  37. These Angry Left talking points disguised as caption contest entries are just freakin’ hilarious, though, as noted previously, not for the reasons they imagine. They remind me of the Reverend Jesse Jackson hosting the faux game show “The Question is Moot” on Saturday Night Live back in 1984 (Orwellinan shudder). Incidentally, this isn’t a caption contest entry, just an observation.
