This was an original post from Sept 16, 2010 / It was originally intended as humor aimed at the Egyptian press and the spin the world leaders put on their adventures...
But this past month, the powers that be didn't find humor in the fact that many people in Egypt, Jordan & the Middle East viewed this page during the people's uprisings. They removed it from Google search results and deleted this site's online storage.
Go figure.... Well, it is an election year in the United States, but don't the powers know we don't support either side.
Was once again re-posted on May 20, 2012; once again attacked... Internet Terrorist... Secret Squirrel Agencies... Mickey Mouse Lover's Association... Mickey Mouse Haters... ??? I don't know. They took the whole site down months later, so I assume they were slow readers. The site is back up for 2014. I am re-connecting this post so those who can't read can at least look at the colorful pictures.
UPDATE: March 21, 2014
Thank you for your comments & suggestions on vacation locations. But I am sure the weather will warm up here in Virginia, and I won't need to accessorize my wardrobe with a pitchfork.
If you are a supporter of President Obama... know that I would have had no problem creating the same POST had a Republican been President when the original photo was taken.
Believe me, the King of Jordan's people didn't care for the way he was portrayed in the image any better. As for Mubarak... well, what can he say now... his people posted Mickey Mouse on Arab Spring Billboards.
I guess I could have posted...
Humorous images of Harry Reed licking Mitch McConnell
cheek, along with John Boehner sucking on Nancy Pelosi's
toes... I really don't want to focus on those images as I gag
when I see or hear all of them in any setting.

Egyptian paper doctors photo of Mubarak and Obama
By Michael Calderon
Al-Ahram, Egypt's state-run newspaper, recently ran the photo above of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak leading President Obama and other world leaders during Middle East peace talks at the White House.
But that's not quite how the walk to the East Room played out. The BBC reports that Al-Ahram apparently had some fun with Photoshop and put the country's leader front and center.
You can see the original Getty photo below.
Egyptian media has long faced government censorship, so it's not surprising the state-run newspaper would put Mubarak front and center. News of the re-cut photo drew a swift rebuke from one of Egypt's leading opposition groups, the 6 April Youth Movement. "This is what the corrupt regime's media has been reduced to," a statement on the group's website said. The state-owned press had "crossed the line from being balanced and honest," the statement continued. But the specific reason for doctoring this photo is unclear, since Al-Ahram did not respond to the BBC's request for comment.

UPDATE: (from additional Internet sources)
This could have turned out worse for all sides if the majority of the enslaved population had seen the original photo.
If the citizens of the World knew that their leaders have always secretly belonged to the same CLUB.
It seems there has always been peace among the world's leaders; they get together in secret whenever possible to dance & sing club songs. The image of discord & wars between them is to mislead the Sheeple of the World, so they could enslave them for the SECRET Club's benefit.
A copy of the secret photo was secured by undercover operatives of the Looney Tunes Gang, said spokesperson Porky Pig in a breaking press release.
"Men profess to be lovers of music, but for the most part they give no evidence in their opinions and lives that they have heard it."

UPDATE: January 31, 2011. If you thought this was all a big joke... It might be. But consider the current events in Egypt and Jordan, along with the photos below. Then, a Senator a few weeks before the 2008 election; now... President Obama does appear pleased to be a new member of the CLUB.
