The reason no Conservatives spoke out was that most were in favor of Mubarak, but didn't want anyone to know just how hypocritical and anti- democratic they actually are. Conservatives don't imagine they hold the principles Ron Paul does, they imagine themselves as infallible rulers. If a few (and I do mean few) economic theories gets them there, all the better. -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
