“The neocon brothers-in-arms, Senators John McCain & Lindsey Graham, put out a joint Op-Ed in WaPo this morning. They attempt to pitch ‘Democracy’ to the Egyptian people, who ironically just witnessed their first democratically elected President overthrown in a military coup. I have a different proposal for the Egyptian people, and it’s called Liberty. Now, I realize that the prospects of Liberty breaking out in Egypt are close to zero (after all, we’re struggling immensely with the idea catching on here, in the so-called ‘Land of The Free’). But speaking about Liberty can only help.”
