Albrght is too busy still fornicating with the Albanian mafya and trying to hide that. These people choose the priesthood to find a hiding spot for themsevles, damn the others and the mission. Their “illustrious” career and Obamacare exemption matters more.

I have not worked with Anne and I am sure she is a nice person who has been feeding at the public trough all her working life, who has served so many different administrations that she certainly has lost whatever scruples she started with, and Hillary, the bonehead politico in charge, put a woman to be the ambassador to a rabid Muslim country. Nice plan. Just retire on a fat government pension already.

What exactly is your point? Anne Patterson is a career diplomat who represents the official views of the USG. She is not an independent agent. She is responsible for implementing US foreign policy.

Career diplomats serve the President and the USG regardless of who is in the WH. If someone has a deep disagreement with that policy and cannot support it, then they can resign. Some have over our policies in Vietnam or the invasion of Iraq.

I don't lump Patterson and Obama together when it comes to who is to blame for our foreign policy mistakes and bilateral relations with Egypt. Obama is responsible period.

How did the administration facilitate the Muslim Brotherhoods rise to power? I keep hearing this and I would love to see some evidence. I have have seen NONE thus far. I am not talking about “feelings” or “suspicions” that Obama is a Muslim. I mean proof that it was the U.S. that got them elected. I have not seen one single shred of evidence.

At the time obama toppled Mubarak, the MB was the best organized group in Egypt. Time was needed for another secular party to organize but obama insisted that elections be held without delay.

Pro-democracy? What a joke. When celebrities celebrates too early in premature political ejaculation. What a “mission”. No one believes US Obama bull in the world except your kind, taking US taxpayer money and jewish blood in Israel and abroad, while looking good in photo-ops giving it to feed the children of satan in the world.

Tuut tuut, keep stubbornly celebrating like dum whores. It’s fascinating to watch.

Ambassador Anne Patterson is simply the ambassador to Egypt from the American White House branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. She’s been speaking the thoughts and carrying out the directives of Obama, Jarrett and the other members of the Washington DC Muslim Brotherhood.

This has been a setback (hopefully not temporary) to the agenda of the Obamamite Muslims and their Muslim Brotherhood cohorts world-wide.

It would be helpful.

Obviously it’s high time for Obama to break out the big guns - fire this Patterson woman and bring in Dennis Rodman.

Professional bureaucrats, especially ones in the State Department, deserve only scorn.

So sick of hearing about these pukes who’ve spent their entire adult life suckling on the teat of the American taxpayer.

Government should never be a career. Work in the private sector and spend a few years in government service. Then get lost and stay lost.

The TOOL TOLL is asking mesquine rehtorical questions to confuse and cause errors in our metrics. These psyops have very good professionals screwing the metrics. What proof? Ah, now the burden is on us. Ah, now we can get tripped on grammar and accuracy while they lay out the “law”.

Evidence? The Obama Administration authorized 200 M-1 Abrams tanks, dozens of F-111 fighter jets and millions and millions of dollars in cash assistance a year ago to be shipped to Egypt for use by Morsi’s government against Israel. The allocation had originally been approved for shipment to Egypt when Mubarak was still in power, when Egypt was still an ally of the U.S. more or less. So the fum bucks in Washington decided they’d send the weapons and the money anyway after Mubarak had been deposed by the extremists. No matter that Morsi was put in power by the MB and by al Qaida. Is this a wonderful country or what? Is that enough for you? Or do you need MORE? The Egyptian people aren’t stupid. Amerika is backing the terrorists and extremists, and the Egyptian population is furious with us. I don’t blame them one bit.

My point is that if she disagreed with the policy, she would have resigned, or at least asked not to serve in that capacity. She signed on, took the money, she gets the credit and the blame. She obviously has done nothing substantial to ameliorate the disastrous effects of Obama’s policies. The man on the street in Egypt shouldn't ever know her name

You made an excellent point. I would add that the M.B. would have no hesitation to use violence to intimidate voters, or whatever else was needed to gain power. The “liberal democrats”, and other unorganized idealists were more constrained.

The aid went to Egypt as it has for the last 30 years. No change. If Obama filled his entire admin with Muslim Brotherhood it would not be evidence that “we” provided direct support to them in the elections. Sorry, I’m looking for proof. What you provided does not meet the standard.
