Mubarak has resigned, but he hasn't split the country. No idea what that means, but I'm thinking he's not quite done yet. Governments and financial houses are busily freezing his assets, so that should make it harder for him to fuck with things, at least 'til they get all that sorted out. So anybody who tries to tell me it's all gonna be swell needs to get called a moron.
The Press Poodles are still gushing about Freedom Fever while DumFux News is flacking the threat of The Muslim Brotherhood. Meanwhile, nobody (either in The Kennel or at Fox) has said thing one about any efforts by anybody's diplomatic services - zero, zip, zilch. The only thing I've heard so far is the standard meme about how Obama got caught flat-footed. Are you fucking kidding? Am I really supposed to believe we've spent something like 1/3 of a TRILLION dollars on intel and counter-intel, and anti-terrorism shit - aimed specifically at the middle east and that we got nothing out of it!?! We didn't see any of this as any kind of possibility at all!?!
Anyway, for now it's all a big smiley-face celebration - I'm bettin' a lot of happy protesters are gettin' laid tonite - and tomorrow or Sunday we might start to see if we get any clues as to how the Egyptian military intends to spend its political capital. This ain't anywhere near over. The really dangerous part starts soon.
