Sarah Palin Blasts Obama's Handling Of Egypt

WASHINGTON — Sarah Palin says the Obama administration must tell Americans what it knows about who will be Egypt's next leader.

In a Christian Broadcasting Network interview released Saturday, the 2008 vice presidential candidate says the administration should level with the American people on what it knows about the Egyptian crisis.

Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak wants to rule until September elections.

Palin said the U.S. must find out who is "behind all the turmoil" and that "we should not stand" for a government led by the Muslim Brotherhood.

Referencing a 2008 campaign ad, Palin said Egypt was the White House's "3 a.m. phone call" but it "went right to the answering machine."

She says the U.S. must say whom it stands with, "and we do not have all that information yet."

Government of the people by the people, and the Alaskan one opposed.

Given her record, we should be surprised!

Oh, they have just shown Egyptians dancing round their flag.

It is interesting to see a Leader, supported by a One Party system, and back by the Ultra Rich being taken down... then there is George W. Bush.

You just knew that the Republican Extremists would have an opinion on th WH handling of Egypt. Maybe they would like the US to install another Shah?

This is just SP keeping in the spotlight. The media (especially HuffPost) is obsessed with this woman so she knows she can say anything and it will get reported.

When she was running for VP, she couldn't have fount Egypt on a map. The people who prepared her for her debates were astounded to learn she thought the Continent of Africa was one big country.

Sarah probably has no idea where Egypt is or what is happening there.
At on time her idiocy was funny. Now it is frightening.

Any sentence with "Palin" and "Egypt" in it is bound to be funny...or ignorant ...or both. Her idiocy is wearing thin, even with her "base."

When, oh when, are the right-wingers going to realize that it is not the job or place of the United States to dictate policy to the rest of the world? As fast as our society is falling behind in math and science, we have ZERO credibility to tell anyone else how to run their country.

Wow, I got that wrong. But does crossing a nearby border for medical care and then coming back qualify her to speak competently to foreign affairs? I'm still gonna say "pthooey!"

Don't pick on SP. She's just pointing out an oversight of BO. Clearly, he didn't get the memo. He is supposed to consult with her on all points relevant to the American people. '

She admittedly doesn't have the information, yet she feels qualified, entitled, and compelled to have and share a worthless opinion.

If only the POTUS had speed dialed her with all he knows so that it would be easier to wax poetic, the world would be a better place. Because we all know what a seeker of fact and knowledge she is.
