Egyptian Election Confusion – Obama Leads Vote
CAIRO — Citing the overpowering, evil influence of American pop culture around the world, the head of the Egyptian Election Board, Abu Sphinxter, gave a press conference today explaining how US President Barack Obama ended up as the most popular candidate in the country’s first real democratic vote in their history.
“I’m not sure how his name even got on the ballot,” admitted Sphinxster enigmatically. “If the numbers hold true, there is no doubt he will top the poll, however. Part of the problem is that many believe he is the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood.”
The US State Department was overjoyed with the development, however.
“This gives us an amazing opportunity to make real changes in Mid-East tensions,” crowed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. “The more nations we can get President Obama elected in, the more control we will have over world issues. Too bad Canada just had their federal elections. Barack would have mopped the floor with that Harper guy.”
