Senate expected to pass resolution calling on Hosni Mubarak to begin transfer of power in Egypt

The Senate is expected to pass a resolution addressing the crisis in Egypt, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, John Kerry (D-Mass.), told reporters Thursday evening.

According to Kerry, the resolution would call on Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak "to begin the process of the transfer of power and create a caretaker effort" of which Mubarak himself could or could not be a part, depending on what the Egyptian people ultimately decide.

"We want them to make that kind of choice and not narrow the options here," Kerry said. "But the key here is to respect people's rights, to end the violence, to provide an opportunity for this transfer, and to begin to pull Egypt out of this chaotic confrontation and begin to embrace the aspirations of the people."

What a outrage.

...and if he stays in power? Diplomatic relations with the country that CONTROLS the Suez are going to be completely f'ed.


Democrats are f'n morons.

Why?  Because Lurch said so?

Methinks they give the MA gigolo too much credit.

I expect his stupid freakazoidal committee may report out such an unwelcome and unhelpful resolution.  Whether the Senate passes it may be another question entirely.
