For many months I have been observing the events taking place in the Middle East, mainly as to those in the past year or so. When the uprising took place in Egypt, President Obama said Mubarak has to go. When the uprising took place in Libya, President Obama said Gadaffi has to go, and sent planes to help his ouster. As of now, the Muslim Brotherhood has won control of Egypt, a staunch enemy of Israel. The Muslim Brotherhood will now control Libya in my opinion.
When the uprising took place in Iran and it look like Ahmadinejad might be overthrown, what did the president say? Nothing. Not even a word of support. What has Obama said or done about Assad of Syria and the killing of almost 10,000 of his own people? After saying nothing for months, he finally said, maybe there should be some sanctions.
When will the people awaken to the true Barack Hussein Obama, and take action to see that he is true to his own word and become just a one-term president. I'm ashamed of my own Democratic party who never properly vetted Obama. We do not need a dictator who just bypassed Congress with a touch of amnesty for a certain group for political gain.
