Clinton Motorcade Pelted with Tomatoes (and Shoes) in Egypt

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: This is why you should always spray your motorcade with non-stick Pam. Tomatoes slide right off with no muss and no fuss! Plus, Pam is low in cholesterol and saturated fats, so protesters can just pick those tomatoes right up off the ground and presto: they’re ready to eat! (Perfect for this worldwide recession!)

And you know, protesters, perhaps throwing tomatoes and other ingredients at visiting dignitaries’ cars will become a fun and exciting communal way to make a zesty chunky marinara sauce! (Just scrape it up off the street and into jars afterwards!)

(Oh, and on another note: Apparently these protesters also threw shoes at Secretary of State Clinton’s motorcade. But the story neglected to tell us what kind of shoes. Were they Jimmy Choo shoes? Maybe it was intended as a tribute and a gift, but they didn’t know how to get them to her except to throw them at her car due to security constraints. Or else maybe the shoes are being thrown by a new generation of Egyptian shoe designers, and they’re hoping Ms. Clinton will wear their new shoes on the world stage and blast them to international design stardom! Hey: you never know!)

Here’s the kickin’ tomato saucy story:


And here’s my original post from before:
