Mubarak's 3 episode saga.

There isn't much to say about Mr. Presidents 3 episode saga. As expected it was another one of his glorious let downs. The first 2 episodes where nothing but reminiscence about his old war stories with exagerations of his personal achievments. The entire War of 1973 was truncated into the role (his greatness) played as airforce commander. Emad eldin Adib was a disappointment as well, consistently showering compliments on Mubaraks achievments and persistently asking "What do you think would have happened if another less competent president was in your place?". Like duh! What kind of a question is that?

The last episode was the last straw. When Emad el din asked Mr. President about the deteriorating economic conditions and how common people are facing great hardships putting food on the table and clothes on their children, his answer was something like this : "There's really not much we can do, we hope to do more but we can't" and went on reiterating rediculous reasons why, "We er.. have the growning population and the national debt and the instability of the region (bla, bla, bla)" What??! How about leaving the job to someone who COULD do something. I felt as if he was being asked for charity.

Another thing he said was that he did not support multiple party governing, as Mr.Mubarak put it "they tend to form coalition governments rather than a single solid government", he argues "This definitely would be counter to the interest of the country, because the different parties would be persuing their own interest rather than the collective greater good." My God, as if a quarter of a century his party where not persuing their self interests, with utter disregard for the rest of the country. For those out there who don't know, the presidents NDP hold more than 85% of the seats in parliment and are collectively known to the public as the moafiqoon (aye) bunch. If the government asked them to jump off a cliff, they'd do it in a heart beat. How they get elected into parliment is a different story.

The episode was ended with a rather anti-climactic "I'm not sure if i'm going to run again" with a sly smirk telling he would.

In conclusion : The president realy showed off his senility and incompetence in this one. I think he was way better off without this piece of juvenile propaganda.
