The Poll is called "Are the Egyptians going to Ceausescu (execute) Mubarak?"
What went wrong? Neither makes an awful lot of sense  |
They both make sense. "Ceausescu" is being used as a verb. The phrasing of the title is just a shorter way of saying, "Are the Egyptians going to do to Mubarak what the Romanians did to Ceauşescu?" Vanilla added the word "execute" into the poll to help explain the meaning to people who didn't get it.
