There’s so many ways I can go (horrible disgusting ways), so I’ll just use this as my submission:

“Sign language for ‘Which way to Tehran.’”

Okay kids, this is the signal you give the Taliban when they ask which way we went.

And when your parents ask what it means, tell them it’s Iranian sign language for “Allahu Akbar”.

An American Soldier performing the finger torture on Iraqi childern, as seen on MSNBC.

I don’t have a caption that beats those already suggested but the picture reminds me of a bit of footage from several years back of a soldier standing on the hood of a Humvee teaching the dozen or so local kids American rap. He had them word perfect by the end. No doubt it irritated the anti-war crowd to see him corrupting the kids with low-brow American culture.

I was reminded of a Samo Hung TV episode where he is confronted by a very angery if not physically threatening person. He has a simple thing to say to him just before he whips his arse - “You are an unhappy person.”

Now that the contest is over, ever notice that Joe is about the most clean cut, friendly, responsible looking person you have ever seen? Just maybe the “Troop supporting (not)- military haters” should look at themselves in the mirror - maybe they would see people who are self centered, whining and generally unhappy people (not even under stress) who just want everyone else to feel as crappy as they do?! The problem with them is they are incapable of learning or changing - they simply dont want to.
