When the votes stop counting

I am not a huge fan of the Islamic fundamentalist movement. Far from it. But in Egypt, I have to give them their dew. They were robbed. Their elected officials were deposed.

Democracy suffered a huge blow. Here's why.

A legally elected government was overthrown by the military because they didn’t like the way the president of Egypt was running things. Tough. I didn’t like George Bush, but we don’t over throw the government. Same is true for the right-wing nuts in America and their hatred toward Obama. But in Egypt, the army moved in and established "order."

What the army really did was to take the vote out of the hands of the people. Your ballot does not count. Only our bullets count.

That kind of thinking is not good for democratic rule.  Even if you hate the Islamic movement that was ruling Egypt, you have to give them their due because they were fairly elected by the majority of the people.

It is the dirty side of democracy. Sometimes the bad guys win.  And you have to work through it. In Egypt right now, is a good picture of what happens when radicals from the political extremes are allowed to rule a country. Ciaos.

Look at Egypt good, America. This is what happens when you let a vocal minority like the Tea Party obtain such huge power in your government.

Do we want this in our streets? I think not. We want order and control.
