You shouldn't be scared. I find if you talk slowly and calmly it can be quite a manageable experience.

An odd sort of post, but I enjoyed it all the same. I’m not sure if the Egyptians really care about democracy more than Westerners do, but it is true that they are more concerned with what their government does because 1.) their governments like to do bad things and 2) general freedoms which are so long established we don’t even consider them here are lacking over there.

For that, Egypt’s opposition need only have looked to Turkey, where massive crowds are forcing the Islamist government of Recep Tayyip Erdogan to back away from its authoritarian excesses while preserving the constitutional order. Or Venezuela, where the democratic opposition, learning from its mistakes, set about to organize and fight elections despite uneven odds. They barely lost the last presidential contest and now stand ready as the Chavista government fails, splits and crumbles on its own.

Shocker alert: The anti-Morsi protests were led by secular leftists and Morsi is a rightwing Islamist.
