(3,076 posts)... but I never felt that Morsi would last for long. Though somewhat genial, he is too rigid in religious beliefs and practice for it to work. Perhaps he was just a caretaker until the situation further sorted out, or the military regained it's bearings, so it appears.

My husband reminded me yesterday it took us till 1789 to elect our first President.. we were all over the place trying to pull ourselves together.. I am sure Egypt will have its ups and downs as it moves forward..
