Republicans are having a tough time deciding which is the harder pill to swallow...
They tried to find funny things and pictures about Obama and went insane trying even to find any irony.
Others have thought they had something with the joke about Obama putting "rims" on Air Force One, but that didn't fly. Some thought they had an opening with him liking ladies with beefcake butts, but Michele's being beautiful, brilliant and ripped otherwise tripped that notion up.
We're going to have to settle for jokes about the White House dog. How about, "It's always a security scene when Bo comes inside especially with his friends: When they frisk them and order them to stay in line, the dogs always resist and roll over."
How about, what do you get when you cross a $300 hammer with the DMV ... ... Obama-care
So who is moderating these comments in case someone says poopy or something?

The Caption Contest editors are obviously on a world tour, getting accolades for their sometimes cryptic and not immediately apparent but always brilliant selection of pictures and winning captions!
Any news what happened or what will happen to this section?
Did they fire the moderators? Sent them to Gitmo or a Russian gulag?
HuffPost decided that the readers don't deserve comedy?
Got stuck in line, waiting for an Obama-care annual checkup...
The brains of the two Huffpost Caption Contest Editors have been removed from their skulls and preserved in two commemorative souveniers (thus the stoppage of caption contest editing activity). One has the image of President Obama artfully presented on it, with the USA (United Snakes of Americat). And the other has the image of some russian guy that no one seems to recognize, with a garbled spelling of Pinocchio annotated on it. Rah, Rah, USA, Pinocchio and Huffpost Caption Contest!
HuffPost Customer Complaints Manager, Ivan A Newjob, offers disgruntled contest caption readers a complimentary nesting doll. "These nesting dolls are a metaphor for how a new caption contest will emerge from the old one", says Newjob. Will this offering be enough to retain loyal readers? Stay tuned..... or don't.... nothing to see here.... move along....
Salt and Pepper shakers.
Dr. Evil captures the mojo of Obama and Medvedev and holds it hostage for one THOUSAND rubles!
Q: What happens when you combine communism (dictatorship) with capitalism (freedom of expression)?
A: A Caption Contest at HuffPost. :)
Anderson Cooper 360 has a caption contest...
Thank you. I'll probably check it out. I'm a fan of the one in The New Yorker though. :)
However, this is about the principle. Why did HuffPost eliminate this feature without any notice and closure?
Thanks for the tip. New Yorker contest is good, too. HuffPost says they are just "re-toolin
I FINALLY WIN ONE AND THE CAPTION CONTEST IS CAPUT!?!
And for the Caption Contest proletariate like me it's like being stranded in Moscow before 1989 -- no hope to win anything but just a smile from a Russian dissident turned seller!
Dr. Evil has stolen the mojo from President Obama and President Medvedev and is holding it ransom for one THOUSAND dollars !!!
Inside the Obama doll, the Hillary Clinton doll is pushing to get out.
At least Laura now knows what not to give George for Christmas
Well, we wanted to make a Sara Palin doll. However, she is full of herself there was no room for any dolls on the inside.
