Its really scary what is going on over there, and its very hard for our country to take sides. Egypt has been one of our biggest allies in the Middle East, and its because of Mubarak. However, as a country, we support human rights and democracy, and in theory, then, support the revolution. If the radicals wind up taking over, it will be worse for the Egyptians and for world stability.

This is what's interesting to me, because Egypt has been the only solid thing we could rely on over there, yet our government is smacking him in the face with some of our comments lately. As someone said earlier, it seems like we are playing both sides of the fence.

Default Obama to control the internet in an "emergency.

A controversial bill handing President Obama power over privately owned computer systems during a "national cyberemergency," and prohibiting any review by the court system, will return this year; the bill which emerged from a Senate committee on 15 December 2010, is more restrictive in three respects than the original bill, made public June 2010: The revised version sayis that the federal government's designation of vital Internet or other computer systems "shall not be subject to judicial review"; another addition expanded the definition of critical infrastructure to include "provider of information technology"; a third authorized the submission of "classified" reports on security vulnerabilities

Sounds familiar ... I could have sworn some dictator just did this to silence the people who wanted to speak out against the government ... oh yeah!
