Caption contest: Obama on Groundhog Day

This morning we received an email from a reader named Julie (Yarn Czar), who wrote:

"The dear leader is visiting State College, PA on February 2nd. Since this is in close proximity to Punxsutawney and the home of Punxsutawney Phil, one wonders what would happen if Phil sees O upon coming out of his hole?"

This is our interpretation. You can create your own, or suggest a different caption:



Obama: "Tell me Phil, will there be six more years of media adoration? Will the stock market recover and put the stupid capitalist economy back on track? Also, how long until the Progressive World of Next Tuesday?"
 

Punxsutawney Phil: "I don't see Obama's shadow."
 

Comrades,

He has more "state of the art" equipment than this. Coin flips, dart boards, Wheels of Fortune, Jeopardy style answer and question boards, hoardes of "yes men", lots of computer models, some clothed, male and/or female models. Fresh flowers to pull petals from, and an array of games, gadgets, and gizmos toys to use.
 

Phil: How come I do all the work but you and Al Gore make all the money????
 

Hey Phil, don't lock the door on your hole, I may be following you down.
 

What's the difference between Obama and a groundhog?

One is a smelly varmint and the other has fur.

When they find themselves in a hole, one never stops digging and the other lives there.

One makes his living by scavenging and scamming other animals and the other has a tail.

One is full of s**t and the other s**ts when he's full.

One is a rodent and the other is a rat.


Now, how are they the same?

Neither of them wrote their autobiographies.
 

The so-called "groundhog" is actually one of my covert operatives. He told me that during this photo shoot he wanted to say, "Dude. Get a breath mint. Quick."
 

But is it not of the obviousness?



 

Mrs Al,

So simply obvious, yet so profound! "WTF" should be a required addition to the New Prog Lexicon of Acronyms™ —as prescribed by Dear Leader.
 

Win the Future indeed. I say, win the here and now and the future will take care of itself.

you forgot "Magic 8 Ball," comrade.
 

Comrade Menace,

You are correct! My list is neither comprehensive or exhaustive. Dice, Tarot cards, chrystal balls
and Fortune tellers were not listed.
 

Phil says: "And I should know you from where?"
 

"You know, when I was just a young community organizer in Chicago, I was told Western Pennsylvania was full of Bitter Clingers....but they didn't tell me they had ghetto rats this big!"
 

Phil: Man, I've had to go for a few months now. And that hole is open just enough...
 

Obama: How long until the Progressive World of Next Tuesday?

Phil: Next Tuesday.

I am thinking that is well thought out and well said. But I am still hoping the varmint doesn't bit the fury one.
 

Phil: "Where the f^%& is all that global warming I keep hearing about?"
 

PROLETARIAT PEABODY, HAVE YOU NOT RECIEVED THE UPDATED, REWRITTEN MEMO FROM 2 YEARS AGO?! Someone needs to be fired (except for those Unions!!). It is no longer "global warming" but climate change, which can changed and fit anything & any weather conditions and pre-conditions.

Please rethink your thinking....and etc., etc. Carry on.
 

Frau, now you have failed to get the memo...

The weather is not the climate during those months that have an "r" in their name. The rest of the year any spell of hot weather proves Global Climate Change.

Got that? Good!
 

Dear Fraulein,

I was merely quoting comrade Phil. Still, you are correct, and I denounce myself for ignoring the global cooling global warming Gore-bull warbling climate change memo even if what I spoke is the Truth.

PPeabody
 

Comrade Whoopie, what an astounding comment of pure prog perceptibility you have stumbled over. But what do we do with all those months with missing "r's" and how do we now spell them?l November? Oktobr?

Proletariat Peabody, I understand your dilemma. One must be most cautious in who one quotes. Some of us are more quotable than others... we just haven't figured out yet, who those people are.
 

" Get your hands off me you damned dirty ape!!!"
 

Our Leader: "I am looking into his eyes and thinking, 'Here is someone I can do business with.' (Quick, check the hole; no, not THAT hole, bourgeois!)"
