New America
This photo (taken by yours truly this past summer) is of a poster for sale in the little town of Honfleur, France.
The poster was displayed on the sidewalk right outside the shop.
Apparently my taking this photo really ticked off the shopkeeper, who ran outside to scream at me in French using not so kind words according to my husband who translated.
But, if I had told her I was taking the photo for a future “world famous” Tatler Photo Caption Contest, I am sure she would have been much more hospitable.
Months have past, then today it dawned on me – this photo was destined to be the subject of the first Post Election Contest. Isn’t this the perfect image to celebrate the reelection of The Dear Leader of the New America?
So today if you are feeling anything like I do, you have my permission to open the emotional flood gates of your heart and write a caption as a cathartic exercise in grief management.
You know the rules, “be nice and stay classy because the media is watching.” (Now perhaps that should be rewritten to read, “be nice and stay classy because the administration is watching.”)
Our winner will receive tons of free PR in a future post which is worth only what you think it is worth.
Finally, I am counting on you all to cheer me up and make me laugh.
But good luck with that.
Big brother is watching you.
Great minds, Roark
Big Brother is watching you. Please indulge in your two minutes of hate.

No.
Not going to participate in this one.
As for “Atelier Laurent Leblanc”, ils peuvent prendre leur bien mérité congé pendus d’un fil électrique, as far as I’m concerned.

This is obviously the image revealed after all of the balloons are burst at the dart throwing booth run by the shyster carnie hustler at the county fair.
(hmmm….not sure “THE Scott” is working for me here, just not the right feel to it….suggestions anyone?)
Scottch. At least it fits MY mood right now.

You all DID succeed in making me laugh. Look for the “Winners Post” on Friday.
The many faces of Barack — yet, he is still a mile wide and an inch deep.
His image is everything.
How does it feel that the two squishes you supported for President got destroyed by Obama? You were posting items all year long about how Romney is the most electable, he would be competitive in states like NH and MI, and he would appeal to independents. You defended his “prevent defense” campaign. Romney except for the two briefs moments ran one of the most insipid GOP campaigns I can remember, Over a billion dollars late Willard looks like is going to receive less votes than McCain in 2008. I can’t wait for the run up to 2016 to see which “most electable” candidate you will be pushing for. Would Chris Cristie be a good first guest?
This is not an appropriate comment for our Photo Caption Contest, BUT I will respond anyway with this question. What Republican could have defeated Obama?
Also what are you talking about when you say I defended his “prevent defense” campaign? I am really clueless.
Many Republicans did not think Romney was necessarily the “optimal” candidate to defeat Obama, Michael, but he is the one who persevered. And Myra is right in her implication that none of the other leading primary candidates could have done any better than Romney and it is likely that all would have done worse.
We need a new crop of candidates. Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio anybody? Are those two gentlemen conservative enough for you Michael?
It is better to look good than to be good — and he looks marvelous.
