History unfolding

Obama made a comment earlier today (which all the news channels covered) that we were about to watch history unfold in Egypt. Here's what we watched ... a president not leave office and then basically tell foreign nations to bugger off. Hmm, so I'm still waiting for that "history to unfold" or maybe the history was that another one country dislikes Obama. I've seen foreign policy screw ups but this is Carter-esque. And no Mr. President, WE don't have to get this right.

From NBC: NBC News' Chuck Todd reports that White House officials say President Barack Obama found Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's speech "extremely dispiriting." After making upbeat remarks earlier in the day at a speech in Michigan, in which he said the world was watching "history unfold," Obama is now expected only to issue a written statement this evening. "We've got to work this carefully," a U.S. official told Todd. "We've got to get this just right."
