of the Shah. Clearly, it's wishful thinking on the part of the reich-wing to remind the American public of how that situation played out, it feeds into the narrative of Barack Obama as this generation's Jimmy Carter.

I certainly hope that President Obama has people around him who are mindful of the mistakes that were made during that time.

21. Speaking of Jimmy Carter, I saw a bumper sticker the other day
that said something like "It took a Jimmy Carter to get a Ronald Reagan" :puke:

Edited on Sat Jan-29-11 12:26 AM by HubertHeaver
before they hit the ground.


Edit to add parenthetical expression and the :sarcasm: thingy

13. Sarah thinks she is a foreign policy expert because she left Alaska.
And she thinks the lower 48 states belong to a different country!

(She also thinks that Hawaii doesn't count as a state because it is a couple of islands. And everyone knows that islands can't be states, they're islands! Besides, Obama was born there . . . supposedly.)

14. "HAW-sni? Was he on Hee Haw?
I'm pretty sure he wasn't on The Beverly Hillbillies, 'cause I have EVERY episode and I'd know it if he was in that. Unless Jethro had an alias, he was a real rascal, but he'd never pick such a furrin name for an alias. 'Course he was good with a fiddle, too, and...what was it we were talkin' 'bout?"
