Most Useless Email of All Time

I swear: this is the full and complete text of an email alert that the State Department just sent me.

Hillary Rodham Clinton

Secretary of State

Remarks With Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Ali Aboul Gheit Before Their Meeting

Treaty Room

Washington, DC

February 12, 2009

SECRETARY CLINTON: I’m very pleased to welcome His Excellency, the foreign minister of Egypt, here today. He’s an old friend, someone whom I am always happy to see, and particularly here in my new position as we will work together.
FOREIGN MINISTER GHEIT: I’m sure that we will work together and we will serve our peoples, our nations, our countries in the best way possible.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you all.

I would have felt deeply misinformed had that information been denied to me.
