  1. You’d think an 82-year-old fellow who’s spent the last 30 years toiling away at the same job would thank me for the retirement cruise brochures, but no. Maybe Hosni’s thinking more along the lines of a square-dancing class. (Oh, there’s a mental picture.)

    More seriously… I hope it doesn’t turn out to be “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.” I really, truly hope.

  2. joan,
    No matter who the new boss is, if it’s good for America, it’ll all be credited to George W. Bush.
    And if it doesn’t work out so well, well we all know who’s fault that’ll be – that Super/Kenyan/Muslim/Sociali/Communo/Fascistic/fragilisticexpialidocious Usurper in the White House.

    I’m with you, though. Even if Bush gets credit, I hope it’s not more of the same for the poor people of Eqypt.

  3. You know, it’s a tough job to give up!
    The pay, the perks, the bennies.
    Plus, maybe they don’t have a good Social Security program over there, or they extended it where everyone has to work until 85 to get their payments.
    You know, what the right wants over here.

  4. Hell ya! If he comes to Disney World, I’ll give a guided tour of Makinson Island for $20,000; Jerk chicken/ rice and peas lunch included (Photo op with a ‘gator,and we’ll chase the ferral pigs around for fun!) It is a small world, after all……

  5. Mubarak just agreed to go.
    The Egyptian people won the “bid”.
    Now comes the performance test, best wishes to the Egyptians.

  6. Watch the Neo-cons and the right wingers fight to line up and start to blame Obama.
    Maybe a few of them will get hurt in the scrum.
    Good thing they all have health care, huh?

  7. How great would it have been if Mubarak put on a greasepaint mustache and instead of a final speech, sang that great Groucho Marx song, while doing his crazy-legged dance, “I Must Be Going.”

    (Spaulding) Mubarak
    Hello, I must be going,
    I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going.
    I’m glad I came, but just the same I must be going.
    La La.

    (Our Neo-cons)
    For my sake you must stay.
    If you should go away,
    You’d spoil this party I am throwing.

    Mubarak
    I’ll stay a week or two,
    I’ll stay the summer thru,
    But I am telling you,
    I must be going.

    (Our Neo-cons)
    Before you go,
    Will you oblige us,
    And tell us of your deeds so glowing?

    Mubarak
    I’ll do anything you say,
    In fact I’ll even stay!

    (Our Neo-cons)
    Good!

    (Spaulding)
    But I must be going.

    (All Egyptians)
    GREAT!!!

  8. Looks like Mubarak finally did the right thing…I was beginning to believe he was going to leave office in a body bag by his resistance to stepping down. I hope the people of Egypt get what they are hoping for and don’t end up with some proxy Mubarak regime.
