A quick’n'dirty one, while I try and think of some decent Egypt cartoons.

Do you realize that if you take the “Mu” off of “Mubarak” and stick a “c” before the “k”, you get Barack? Huh, no goddamn’ wonder President Sparkle Pony spent the past week sitting on his ass going “uhh, b’deah, b’deah, b’deah…”
