Be sure to read Paula Bolyard’s report here at PJ Media about a little “crust-up” at the White House yesterday.
The controversy began after President Obama “joked” that the White House chef adds an additive illegal ingredient to his pies. This same substance is one that our president is known to have enjoyed in his wayward youth.
Now, because loyal caption contest followers know that the purveyor of these contests has a guaranteed one-way ticket to re-education camp, let’s hasten the voyage with this contest photo from 2008.
Here we see the “real president” and the soon to be inaugurated president inspecting pies at a deli in Chicago.
The caption and photo ran in a Washington Post piece dated December 10, 2010 with the headline:
Obama has not smoked for 9 months; his real weakness is pie, though
This 2008 photo and 2010 headline viewed through the lens of the current controversy ranks among our most contest worthy photos in recent memory. Therefore, it is up to you to give this photo the treatment it truly deserves.
No need to cut back on the crack or the calories for this contest!
