Awaiting the Fat Lady to Arrive on Stage

They say that is isn’t over til the fat lady sings and we are apparently waiting for her arrival.

The news reports that the military prevented Mubarak from giving a live speech earlier handing power over to Suleiman.  He is now apparently going to give his speech at 8 pm Egypt time.

The Supreme Military Command has issued a statement to the people that all of their legitimate demands have been met.  How that translates is still uncertain.

    Watched it live. I hope it was more coherent in the original Arabic than the translation. Transferring power to the VP? For Crissakes… err… Mohammedsakes, what is his point in hanging on??

    A major disappointment. No telling what will happen overnight.

    Fingers crossed, then.

    Criminal House of Saud and Dr Evil Netanyahu, we’re coming for you next!!

    Viva la revolucion!!!!

    You know I heard someone say recently that revolutions were like buses. You wait for one forever, and then suddenly you’ve got them arriving all over the place!

    (I like explanation points, they make me feel like I’m yelling. lol)

    Yes…up with the revolution! Let’s hope the Muslim Brotherhood are successful and can take Egypt…they will be so much better off. After all…Iran is such a loving place, and Egypt will look like Iran in a year from now. How will you feel then? Happy???

    The “fat lady” sang. Mubarak is gone. The celebrations tonight and the building of a new country starts tomorrow.

    If Hardon hadn’t blocked me from his page (Imagine that!), I would have agreed to some extent with the apparent weirdness of Egyptians frothed into orgasmic delight with the replacement of a civilian dictator with his hand-picked military junta.
