Hillary Clinton continues to slide in her credibility ratings among the youth of the Middle East. The Egypt Youth Revolution refused to meet with her in Cairo, reflecting the disdain for her expressed on the twittersphere. Democracy-seeking youth can see through her hypocrisy and the BS and aren’t about to let her get away with it. She’s being pillared on Twitter hard – and well deserved.

Hillary rejected in Cairo by Egyptian Youth Organization:

#Egypt youth refuse to meet Hillary Clinton “due to her negative stance towards the revolution during its inception.” http://bit.ly/hjmKmq

Jokes on press conference:
@ChangeInLibya Halwasa Guy
Watching Aljazeera, someone from New York times just asked Hillary an excellent question:
“Are you taking ages to handle theÂ #Libyan situation just like you did when it came toÂ #Egypt ?”
“Yeah Hillary, are you?”
@LibyaHura Free Libya
Hilary’s response “I will address your question the week after next..”

Tweet by Egyptian Youth Revolution leader:
@Ghonim Wael Ghonim
“Dear Hillary Clinton, thanks to the Internet, we can search for anyone’s quotes within any period of time. Did you ever try this?”

Contrast between Egypt and Libya:
@wheelertweets James Wheeler
“When it came toÂ #Egypt, Hillary made no mention of “chaos”, or “alQaeda” in the “so-called free areas.”

What a disappointment you are, Hillary. That’s me talking, by the way.
