Winners
First: FreakyBoy – At a North Pole press conference, Santa and his supporters come out on the offensive against his Democratic detractors. Santa adamantly defended as “perfectly legal” his use of unauthorized wiretaps to find out if children have been naughty or nice. He then accused the Democrats of using the issue to further their efforts to remove Christmas from the holiday season. Santa went on to say: “You have to understand, if Santa isn’t allowed to find out who’s naughty or nice, then the evildoers won’t receive the coal and sticks they deserve, and this endangers the security of Christmas for everyone”
Second: LorgSkyegon – WHAT THEY ARE THINKING
Santa: Mrs. Claus will never find out about me and the elf.
Elf: Santa won’t ever find out about me and Mrs. Claus.
Rudolph: Santa won’t ever find out about me and these teddy bears.
Third:(tie) The Man – Andrew Sullivan awoke and found all of his wishes had come true… minus the hot asian chick of course.
Third:(tie) yetanotherjohn – Well that certainly put the Christ back in Christmas.
Honorable Mention:
charles austin – If Bob asks me if I’ve ever been to Lapland again, I’m gonna belt him–glasses or not.
DaveD – The Mail-Order Brides for Elves Program was perceived by Santa as meeting the needs of a significant portion of his work force temporarily layed-off in the post-Christmas season
Hoodlumman – Rudolph had a hard time adjusting when he met Santa’s newest flame after the divorce.
Mythilt – “HoHoHo… wanna play with my toys little girl?”
FreakyBoy – Slouching Belly of Jelly, Hidden Yule Log.
Kevin R. Siekierski – Santa and Rudolph were excited by the prospects of working with the new Vixen.
Found the Frequency Award
Dan Rather – I leave my aluminum foil hat off for five whole freakin’ minutes . . . and what happens? You guys monitor my thoughts and fantasies. It’s my business and no one elses. You people make it look like there is something wrong with an Asian hooker and a guy dressed up as Santa, and one as Rudolph.
Rodney’s Bottom of The Barrel
Queer Eye for the Elf Guy.
Don’t Dream It, Be It.
The 
Thursday contest is showing that Christmas Spirit.
Ho. Ho. Ho. (never thought a longish caption could place first).
Merry Christmas to all at OTB, Rodney and my fellow captioneers.
The longer they are the harder it is to keep them on track, but this one did a good job, plus it was excellent timing for the political reference.
