After deep thoughts, and careful deliberations between himself and...himself, Husni Mubarak has settled on his favorite choice for president of Egypt. Himself. He asserted that there was no nepotism in the choice, and that the selection was based purely on merit and qualifications. He did admit that he considered his son, but feared that the choice may have smacked of nepotism. This choice, he added, will be seen for what it is: a choice of the best person to lead Egypt. He also added that he will be inviting Arab leaders for a summit meeting next week. He said that he may invite Abu Mus`ab Az-Zarqawi to join the gathering of bloody Arab tyrants.
