Kudos to Human Rights Watch for having issued a strong statement criticizing the Egyptian government’s continuing mass round-up of opposition activists and would-be candidates. This campaign, HRW said, “puts the legitimacy of upcoming local and municipal council elections in serious doubt.”
It is an excellent statement. Go read it.
Condi Rice is currently in the Middle East. She should be peppered with questions as to why strong US aid to Egypt continues under these circumstances.

I don’t know how I should properly think of Condi Rice.
1) She’s very well-taught, on a certain ‘triumphal’ period of US ‘history’ – 1945 > on.
2) She’s carried this ‘experience’ on into government, and has succeeded, because she appears ‘bright’ and is also sexually attractive.
(No bias here Helena – John F Kennedy did exactly the same thing)
3) She’s the ‘nigger’ servant of Cheney, etc. Cheney wishes he didn’t grow up in Wyoming, and that he had an Aunt Jemima to make his breakfast pancakes, with all that big wide black servant smile.
4) There are 250 million Americans, and you’re all democratic, freedom-loving, etc, so why do you allow such sleazy people to run your country (let alone what you do to the rest of us).
