(Reuters) - The White House announced plans on Monday to help "Arab Spring" countries swept by revolutions with more than $800 million in economic aid, while maintaining U.S. military aid to Egypt.

In his annual budget message to Congress, President Barack Obama asked that military aid to Egypt be kept at the level of recent years -- $1.3 billion -- despite a crisis triggered by an Egyptian probe targeting American democracy activists.

This is the kind of stuff that drives me up the wall. We're cutting our own military down to bare bones because we supposedly can't afford to maintain it at present levels. We just spent billions to destablilize the middle east by helping to bring on the (give me a break) Arab Spring. So now, Obama wants to make sure the Muslim Brotherhood gets their yearly 1.3 billion dollar shot in the arm courtesy of, you guess it, YOU, and while we're at it lets give another 800 million to the murderous thugs who have managed to plunge the whole region into chaos. Brilliant!
