Not for everyone, but I am an admirer of Glenn Greenwald when he launches into these splenetic rants against the world, flavored with irony of the very bitterest sort.  The update is priceless:

UPDATE:  Highlighting several of the points here, The Independent‘s Robert Fisk today discovered that the aforementioned pro-Mubarak official Frank Wisner — hired by the State Department as its Egypt envoy — happens to work at Patton, Boggs, the very well-connected law and lobbyist firm which happens to represent the Egyptian regime and has in the past represented Mubarak himself.  I’m sure there’s some reasonable explanation for the State Department’s conduct here; I can’t wait to find out what it is.

The stunning thing to me is how much it resembles the Roman relationship to Egypt.
