streets of Cairo have remained flooded with protestors ever since Mohamed Morsi issued decrees that temporarily maki him a dictator or as some say, a pharaoh. Morsi pledged to end his decrees as soon as Egypt votes on the constitution drafted by his Muslim Brotherhood and Salafist allies, but that has not slowed down opposition. CNN reports this morning that women flooded into Tahrir Square to protest both Morsi and his Islamist allies, and pledge to remain until Morsi cancels the plebiscite on his draft constitution and his decrees
Expect Morsi to approve the plebiscite today, though, because by tomorrow it will be too late:
If that happens, Egyptians warn the US that we wont like the outcome, reports Richard Engel:
This is also a warning, they claim, of what may happen across the Middle East. The era of the Muslim Brotherhood appears to have arrived. President Obama has hailed the Brotherhoods President Mohammed Morsi as a pragmatist who helped end the Gaza crisis. Egyptians here think the Brotherhood has conned Washington, just like it conned them.
President Obama is supporting a terrorist, a man told me amid chants of Leave! Leave! in Tahrir Square and Down, down with the rule of the Muslim Brotherhoods spiritual leader. Before, it was Down with Mubarak.
Engel appears to agree with them that Morsi conned Obama and the State Department. His report is deeply pessimistic about the future with the Muslim Brotherhood in charge, and quite clearly thinks that the Obama administration doesnt have a clue about it:
Morsi last night apologized for the power grab and said he didnt want the extra authorities, but that they were necessary for the good of the people and to safeguard the revolution. Dictators always say stuff like that.

Like “hope and change” isn’t working out here, it looks like “arab spring” isn’t working out in Egypt. Maybe the union knuckledraggers in Wisconsin should send their “brothahs” in Egypt some more pizza for their “protests”. LOL! Fools and morons.

I was very surprised at the two women who were interviewed, both looked, dressed and acted as though they were very Westernized.
I know they may not be indicative of the majority there but non the less, was still surprised.
Egyptian women are westernized. The Muslim Brotherhood wants to change that. How ironic that Obama supports a government that is waging a real war on women.
