Where was the Obama administration regarding the real democracy uprising in Iran? Where was the Obama administration about the persecution of the Copts enabled by the Mubarak regime? Suddenly now he is speaking out on behalf of freedom and democracy for the Egyptian people. But there is no decent, western-style democratic government to be had in Egypt or anywhere in the muslim world. What we have is the choice of the lesser evil. And Mubarak is the lesser evil to the jihadist muslim brotherhood.
Lack of American leadership, the projection of American weakness on the world stage by this president has strengthened the forces of jihad: hezbollah in Lebanon and now the muslim brotherhood in Egypt. Perhaps this is all by design and maybe Obama isn’t really so incompetent after all.

What usually happens after a revolution is a provisional regime until that time when societal forces re-align themselves and the most powerful contender emerges. Should El Baradei become President, he will surely be just a transitional figure.
