A caption contest!

On of many today, I'm sure, what with this little tidbit from Drudge:

THE BOOS THAT ROCKED THE VOTE: KERRY DAUGHTERS RECEIVE RUDE AWAKENING AT MTV AWARDS Sun Aug 29 2004 23:36:31 ET

MTV, ROLLING STONE and the rock and roll establishment -- past and present -- have cast their vote, and their man is John Kerry.

So on Sunday night when John Kerry's daughters were announced to speak at the annual MTV VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS, the MTV youth were expected to welcome his daughter's as pop culture princesses.

Instead, in an era of the unexpected, the daughters of the Democratic candidate were met with cheers -- AND JEERS -- during the live broadcast in Miami.

From the moment Alexandra and Vanessa started speaking, the boos outweighed anything close to cheers, and the reaction turned worse when the daughters asked the VIACOM youth to vote for their father. So shocked by the reaction, the taller of the two daughters tried to 'shhhhhh' her peers to no avail.

So, a contest. Caption this:

I'll start:

"Sshhhhh! Don't tell anybody Daddy is just a stuffed shirt!"

What say you, people? Let's have some fun with this!

"I'LL tell you when to applaud!"

John...have you seen BlameBush's post on Kerry's 12-Steps to Win the Peace? Here's a few lines:

"As President, John Kerry will appoint a Blue Ribbon Commission to investigate the committee looking into forming a bipartisan board of commissioners charged with presenting a 1500 page plan of action for possibly forming another commission concerning whether troops should shout "Ollie Ollie Oxen Free" before engaging the enemy. With a less streamlined, more bureaucratic chain-of-command, Kerry will insure that no trigger-happy jarhead will ever return fire on the enemy without first completing a form B79873-A. In triplicate."

-snip-

"Next to denouncing your own brothers as war criminals and murderers, nothing crushes pride and smothers that pesky troop morale like constantly reminding them of what a lousy job they're doing. As President, John Kerry will continue to ignore our successes while highlighting our failures."

I about fell out of my chair. Its brilliant. I wonder if he is really Dennis Miller or something.

There are serious strategic errors here by the Kerry camp. You can't pitch the MTV generation after months of all Vietnam all the time and get a positive reponse. For some of them Vietnam was their grandfather's war.

Nice caption, Fred! 8^D

But, I take your point. I hadn't thought about it. But you are absolutely correct, for my son, Vietnam is exactly his Grandfather's war. And so was WWII, and Korea, when all grandfathers are accounted for.

Who let all the Toby Keith fans in here?!

Ssshhhh! You're not supposed to boo until the Bush twins are up here!

While the blonde of the Kerry family speaks, the sister attempts to spell out 'Duh!' in sign language for those who couldn't hear what was being said.

Blonde: Like, Oh My Gawd, we have more money than the Hilton's.

Shushher: Like, totally, and I'm one cup size bigger than Paris.

From the crowd: “Hey show your tits like you did in France!”

Kerry: “SSHHHHH… If daddy finds out I will lose my trust fund”

"One time Alex checked Daddy for a pulse, like touching his neck ...you know like on TV."

"And I did feel it ... more than two beats."
