Caption This!
Yes, Monday morning is the wrong time for a caption contest, but some photos are hard to resist.
The original, unbelievable caption to this picture: "Senators John Kerry, left, and John McCain meeting with reporters in 2002 as they discussed automobile mileage standards."
I'd be prepared to believe almost anything other than that. Show the New York Times what you're made of!

So I had that hard earned medal from Nam, or Cambodia or wherever it was, in this hand and I threw it over the White House fence. Can you believe it, John? John? John?

... and that guy in Sudan, Bashir, or whatever, he supports me, and Chirac, he's with me, and Castro and Chavez give me street cred with the Latins, and that freaky dude in North Korea...

Kerry: So, in my secret mission to Cambodia, I saw that little bastard running through the reeds and I actually SAW him lob that grenade that sent some shrapnel into my ass...
McCain [whisper]: Christ, I'm glad those NVA bastards didn't have this asshole interrogating me, I'd have broken in a second...

McCain: *inhales*, *holds it in*. Dude, this some good $hit. Man, good thing I'm high. I'd probably shoot myself otherwise.

Mac, you and I have been good friends for a long time. And, as you know I am supporting Barak Obama for President but if Hillary gets it, I'm with her. So realizing that I need to be ready for that, could you just tell me 5 good things about Hillary?

"Oh man--so she was going to to name him 'Barack McCain?' No shit? Whew, this does explain a lot. Still, I don't recall Lola Falana ever touring with the USO Show in Da Nang. I'm surprised she fell for that 'Wanna see my tailhook, brownsuga?' line...but if she's as dumb as Theresa, I'd've tapped that butt too. Did I tell you they stole that waterskiing thing in Apocalyspe Now from me? I did?"

Far be it for me to correct anyone on lingo, but I thought the expression was "tapped that ass," so that there is more of a rhyme with the common vowel sound.
Also, I think it was surfing and not waterskiing in Apocalypse Now, although it could have been both. I remember Robert Duvall's line, "If I say this beach is safe to surf, it's safe to surf!"
Anyway, how about:
"We'll have you over for dinner next Thursday night -- Theresa's cooking meatloaf. Well, she doesn't actually cook it."

"Well, I have to admit, he uses *bipartisan* dirty tricks!" said Sen. Kerry.

The finalists in the 2002 "Ugly Tie" contest take a break after a long day of competition.
Actually I'm quite impressed with the KSU Purple tie that McCain is wearing :)

Later in the Movie the surfer waterskis on his surfboard behind the boat.

"So McCain told me, "you gotta find yourself a really rich one, John. And I did! His wife is better looking, but mine has just as big a bank account! I've been happy ever since, and I owe it all to McCain"

Where's my regular co-pilot? Who stuck me with this idiot? Where's that damn control? How do you bail out of this thing?

Jeezus, Kerry, I don't need a damned solioquy. All I wanted was the remote! If you don't don't know where it is, just frickin' say so. And who you calling Yorik?"

John McCain demonstrates why he is co-sponsoring legislation with John Kerry to include the "comfy chair" technique as a coercive interrogation techique.
