This could be shaping up to be a bad week for the President. Sorry if I am having trouble working up a tear.
While the nation eagerly awaits the Supreme Court's decision on Obama Care, the Court ruled today that a portion of the Arizona Immigration law, the part that says police can inquire about someone's immigration status during a traffic stop if they feel there is a reason to will be upheld. A victory, albeit small, for legal immigration. But that is just the beginning. Attorney General Eric Holder will more than likely be held in contempt of Congress over the debacle known as Fast and Furious. Someone posted a great question on the internet the other day. The mainstream media could not get enough interviews with Trayvon Martin's mother, but we have heard very little from Josephine Terry, the mother of slain Border Agent Brian Terry.
Things that make you go hmmm.....
But let's start with the victory in Egypt's Presidential Election by the Muslim Brotherhood. Mohammed Morsi won with 51% of the vote over Hosni Mubarak's last Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq who garnered 48.3% of the vote. People like Glenn Beck and Rep. Allen West (R-FL) have been warning for at least a year that this could become a reality. They were called "alarmists" and "loose cannons" for their troubles. But if Beck and West, guys who have no inside intelligence knowledge could easily predict this, how could the President not see it coming? The answer, at this point, is that he must have known. The United States is into Egypt to the tune of $1.5 billion dollars a year in foreign aid, and there is credible proof that people with very close ties to the Muslim Brotherhood are frequent and welcomed White House guests. Are we to assume that any Military and/or Intelligence personnel on the ground were summarily ignored? If the track record for this administration has proven anything at all, it would be that anything is possible.
Many in Egypt are very concerned, and rightly so, that the new President will institute a strict Islamic State, complete with Sharia law, and the vigorous enforcement thereof. Also in question is the safety of Egypt's Coptic Christians who make up roughly 10% of the population. Is this the "Arab Spring" that the Obama administration jumped up and down about last February?
The re-election of Barack Obama, or not, could hinge on many of this week's events. Maybe whoever is in charge of throwing those swanky White House parties can book an old-fashioned beer summit for the President. It looks like he is going to need one.
