I know it's late but I have a caption

President Bush: Well hello Mr. Bono. Say, it's too bad about your dad hittng that tree in Lake Tahoe, but I'm glad to see you taking on the family business.

another one . . .

Say Bono, are those rose-colored glasses? Can I borrow them for the next coupla years?

What? Those are the best captions?

I can't believe those are the best captions people came up with. I can think of a few better ones right now off the top of my head. Such as:

-- "I still haven't found the WMDs I'm looking for."

--- "I love your song 'With or Without You.' That's how I feel about Turd Blossom."

-- "Bonoie, you're doing a hell of a job."

That's a start anyway.

uhhhh

...all your favorite entries sucked compared to mine:

"We still haven't found what we're looking for either"

In my obviously humble opinion.

My own caption

Since mine was not mentioned either, here it is:

Bono, tried not to show his shock at the President's statement,

"The first time I heard "I Will Follow" I was stone cold drunk and lying in a pool of my own vomit."

bono's shoes

hey has anyone noticed that Bono is wearing shoes that seem to have two to three inch souls? and he still is shorter than dubya! I didn't know Bono was such a little guy!

Bravo!

Thanks for the Bush/Bono comments, everyone. Can we have this as a regular War Room feature (captioning a photo, especially a surreal one like that)?
