[lbo-talk] Egyptian ref passing passing with close to 100% support

[Gar Lipow]

Of course that nearly 100% support might have something to do with the fact
that anyone campaigning for a "no" vote was arrested. And slogans like "You
will be judged on your vote" by supporters.  And that the military controls
the  vote count. So maybe all the lbo talk about how strongly the Egyptian
people love the military is true. Or maybe, just maybe such a blatant
rigging of the election is needed because the military is not as confident
as some posters on lbo talk are the people love them all that much.
