Correct. Events in Egypt are NOT this:

The movie is disgusting and was produced by "an Israeli-American California real-estate developer who called it a political effort to call attention to the hypocrisies of Islam." Terry Jones the Koran burner is promoting it. The Islamic extremist terrorist group Ansar al-Sharia carried out the attack on the Libyan embassy. Watch part the movie.

Link with an article.

Of course Mittens is already out making empty headed statements criticizing the President. I wonder what Romney would do considering he has no foreign policy experience at all. Talk about American leadership while lobbing cruise missiles and drones all over the Mid-east.

As far as I am concerned it is time to stop US support for the thuggish terrorist state of Israel. What they have done to Palestine is reason enough to dump them.

I wonder when the Christian extremist in this country are going to start murdering Muslims. 3...2...1

I will pass on the movie, thanks.

That salon link crashed my firefox real good. Probably has to do with the update for POS Flash and me not doing a clean install. again.

The statement by the Mitt Romney campaign said in part that, "I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi. It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks."

Mitt Romney has yet to learn when to speak out on important issues and when it is appropriate to go silent on certain issues.

One usually sees better acting and production quality in commercials.

Romney tried to attribute the statement released from the Cairo Embassy to the President and now it is backfiring on him.

Pass the popcorn.....its going to be quite a show to watch him try to take his foot out of his mouth this time.

I thought that any effort to politicize this was disgusting?

I do believe that you have just made your most honest and accurate post on this board. You will be thrilled to have a president whose primary foreign policy experience is making phone calls to soldiers' spouses. If he is elected, how long do you think it will be before he reinstates the draft? Will you be surprised if there is a way to buy out of the draft (maybe he thinks he can finance some neocon adventurism that way)?
