Faux News Crawl - New concern Obama will be known as President who lost Egypt
Seriously? First of all, what did he have to do with it? Second, I guess regime change and spread of freedom/democracy are no good unless we bomb the living bajeebers out of the place first.

Can't they go one day without some inane smear attempt? I guess I just answered my own question.

26. Fuck the neo-cons
and the imperialists.
It's a bit of a joke to see morons trying to give orders to countries that have had thousands of years of civilization.

There will be change.

17. Already are
I had a right winger tell me last night, with the Egypt coverage on a tv in front of us, that President Obama is "just another Jimmy Carter". I tried to figure out what on Earth prompted that? Iran, I had not connected the reference until I saw this post.

The righties think the US literally owns the rest of the world. Sick.

5. Wow, that's rich
On one hand, they're blaming Obama for "losing" Egypt, while others are saying Egypt is currently being saved thanks to the Bush doctrine.

Talk about having it both ways! :crazy:

11. Don't worry
If Egypt emerges as a vibrant Democracy because of this, you can bet that Faux News will credit the Bush Doctrine.

12. Yes- you did answer you own question
The right-wing seems to live for SOMETHING to be upset about and/or scared about. I can't imagine that many of those people are seemingly capable of having a pleasant existence. I remember that even when Bush was President and Republicans controlled Congress, they were STILL always somehow at the mercy of the evil fascistic tyrannical left-wing subversives perpetually threatening to dominate and oppress conservatives and evangelicals. :eyes:

16. Translation: Plant a meme from the Heritage Foundation with a screen crawl on FOX,
10s of millions of Teabaggers take it as gospel and that's all the neocons need.

That's what Fox is for, planting the propaganda. No thinking necessary.

23. They've gone from just playing with their poop
to consuming it as their steady, daily diet.

Look how proud they are, eating their own shit.
