We told you so .... but the wilful deaf are also wilfully blind to logic and sanity

Wonder why the MSM are not labelling what's happening in Egypt as "the swan song of the Arab spring for Egypt".  Remember how enthusiastic they all were with the bringing down of Mubarak and the raising up of the Muslim Brotherhood ??    Hypocrites .... all of them.
