Cairo Protests

Read this post by The Egyptian Sandmonkey. Now. This is the part of the post where I usually would post some sort of quote to give you a taste of what the post says, but that's rather impossible in this case. It's about a protest to the constitutional referendums that Mubarak is currently pushing through.

While we're on the topic, it turns out that barely any Egyptians "voted" in the "referendum" on the "amendments." Sorry, it's just so hard to write that sentence pretending that any of those words were being used in their proper sense. AP reports that a "trickle" of people showed up at the polling stations. Well gee, it's almost as if they think the whole thing is not worth their time. They've redefined "one person, one vote," in Egypt. It means that one person has the only vote.
