The husband (whom I call AbuS, father of the Squeakster online, working on getting him to accept it in real life), is originally from egypt (although he's now an american citizen), so he often watches middle east news programs (enough parenthesis for one sentence eh?). The incompetence of egypt's government is a frequent topic of debate on these shows, and an increadible source of frustration for AbuS. A few weeks back, he got so frustrated that he just threw up his hands and said:

Our cat would make a better president of Egypt than Mubarak



So now Squeaky is El Presidente (which is of course spanish and not arabic, but seeing as how El Presidente sounds cool and is understandable to your average american, and the arabic word for president is not, I chose to use spanish).

Trapped in the catroom! ;o)
That is tooo hilarious!!! Sometimes I have to think that cats would be better off ruling the world than people would! Atleast their way of thinking is pretty straight forwards and in their own way normal!

Heh, he is actually a she. I didn't know how to genderize the spanish, and El Presidente just sounded cool. But a friend has set me straight, and she may now be addressed as Su Excelencia Senora Presidente
