Egyptian Election

Joe,

While I understand Allen West being upset that the Muslim Brotherhood-backed candidate Mohammed Morsi won the Egyptian election, I also know that we go around the world supporting free elections and democracy. I too would be happy if a different candidate had won this election, however, we can't talk out of both sides of our mouth. If we are going to advocate for democratic governments and free elections, we have to accept the results that they produce. We don't have to support the resulting government with out dollars but we do have to respect and support the process otherwise we aren't any better than they are.
