We used to call them Earth Mothers. In my experience, it was never remotely necessary to sexually assault them.

Yeh, you would. Heh, the Occupy Wall Street crowd sure had the powers that be running scared with their drum circles and the way they wiggled their fingers in the air.

OOOooooOooOooo, people in funny costumes running around with signs decrying the tactics of those heroes of Wall St was a threat to the government.... Excuse me while I laugh.

Poor, poor Egypt.

Some Muslim Brotherhood guys threw a 17 year old off a building over the weekend. The other ones they threw off survived.

I do not think a Muslim Brotherhood run Egypt would be good. Morsi blew it by trying to set up a Khomeini style theocracy and more importantly not creating a consensus run society dedicated to solving economic problems. Who knows what will happen next. And we really cannot dictate events in the Middle East.

Oh, I dunno about that. You sure seem fixated on them, Mike. Why is that?

The media play they got was considerable for what that was worth. Apparently, that and six bits'll get you a cuppa coffee these days.
