Riddle me this –  When was the last time any Presidential administration officially allowed or gave such advanced media notice (full week) of travel to a dangerous nation undergoing upheaval?   Second, who would it benefit if something just happened to the rhino twins?   Lastly, with the first two in mind who is more likely to be a risk to the delegation?    Just sayin’…. eh, prolly nothing.  
And what about ketchup boy.  I thought he was bringing his mighty influence to the region with jobs for jihadists or something… 
WASHINGTON — Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain have been asked by President Barack Obama to travel to Egypt next week to urge the military to move ahead on new elections, the senators said Tuesday.

Egypt has been roiled by deadly protests since President Mohammed Morsi was toppled in a military coup on July 3, developments that have threatened the $1.5 billion in annual U.S. military and economic aid to the Arab world’s most populous country. Responding to reporters’ questions Tuesday about an attempt to cut off the aid, Graham offered up word that Obama has sought the help of the two lawmakers.
“The president asked Sen. McCain and myself to go to Egypt next week, so we’re trying to find a way to get there,” Graham said. “So we can go over and reinforce in a bipartisan fashion the message that we have to move to civilian control, that the military is going to have to, you know, allow the country to have new elections and move toward an inclusive, democratic approach.”
Graham said the two senators were trying to work out the logistics of the trip at the same time Congress was scheduled to begin its summer recess. McCain provided few details on the trip, but he said that he and Graham would try to assist in the reconciliation process in Egypt.
“The place is in turmoil, obviously,” the Arizona senator said. “We have credibility with everybody there, all the different factions there.”  (read more)
