[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1166372, member: 1246"] As Morsi was being removed from power, the U.S. had to be concerned about what would happen with Egypt, particularly given the Obama administration’s investment in time and treasure (our money) backing President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood. Surely all his senior members, especially the Secretary of State, John Kerry, would have been avidly consulting and weighing options, considering strategy together. Except maybe not so much.

She shouted “Morsi,” but got no response from the secretary of state. But the State Department said Kerry was not aboard a boat on Wednesday and has spent the day working the phones on Egypt.[B] “Since his plane touched down in Washington at 4 a.m., Secretary Kerry was working all day and on the phone dealing with the crisis in Egypt,” spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.[/B] “He participated in the White House meeting with the president by secure phone and was and is in non-stop contact with foreign leaders, and his senior team in Washington and Cairo.

On the other other hand, he was working all day. And he called into an important meeting at the White House rather than attend in person. If you’re confused, you’re not the only one.
