Write Your Own Caption: Dick Cheney’s Eyes Edition

(click image for larger)

This image was posted on the White House website (it is NOT Photoshopped) showing the Veep taking a break from whatever it is vice-presidents do (cherry picking intelligence against Iran, perhaps?) doing some fishing along the Snake River in Idaho.  (I know there’s a joke there too, but I’m not taking it) But the photo editors at PalmBeachPost.com kept looking at the reflection in Cheney’s glasses and wondered if the picture was suitable for family viewing. (h/t miss kitty)

What’s not suitable about that picture?

I don’t get it. What’s the reflection? I can’t make it out.

Is it his reptile claw?

I’m just taken by the fact that he can actually smile.

It’s a fishing pole. Why are you guys getting excited about his knuckles?

It’s his hand in the reflection holding a fishing pole. Nothing to worry about. I seriously doubt that Cheney has the ability to get titillated at titties anymore. Men raise the war flag when they can’t raise anything else up.

Ahh, get your minds out of da gutta, it’s his hand holding a fishing pole.

I still think it looks like a lizard claw.

The reflection is of his hand holding a fishing rod.

Where is the joke and why would it not be suitable for family viewing?
I don’t get it :-/

as long as it’s a fishing pole and not a shot gun we’ll all be safer. hard to kill ur buddy with a fish hook. though he could still poke out an eye or a testicle.

Fishing pole is right, and I completely agree that images of animal abuse are very offensive.

That’s not a smile, it’s an evil sneering deaths-head rictus.
I didn’t see the nekkid lady, but I did see a fishing rod - I guess when Dick isn’t out murdering captive doves he takes in a few hours of fish killing, perhaps from a barrel?
Of course we’ll probably never know what exactly he was doing, since I’m sure it falls under Executive privilege or something.

With all the legitimate, substantial things that could be written about Cheney, you went with this. Think about that the next time it occurs to you that you aren’t being taken as seriously as you’d like.

Cheney fishes there so we know where the river got it’s name. (Nicole wouldn’t take the joke, so I did)

Egads, someone need to introduce this “man” to the invention called the toothbrush.

Now that it’s here and the picture becomes much larger on this site, it is easy to see that it’s a hand holding a {fishing} pole. But I coulda sworn it was nekkid wimmin…he was ‘fly’ fishing, after all…

i’m sure it’s just gas. it only looks like he’s smiling. unless he just shot someone in the face, in which case it is a genuine smile.

You know, and I was so worried about how you felt about my credibility. boo hoo
It’s a Write Your Own Caption thread. Don’t like it, move the hell on. John and I have been putting in killer hours trying to get videos up and work on the upgrade to the site. Sue me if we wanted some light filler. Or better yet, why don’t you give me your work address and I’ll let you know every time I don’t think your work is up to snuff?

Actually, not so much. There hasn’t been a month that’s gone by that I haven’t had someone forward this picture to me, thinking it should be on the site. The way the photo enlarges on this site takes some of the humor away from it, but clearly the Palm Beach Post thought it looked like a woman.

OK - he’s holding a fishing pole, and it looks to me like he’s near the side of the boat.

I hate the man to the core of my being, but I don’t know what the fuss is about about. Is this a sort of Rorschach Test? Some see a woman on a bed….some see some homoerotic image….

As far as the smile is concerned, I’m sure torturing fish with a metal hook and watching as they gasp for breath before death makes him feel all warm and fuzzy. He just pretends they’re “Democrat” Senators.

My fav pix from the the WhiteHouse website are from GW & Laura’s visit to Auschwitz.

That’s where his GrandDad Prescott Bush’s investment made the $$$ Prescott used to start his political career after World War Two.

Of course the pix aren’t up on the website anymore.

If you were married to Lynn Cheney, you would probably like to get away and hold your own rod too. Okay, maybe more than hold it, but whatever he was doing with his rod, it made him smile.

Caption: Cheney actually smiles. Don’t ask why.

You are right, if you look at the picture on the Palm Beach Post’s site it totally looks like a naked woman.

I ran it thru the face recognition software from a friend in the bureau, who owed me a favor. I put it to top priority, and I should be surprise but given the known hobbies of the mystery person to be shared with Cheney. I now question how Jim Henson died, was he on to something that Bert was doing and the connection? Was it a death to look accidental?

When I saw the similarity it just sicken me to no end.

It’s Cheney playing with his pole… so what?
