Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


A Tea Party delegation consisting of Michele Bachmann, Louie Gohmert, and Steve King visited Egypt over the weekend to praise the Egyptian military. They demonstrated their ignorance and embarrassed the United States for all the Middle East to see.

During a press conference on Saturday, Michele Bachmann took the podium flanked by King and Gohmert and promised that America would continue to supply Egypt with the weapons and machinery of war, gave kudos to the Egyptian military for overthrowing their own legally elected government, and blamed the Muslim Brotherhood for the September 11th terrorist attacks that brought down the World Trade Center and took out a piece of the Pentagon in 2001!



Quote:

“Together, we’ve gone through suffering. Together, the United States and Egypt, have dealt with the same enemy,” Bachmann claimed. “It’s a common enemy, and it’s an enemy called terrorism. We want to make sure that you have the Apache helicopters, the F-16s, the equipment that you have so bravely used to capture terrorists and to take care of this menace that’s on your border,” she continued. “Many of you have asked, do we understand who the enemy is? We can speak for ourselves. We do. We have seen the threat that the Muslim Brotherhood has posed here for the people in Egypt. We have seen the threat that the Muslim Brotherhood has posed around the world. We stand against this great evil. We are not for them. We remember who caused 9/11 in America. We remember who it was that killed 3,000 brave Americans. We have not forgotten.”


Do these yahoos even REMEMBER 9/11?? Do they remember the 9/11 Commission? That it was Osama bin Laden and al-qaeda that orchestrated and carried out the attacks? That Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, who was a top Muslim Brotherhood leader at the time of the attacks, called them “a wrong act which we denounce regardless of its doer”? That the Muslim Brotherhood even “strongly condemned” the attacks?

Then Gohmert praised Egyptian coup-leader General Abdel Fatah el-Sissi by comparing him to U.S. President George Washington:
Quote:

“We met with for a long meeting General el-Sissi and many of the military leaders, and my friend Steve King mentioned again about our heritage in America,” he explained. “George Washington, doing what no one had ever done before him, led a military in revolution, won the revolution, and then resigned and went home. And we met, in General el-Sissi, a man who is leader of the military, who might have a shot at being elected president, but is more concerned about giving his life to help his country, Egypt,” Gohmert said.

These idiots take embarrassing our country to new heights...
