In what has to one of the most bizarre coups ever, Morsi steps down as President a week after Jon Stewart on Egyptian television said "If your regime isnt strong enough to handle a joke, then you have no regime." Let that be a lesson anybody not to screw with Jon. Crossfire off the air, CNBC ratings down (Cramer), and Sanchez off CNN. Now, Morsi.
OK major exaggeration here and he had no role in the coup other than influencing Bassem on political comedy. -

"If your regime isn't strong enough to handle a joke, then you have no regime."
To your credit collin-reid, at least you haven't deleted this post in the past 2 years!
