2. haha i'm watching this on ABC right now even though they started the hour with soap opera

the regularly scheduled program was apparently a rerun of All My Children from 2005 with the wedding of Erica Kane and Jackson Montgomery...I almost thought that ABC and the networks were not going to show Obama's statement given they didn't start out the hour with the special reports. So I decided to watch CNN online, but I turned my TV back on and noticed that the networks went to special reports. Thanks for the link too for those without television.

6. "something in our souls cries out for freedom, and forevermore it will remind us of the Egyptians"

OBAMA: "Egypt will never be the same"

"spirit of unity have defined these last few weeks"

"Egyptian military will have to ensure" a transition of this change that is irreversible

"United States will continue to be a friend and a partner to Egypt"

"allow extraordinary potential of this generation to take flight"

"The wheel of history turned at a blinding pace" as Egyptians demanded their universal rights.

"We saw a military that would not fire bullets at those they are sworn to protect"

"We can be defined by thew common humanity that we share"

"Egyptians have inspired us" ... "moral force of non-violence ... bent the arc of history towards justice once more"

"Today belongs to the people of Egypt" ... "something in our souls cries out for freedom, and forevermore it will remind us of the Egyptians"
