Unlike the Israelis, however, we actually pay the Egyptians nearly $1.5 billion a year in military aid -- McCarthy is wrong about that. The U.S does indeed give Israel a couple of billion dollars a year in military foreign aid....mostly for weapons purchase and anti-missile defense systems. fas.org

Nina is exactly right that the appalling statement issued by the Obama State Department, apparently prior to the storming of the U.S. embassy in Cairo today, betrays the president's agenda to impose on Americans sharia speech-suppression standards in blatant violation of the First Amendment. That, however, is far from the most egregious part of today's episode in Egypt. Mitt Romney, God bless him, just let Obama and his minions have it right between the eyes. Hope you all heard it. Of course, the hostile press attacked HIM instead of the treasonous actions of Obama.
