Vl is right on this one. The U.S. should step back and stay out. We should not support dictators. The people of Egypt have the right to demand better than what they have received from their government. We say that we want democracy in the Middle East and this is an opportunity. Sure it is scary, but so was the American revolution.

If I were to propose a violent uprising in Washington D.C., by the Tea Party, would you also support it?
I was going to ask that too. There are only about 250,000 protesters at most there. If we had a few million Tea Party protesters starting ritos to get Obama out of office, does that mean he should step down and the government should give into them and would you support that too?
Wait a second....Are you comparing whats going on in Egypt to the Tea Bagger protests? Please tell me youre not doing that. How absurd- 250,000 outta 300 million is not a revolt. The tea party demonstrations aren't even 1% of what the anti Viet Nam protests were, and we weren't even close to a revolution then. Try to storm the White House with your 250,000, but you'll have to go through about 250 million of us normal people first, good luck with that. You're not going to get thinking American people to risk their lives and liberty in the streets because they might end up with free healthcare- People revolt when they are starving, not because their leaders want to invest a little more money into a crumbling infrastructure.... lol
