Mubarak Speaks

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Said he would never leave Egypt and will be buried there.

[RummyChick]

Al Jazeera saying crowd chanting He Must Leave.

[The Unknown Republican]

I’m listening online and these dudes at the translation desk are still talking...is that happening on TV? I don’t think they realize they are still broadcasting.

[BCEagles]

The crowd got progressively more pissed off as he spoke. They look pretty feisty now.

[NormsRevenge]

Swami Obammy.. WRONG!!!

President Barack Obama says the world was 'witnessing history unfold' in
Egypt, amid reports President Hosni Mubarak may step down. AFPTV/POOL

---

The crowd mood has turned from jubilant to 'unhaPPy campers'.

[jazusamo]

I will not BEND TO foreign pressure"!!!

Maybe this will teach boy president a lesson but I doubt it. Mubarak sure thumbed his nose at him though, I love it!

[teddyballgame]

Said he would never leave Egypt and “will be buried there”.

An unfortunate choice of words.

[NRPM]

For hours, the news on the radio has been saying that he would step down. I KNEW that was premature. It’s discouraging that they just report it as if it’s a done deal when it hasn’t happened yet.

[Chickensoup]

where are you listening?

[1000 silverlings]

Faceoff, the King of Egypt vs the King of Kenya

[teddyballgame]

Now what Barry? Time to Win the Future.

[sheikdetailfeather]

Crowd is shouting “Down with Mubarak!”

[The Unknown Republican]

Fox News web feed. They just switched to Rand Paul speaking...but before they left the guy was talking about trying to find Shep’s extension...nothing too interesting, but a bit odd.

[catbertz]

haha Will be printed in his own blood if I had to guess.

[1000 silverlings]

wonder where Code Pink is right now

[johncocktoasten]

Someone better call the bowling alley. There are a pair of 16 pound balls missing.

[NormsRevenge]

Exit Stage Left:

at least we know he casts a shadow

He didn't use the word transformation in his speech earlier, he used 'transition' instead.. he was a bit tongue tied as I recall.

US President Barack Obama walks to board Marine One on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, DC. Obama declared Thursday the world was watching history unfold and a moment of transformation in Egypt, as reports said President Hosni Mubarak may be ready to step down. (AFP/Mandel Ngan)

[Red in Blue PA]

What we obviously need is Obama to go and give a speech in Cairo....v. 2.0.

That will solve everything.

[pillut48]

Crowd is shouting "HE MUST GO"...

[treetopsandroofs]

He’s fighting the Hussein spin machine — and winning.
