TERRIBLE: Egyptian Army Supports Mubarak's Decision To Stay
Hosni Mubarak announced yesterday that he enjoys being a rich dictator and is not interested in resigning so just deal with it , causing widespread grumpiness and serious blue balls throughout Egypt. And today we learn that the Egyptian army supports Mubarak's decision to serve the rest of his term. Weak, weak sauce. Meanwhile, army leaders "continue to call on the pro-democracy movement to stand down," while promising not to "pursue protesters through legal means." (They will pursue/run over protesters with their secret police vans instead.) Is this really the orderly, democratic transition of power that the Egyptian people were promised? [ McClatchy ]

Most historians agree that Robert Gibbs was not as sexual as Dana Perino. [ CNN ]
