What U.S. Politicians Can Learn from Egypt

I am curious to know, though, why I never read an unkind word in the media, about President Reagan, when he never attended a Boy Scout Jamboree in all eight of his years as President?

I commend you for your consulting work and better yet for the opportunity you provided from your experience so that others can learn of a greater democracy. It's nice to know as you watch Egypt's new government expand, that you somehow touched a part of this process.
This would be good to see duplicated in U.S. politics. Seems are system is more consumed with re-elections than actual solving the problems. What a cycle of abuse...

Hey Peter, you say you read these comments. Here is you bud obuma at his BEST:
Enjoy the video...
“Every US president since William Howard Taft has served as the honorary president of the Boys Scouts of America. President Obama accepted his role as honorary president in March of last year. So as you know, when the 100th anniversary of the Boys Scouts came along late last month, Obama decided to… go on The View instead. Hey, when you’re down 14 points with women, an American institution like the Boy Scouts will just have to wait."
“However, Obama did record a message that was broadcast to the ,000 Boy Scouts in attendance at the National Jamboree in Virginia.”

As I recall, obuma passed on a military function Presidents attend too WHEN FIRST in office.
Kick your priorites straight PRESIDENT...

What poll, State or National, is Ron P. doing well in ?
Have you ever answered what has Ron P. accomplished in DC. ?
Suppose “shills” are non-Paul supporters...

BEST WAY TO MAKE A **REPUBLIC** WORK IS...
for us non-politicians to keep sweeping the card-carrying democrats and republicans to the curb. Along with their lefty/righty shills.
Then with less federal mega-debt and foreign mega-shenanigans to contend with, we'll better handle democracy at the local and state levels.
Good to see lefty dem shill PFenn drumming up business outside the US. He'll have somewhere to go.
Ron Paul, 2012.

Liberalism will go over big in Egypt. Start off with equality for women & gays.
Seriously, I doubt it will end up well for your efforts. Too much agenda not related to their culture.
Nov. 2, 2010 was _no_ vote to liberalism. Voters believed the hype and elected obuma. Reality resulted...

Peter Fenn . . . exporting America's brand of progressive, liberalism. Islamic socialism! Carl Marx would be so proud. I'll start and help coin a new greating . . . "Comrade Brother in Alla"
