I must have missed Mubarek shutting down Soros, FSM and that lamplight kicking cow along with his shutting down of THE INTERNET. 

Or maybe he was shutting the internet down because he was afraid of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I suppose that’s conceivable. Silly EVERYONE for thinking it was because of Twitter and Facebook that he was afraid of.

Why does this have to an either/or conversation every time?
