When the BBC referred to Azerbaijan's Ilham Aliyev as the "Pre-Determined President," they weren't kidding around.

Video via Jenny 8 Lee, and credit where it's due: Ryan Tate offered that the "U.S. should license Hello Kitty for some kind of Guantanamo infomercial." Not bad. Who else could benefit from cute, cuddly characters to calm the nerves of a populace about to have their lives dramatically changed by people who want to control the world?
