So a coup here would give us President John Roberts? What good is that?
I wonder if used that word (as opposed to "democratic system") deliberately? I wonder if he knows the difference? I wonder if he will try to give Egypt a republic, as America once was?
John Roberts?
Not necessarily. I believe the Constitution gives the line of succession should the President go away.
But by military coup, I really doubt if they’d want a lefty of any sorts (including RINO’s) in charge. Probably someone born in the US for starters, someone who loves, not hates America, and someone that respects the Constitution.
Can anyone out there guess who has the respect of honest Americans out there that might be selected interim President if a coup happened here?
I'm sure Obama would much rather have him in a full beard, headscarf and a koran...
That’s what Brney Frank would look like if he was straight.
I’d still hold-off on the vacay to Egypt. They have interesting times ahead.
isn’t there someone from Obama’s past named Mansour? Related maybe? Just a-wondering cause ya-neva-know...
wonder how he got the job?
I strongly believe a coup could never happen in the US. Why? The average American has too much to lose. Revolutions generally happen in places where the people either have nothing much to lose or very much to gain, and middle-America (which would have to participate for any chance of success) simply has too much to lose. Even with things not being as good for the average American as they could be, things are not so bad that they are willing to support such an act. Impossibility level is exceedingly high. It would be literally easier for Zambia to fund a mission to Mars.
Now to apply for our 1.8 billion refund....
Mansour said: "I swear by God to uphold the Republican system and respect the constitution and law.
God -- not Allah?
Republican -- not small R republican (ok, an interesting editorial decision by Al Jazeera - unless it was also a written statement)
the Constitution -- which one? the MB bastardization or the original one?
We do not want a refund of the aid.
It was provided to an ally that is now resurgent.
If you think the recent counter revolutionary events were not expected you are being fooled
You should keep in mind that even though the Brotherhood instituted or tried to institute a radical islamic state, it never harmed Israel or made actual threatening moves
Absolutely. Very dangerous days ahead.
Just imagine people that have been there for days already, in the heat, with little water, food or sanitation. Has all the ingredients.
Sounds like a powerful impetus driving this change of regime. Trying to think of any where else that might apply where the regime in power is thinking ahead as to how to permanently concentrate power in the hands of their party... doing things to ensure this, such as changing the electorate, for example.
Has ANYONE seen reports of the anti-0bama hatred in Egypt? I haven’t heard any mention of them even on Fox.
democratically elected with 24% of the vote...........and after Mubarak was illegally thrown out................uh, see any issues there?
He probably knows the difference
sheesh my childhood pediatrician was named Mansour, he was an escaped Christian Jordanian, great guy
Simple answer: “YOUR GUY’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!”
