The Hypocrisy of President Barack Hussein Obama - Egyptian vs American Protests
Hundreds of thousands of protesters in Egypt take to the streets demanding change from what they perceive to be an unresponsive government. United States President, Barack Hussein Obama is so moved that he calls the President of Egypt urging Mr. Mubarak to step down from his office, perhaps immediately.
He then steps to his powerful presidential podium and speaks to the protesters in Egypt saying President Hosni Mubarak must begin a transition immediately toward a new government, and assured protesters "we hear your voices".
He continued on to say, "To the people of Egypt, especially the young ones, I want to be clear: we hear your voices. I have an unyielding belief that you will seize your own destiny."
How arrogant is it that this president thinks he can simply inject himself into the political debate of the sovereign nation of Egypt?
Think back now to the summer of 2009 when hundreds of thousands of protesters took to the streets of Washington DC and cities all across this nation to protest the Obama Healthcare Bill that was passed anyway, against the will of the majority of the American people.
Did President Obama take to his all powerful, all seeing, presidential podium and say, "we hear your voices"? No, he didn't. Did he say "You will seize your own destiny"? No, he didn't. Did he get on the phone and call Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid and advise them that they make an immediate change in course? No, he didn't.
In fact, the White House unbelievably declared that it wasn't even aware of the protest rally that received nationwide coverage in advance of the rally. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said, "I don't know who the group is."
Imagine if President Mubarak, or the leader of any other country had gone on international television and told the Tea Party protesters, "We hear your voice" and called on President Obama to step aside as President of the United States?
What is wrong with this man, that he is so willing to listen to the will of the people; but only when it is the will of people outside of his own nation? What level of self-importance must he have to believe that the people of Egypt will actually stop their protests because "we hear your voices"? And what level of hypocrisy is it that he can respond to the protesters of Egypt and completely ignore even larger protests from American citizens?
Mr. President, I advise you learn to listen to the people of this country. You know, the ones who actually pay your salary. Perhaps we should demand that you step down immediately, like you are demanding of the President of Egypt.
Listen to US Mr. President. It is our nation you swore to defend.

Look at ANY poll and they all show that the MAJORITY do not want Obama's healthcare law - which is not at all about health care but about taking over 1/6th of the economy and the government/bureaucrats telling us how to live. What planet have you been living on? There are people who seem to think that the government providing them healthcare is a right - IT IS NOT a right. People should be responsible for themselves. Tell me Finchy - how long to you think your "free speech" will continue to be a freedom if Obama stays in office? His czars are already trying to limit your rights on the Internet and are trying to find ways to further regulate guncontrol. You don't think that "rigged" elections happen here? You are fooling yourself. How do you think Harry Reid got reelected? How do you think the 2012 elections will go? If Obama gets reelected it will be because the unions used every dirty trick in the corrupt book to pad the votes. It simply amazes me that there are people who think like you do - you know - unrealistically and blindly. Exactly the type of person who Obama panders to. The uneducated, minorities, illegals, deadbeats and the young and impressionable and those who want government handouts. Why don't you start paying attention to the Obama-bashers - you might learn something.
