Muslim Brotherhood officials must be confident in their chances in this fall’s Egyptian parliamentary elections. David Miller of Media Line picked up an Egyptian newspaper report citing a member of the Brotherhood’s governing board calling for a squad of virtue police created to act against “those who commit immoral acts.” Issam Durbala’s vision aims to protect public virtue and modesty with “limited authorities,” Miller reports, which means something short of Saudi Arabia’s vice police. [Note: Miller identifies Durbala as a Brotherhood official, other sources place him in the Gama'a Al-Islamiya, or Islamic Group] Moderates and secularists in Egypt are alarmed by the growing influence of religious conservatives in Egypt. They’ll have to scramble to compete in the fall elections against the larger, better organized Brotherhood. Those reformers tried to defeat constitutional amendments that called for elections sooner, rather than later, in hopes of buying time to organize. Those amendments passed by a 3-to-1 margin last month. Hamas, a Brotherhood offshoot, has imposed its own brand of modesty enforcement in Gaza. Girls must adhere to a religious dress code to attend school, and women have been detained for being in public with a man or for smoking in public.

What does the article have to do with Obama?
Obama thew Mubarak under the bus. Dear Leader didn't have to support him, but he didn't have to support the Muslim Brotherhood either. Your boy Barry is clueless, he's doing the same thing in Libya and Yemen.
Of course they are. If they find out you voted against them,they will kill you and your family. That's a pretty effective way to insure you get all the votes. BUT......,they justify it the same way the elitist American left justifies their police state. They say it for your own good.

Why is anybody surprised that Bush 4.0 in continuing the work of Bush 3.0?

The Egyptian Army threw Mubarak under the bus. But I suppose you cheered Tiananmen and other brutish acts of governments putting down popular uprisings.
Calling fake stuff an article is a stretch.
