Last week's photo caption winner:

Gayle of Dragon Lady's Den
!!! Congratulations (sorry, Mike):

"I YAM WHAT I YAM!"

It's perfect for McCain who is who he is, and can't help being anything but. Others made the Popeye comparison as well for the former Navy pilot who has a reputation of sticking his finger in the eye of conservatives....."Stickeye the Sailor Man"?

Thanks to Curt for the swell photoshop.

I think I am going to change the format of my weekly "Caption This" contest. I will let the contest stand for a full week. Then include the winning caption with picture with the new caption contest.

The contest is still rigged, of course. I just don't have enough readers/participants to sustain a weekly vote tally as captions come in. So I will simply exercise my extreme partisanly biased expert judgmental opinion on who offers up the bestest captioning.

Caption These (Collectively, or Singly)

01/29/2008 02:13 Thanks to all who participated in this rigged contest. Winners are anonymous, for his captioning all of them with "two famous liberals confer"; and Tom, for his captioning of the first two photos:


I've got your back, Barack. Do whatever you can to set her up, and I'll take care of the rest.



I've got your back, Hill... And here's a coffee to show my sincerity.

Caption This (Special Edition)

Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee (L) talks with actor Chuck Norris during a campaign rally in Des Moines, Iowa, January 1, 2008.


Sorry fellas but I didn't pick a winner for last week's caption contest....I'm revamping, and doing a take on "Chuck Norris facts". You are welcomed to contribute, either a Chuck fact or a Huck fact. Here are ones that I've compiled, many based off of existing ones:

  • Huck to Chuck: "Is it true you are going to sue Fred Thompson, because "Law and Order" are trademarked names for your left and right legs?"
  • Chuck to Huck: "For some, the left testicle is larger than the right one. For myself, each testicle is larger than the other one."
  • Huck: "Did you watch 60 Minutes last night?
  • Chuck: "Sure did! Watched the whole program in under 20 minutes."
  • Chuck to Huck: "Do you know why they didn't find a weapon of mass destruction in Iraq? Because I've never stepped foot over there."
  • Chuck to Huck: "I have to be honest: Your last campaign speech was so boring, I swallowed an entire bottle of sleeping pills...and it actually made me blink."
  • Chuck to Huck: "Did I ever tell you about the time I auditioned for the role of "The Terminator"? James Cameron decided to give the part to Schwarzenegger, telling me that if he had given it to me, they'd be filming a documentary."
  • Huck: "Why is your show called, 'Walker: Texas Ranger'?"
  • Chuck: "Because, unlike you, I refuse to run."
  • Huck to Chuck: "What President Roosevelt actually said, was "There's nothing to fear, but fear itself...and Chuck Norris."
  • Chuck to Huck: "What President Roosevelt actually said, was "There's nothing to fear, but fear itself...and a Huckabee Administration."
  • There are only two kinds of voters: Those who vote for Huck; and those who are killed by Chuck.
  • There is no such thing as a lesbian; just a woman who has never met Chuck Norris.
  • There is no such thing as a RINO; just a Republican who has never met Mike Huckabee.
  • Chuck and Huck agree: There is no such thing as evolution...Just a long list of animals Chuck Norris has allowed to live.
  • Huck: "What was going through Howard Dean's mind when he let out that death-curdling scream?
  • Chuck: "My boot."
  • Huck: "What exactly is a weapon of mass destruction?
  • Chuck: "A Chuck Norris roundhouse kick."
  • Huck: "Is it true that you're hung like a horse?"
  • Chuck: "No; but it's true that horses are hung like me."
  • Huck: "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck Norris?"
  • The only reason Huckabee's campaign has gone this far, is because Chuck Norris kick-started it with a roundhouse.
  • Chuck to Huck: "Did you know that I was born in a round house that I built with my own two hands?"
  • Huck: "Thanks for breathing some life into my campaign."
  • Chuck: "I don't breath! I hold air hostage in my lungs!"
  • Huck: "What if I'm asked in the next debate to explain the 'Theory of Relativity'? What do I say?"
  • Chuck: "Tell them when you get kicked by a Chuck Norris roundhouse, even your relatives will feel it....and that's no theory!"
  • Who can kill the audience quicker? Huck on the bass, or Chuck being a badass?
  • Chuck croons: "These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you....followed by a roundhouse kick!"
  • Huck to Chuck: "Did you have to punch and kick everyone out on the dance floor?"
  • Chuck to Huck: "They were holding up Romney '08 signs."
    Huck to Chuck: "Oh....well, that changes things."
  • Huck didn't win Iowa: Chuck Norris won Iowa. Chuck didn't lose New Hampshire and Michigan: Huck lost New Hampshire and Michigan.
  • Huck to Chuck: "I'm nervous...I have to take a written quiz on Pakistan. What do I do?!"
  • Chuck to Huck: "If it were me taking the quiz, I'd just put "violence" down for each answer."
    Huck to Chuck: "How the hell does that get you an A+?"
    Chuck to Huck: "I'm Chuck Norris. I answer all of my problems with violence."
  • When Chuck Norris wants to see a true conservative, he looks in the mirror. When Mike Huckabee wants to see a true conservative, he looks at Chuck Norris.

Can you guys come up with any?

New ones will be added on here:

  • Huck fact: Huckabee actually does believe in the theory of evolution: in youth, one thinks with his heart, and is liberal; with age, evolves and thinks with his head, and is known as a conservative

Now for Something Different!

Congratulations, Jennifer!




Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, left, and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee shake hands on stage. During Saturday's debate, the two rivals exchanged sharp words, particularly over foreign policy. Romney criticized Huckabee for writing that President Bush's foreign policy has "an arrogant bunker mentality," prompting a feisty Huckabee to accuse Romney of once supporting a timed withdrawal from Iraq.

Better luck next time and oh by the way, nice tie and "ya did too raise taxes".

Even though the Christmas caption contest should technically be over by now, Mike submits a belated caption (top photo) for last week's contest. Congratulations, Mike's America! You see? Fair and balanced, no hanging chads, low participant turnout; easier than winning at an Indian casino.
