OK, so which of Obie's thugs floated the rumor Mubarak was gone?

That would have been Katie Curva.

I've seen it somewhere that Leon Panetta was behind that particular bit of wishful thinking. Maybe odumbo thought if the rumor got legs it would force Mubarek's hand.

Folks seem to forget that the REAL thugs in Egypt arre the brothers...they assasinated Anwar Sadat, gave birth to Al-Queda and formed and nurtured Muhamed Atta. Mubarek has been putting those pigs down for 30 years...he's not an easy man to intimidate.
