An Important Message From Chad

My newest article is up at Family Security Matters. Hopefully, it will bring teh funny. Here's a preview:

Late last week, rebels launched a coup d’etat against Chadian president Idriss Deby. The country named after a blueblood, milquetoast pretty boy saw its government act like one, as nearly 75% of the administration skipped town when the bullets started flying. Way to answer the call, guys. As of Wednesday, things have seemed to settle down a spell, and President Deby has urged the government to return home.

After a week of fighting, there are many questions left unanswered. The most crucial of these questions, according to President Deby, surrounds the future of the country’s tourism industry.

Surprised? Well, you shouldn’t be. Chad has been Central Africa’s foremost fun-in-the-sun destination for nearly six months. If President Deby’s dreams come to fruition, his country will soon eclipse other tourist havens such as Somalia and the Congo. “Had it not been for the American ‘hanging chad’ incident of 2000, we would have won the contract for ‘Desert Disney World.’ Americans have no idea how much damage those blue hairs in Florida unleashed upon our economy,” Deby stated. “Around here, ‘chad’ is a four-letter word.”

You can read the rest of the hilarity HERE.
