I was just saying this:

Memo to Obama: Cairo Was a Mistake—UPDATE - Page 1 - The Daily Beast:
Obama should have chosen Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, a moderate, pluralistic, wildly successful democratic country whose citizens just last month overwhelming voted for secular and moderate Muslim parties over the country’s more radical Islamist groups. Instead, by choosing Cairo as the backdrop to his speech, Obama has in effect rewarded Egypt’s president for life, Hosni Mubarak, for his bloody, blatantly anti-democratic, and dictatorial rule.
And if not rewarding, he's sending a subtle message to the rest of the Muslims of the world that the US expects them to be ruled by dictators that were helped into power, or remain in power, due to US influence.
