Officials in Egypt: SmartPower™ administration is issuing contradictory edicts and we don't know what to do

I think you'll agree that this story in the Washington Post represents the Obama administration in microcosm.

An Egyptian official says his government believes that White House demands for President Hosni Mubarak to step down immediately are in "clear contradiction" with Obama administration calls for an orderly transition to a new government.

...The official spoke on condition of anonymity, saying his government would not allow him to associate his name with the statement... [he] said in the statement: "There is a clear contradiction between an orderly process of transition and the insistence that this process be rushed."

There's only one word for an administration this competent: SmartPower™!
