Rep. Gary Ackerman, D-N.Y., chairman of the Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the Middle East and South Asia, called Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's address "a sadistic tease" and predicted that demonstrations could turn violent.
"He just lit the final fuse," Ackerman said in an interview on MSNBC TV. "And now I think the situation is going to verge on the explosive over the next 24 hours."

I’m no fan of Mubarak but shouldn’t the administration be supporting an orderly transition? Their message has been all over the map. This is what we get when we have a cardboard president. Posers don’t make good presidents.

I never thought I would say this but Hilary seems to be the only one Dem with any brains... What has she ever done to convince you of that. Shes an old ugly Stalinist with a gigantic sized ego.
I didn't say that, dude. I'd never ascribe anything but delusional blind ambition to the H-Rod. That being said, by comparison to everyone else in the coup, she's the only one that isn't a moron crackhead Marxist. She's just a moron Marxist.
And I thought State couldn't fall any further than Albright. That sure shows me.
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

ROFLMAO!
And yeah-I guess the 'crackhead' part doesn't fit, a stretch too far as it were...but mostly, I love the ascription (not sure that is a word) to 'delusional blind ambition' and, lol, 'H-Rod'. What a hoot.

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is KING. Hillary only looks smart because of all the other IDIOTS. It's relative but unless I missed something, she has been smart enough to keep her mouth closed. Give credit where it is due, again, unless I missed something she said.

Perhaps someone could send Mubarak a few rolls so he'll get the message.

Boxer just said that they have no idea of what's anything. That was yesterday. That was Feinstein. Boxer normally doesn't have a clue about anything. ;-)

US leftists are supporting a Muslim Brotherhood takeover so fervently you’d think they’re getting discounted memberships.

"He just lit the final fuse," Ackerman said in an interview on MSNBC TV. "And now I think the situation is going to verge on the explosive over the next 24 hours." That's vitriolic. If anything happens in Egypt now, it will be Ackerman's fault for using inciteful rhetoric.

******************************************************
I wish I could do it the GS way ... take every position and zap the bad ones before the open...
I’d probably short the airlines (leap puts) ... they’ll take a hit with reduced loadings and higher costs...
To: Neidermeyer
Yeah, airlines, I forgot how fragile they are. Good call. I mean, put :-)
