On Morning Joe, Andrea Mitchell gushes over Mohamed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood leader turned President of Egypt.  Mitchell enthusiastically reports that visiting American business execs found that he sounded "like a Western European leader," and Mitchell claims that "there's a lot of hope about what Morsi represents."  Richard Haass of the Council on Foreign Relations suggests that Morsi is saying one thing to visitors or during his speech at the United Nations, but sending a different message to the Egyptian people back at home.
