Time to put this lemon of a caption contest to bed. It was extended one week but that was still not enough time to interest you, dear readers. Have you no regard for the law? Winners are below the fold, which includes ineligibles!
The other big news item this week last week is that Attorney General Eric Holder was found in contempt of Congress for withholding information subject to a lawful subpoena. The historic vote in the House of Representatives marks the first time in our nation’s history that an AG was found in contempt. The reason this case is so unique is that prior administration’s have taken care to appoint independently-minded legal minds have the respect of Congress and confidence of the American people. So much for the most transparent administration in history, but what does one expect from a Chicago-style political racket run by a sugar daddy president?
Caption this Photo!
This photo is of the beleaguered Attorney General with his chief nemesis, the Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Darrell Issa. Eric Holder is in contempt of Congress because the brave government watchdog will just not take no for an answer.
It’s Friday which means it is time again for the weekly photo caption contest. Caption this photo and you just might be the lucky winner to be announced on Monday.

Congrats to the winners.
I couldn’t enter this caption contest because everytime I looked at the photo—All I saw was Pardon Me Marc Rich and Holder’s left carotid artery.
The photo of Billy Ray holding the white-american? baby should be considered for the next caption contest.
The look on the baby’s face is priceless.
Is that you DUM-BO?

Thanks, McCain. Now if I can convince my wife to throw away some of her Hummels so I have a fitting place for the trophy. Kudos to AOK and Andy. Once again, the Bayou State beats those Yankees.
Now if I could just read these CAPTCHA Code things without assistance.
