U.S. Ambassador to Egypt: "Muslim Brotherhood's Lackey"

From Middle East Forum: Raymond Ibrahim  "Why do millions of Egyptians, including politicians and activists, consider Anne Patterson, the U.S. ambassador to Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood's "stooge"—as she is so commonly referred to by many in Egypt, from the media down to the street?"
....Last week, for example, El Fagr reported that, during their most recent phone conversation, Patterson demanded that Egypt's recently appointed Supreme Commander of the Egyptian Armed Forces, General Abdul Fatah al-Sisi, release all Muslim Brotherhood members currently being held for questioning: "And when Sisi rejected this order, the American ambassador began threatening him that Egypt will turn into another Syria and live through a civil war, to which Sisi responded violently: 'Neither you nor your country can overcome Egypt and its people.'"
Something tells me the next Republican president will need to make an apology tour of the Near and Middle East with a lot of bowing over the Obama foreign policies. Once again, Obama alienates our friends and serves those who hate us.
