Quick send Egypt more money!!
Send Code Pink to save them!
Wait, shouldn’t the headline be....
“Son of US Transportation Secretary Can’t Travel”?
Ray La Hood’s son! Maybe Egypt won’t let him plug in his VOLT.
Next thing ya know, Obama will be sending in SEAL Team 6, his favorite toys, to rescue these folks.
So you travel to a country, like Egypt. And, they won’t let you leave the country. Does that mean you are under house arrest?

What in hell are they doing in Egypt, jeez.

Hey, let’s have hussein send egypt some aid-—oh wait—he already did.
