(454) DOWN IN PAKISTAN

It has been reported that the President of Pakistan sent Washington a please-help message to prevent a military coup after the Navy Seals killed Osama bin Laden.

Chapter Two: Someone in the know, a Pakistani named Mansoor Ijaz, made a public disclosure of this information. I have no idea exactly how this was supposed to shake out in the world of public opinion, but before this startling tidbit of information could be revealed, it was learned that Mansoor Ijaz had refereed a nude female wrestling match in 2004.

This shocking disclosure completely negated the information that he was providing about the President of Pakistan, if the information meant anything anyway.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Kaddafi loyalists have ignored the fact that Muammar is deceased and have taken back the city that was once Kaddafi’s stronghold. At the same time in Egypt, the people who were rioting for freedom are still rioting for freedom. The problem with the bizarre idea of democracy is that you don’t know what you’re going to get until after the rioting is over, an election is held, and someone with whom you may vehemently disagree is put into power. However, the Egyptian situation is a little stranger. The military is in power and the rioters don’t like that a bit. But that avoids the question of what happens if there is an election and General Doodah gets elected president? Meanwhile, back in Syria, President Obama is promising that the President of Syria’s regime is about to end. This brings me to ask the eternal question, “What next?”

We’re headed toward the Super Bowl where two teams that should not have won are going to face each other in Super Bowl XLVI. Mind numbing turnovers and missed field goals produced this not-so-unusual event. If you examine the political spectrum, turnovers determine the outcome more often than not. Does anybody remember Herman Cain?
