11. Right. There isn't a lot Obama can do ... at least not in public
What gets me mad is the criticsm Obama is getting from the right.

The really far-right folks are criticizing Obama for not helping to prop up Mubarak.

They have even accused him of working with the Muslim Brotherhood to set up a new Caliphate. And, hey,that kinda makes sense, given that Obama is (clearly) a Kenyan-born secret Muslim who wants to impose communism/fascism/Naziism on America through universal health care and a conspiracy that somehow involves Bill Ayers, Francis Fox Piven and the Valois Restaurant on S. 53rd St. in Chicago. :crazy:
