Question of the day

Tuesday, Oct 10, 2006 - Posted by Rich Miller

How about instead of a QOTD we have a caption contest of this great photo by Charles Rex Arbogast of the Associated Press? The pic was snapped yesterday at Chicago’s Columbus Day parade.

    Geez,

    This is what everyone is wearing in Illinois.


  33. - Anonymous - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 12:04 pm:

    “What’s with the sash?”

    “It covers the wire.”


  34. - Illinifan86 - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 12:22 pm:

    ROD: You look familar-did we serve in the legislature together?

    JUDY: Are you Mayor Daley?


  35. - Arthur Andersen - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 12:24 pm:

    Rod: “My tie cost more than your whole outfit.”

  42. - Jaded - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 2:41 pm:

    Ugly Maroon outfit… Goodwill $35

    Red White and Green Sash and fake gold Broach.. Salvation Army Thrift Store $15

    Blue Power Suit, shirt and tie…. $1100

    The hope that something intelligent might someday be uttered by one of our two candidates for Governor…. Priceless.


  43. - HANKSTER - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 3:19 pm:

    I keep on thinking about “if they mated” from the Conan O’Brien show.


  44. - Casey Jones - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 3:57 pm:

  45. - Democrat - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 3:59 pm:

    Governor Ryan oops I mean Blagojevich you are one hell of a guy and love you to death.


  46. - Anon - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 4:06 pm:

    So Judy, I guess the rumor that you burst into flames in direct sunlight wasn’t true.


  47. - Rooty Tooty - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 4:47 pm:

    ROD: Hey Judy, guess what? On my way over to the parade I was stopped by a little black girl. And guess who she thought I was?

    JUDY: George Ryan?


  48. - B Hicks - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 4:50 pm:

    So, Rod, does your place have a pool? Pool and a pond….pond would be good for you, Judy.


  49. - Angie - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 5:43 pm:

    Judy, I know we’re at odds, but a bit of my hair is out of place near the front. Can we call a temporary truce so I can ask you if you’ve got any hairspray?


  50. - Schiznitz - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 5:56 pm:

    A public official and public offial A.


  51. - Disgusted - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 6:09 pm:

  53. - Buck Flagojevich - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 7:12 pm:

    RB: I do NOT! Never have. And its been reported, the right way, according to the L-A-W law that I don’t.

    JBT: Yes, you do have weasley little eyes! Don’t you notice them when you admire yourself in the mirror.


  54. - roman girl - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 7:14 pm:

    In honor of Columbus Day–
    Call me Governor Blagojevici. as in veni, vidi, vici


  55. - anonymous - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 7:16 pm:

    I think he’s getting ready to sing to her. and it goes something like this
    Hey, Jude, don’t be afraid
    But your sad campaign ain’t getting better
    Remember to call me up when I win
    and I’ll look in the camera, and give you my best grin


  56. - Anon - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 7:27 pm:

  59. - Anon - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 9:04 pm:

    ROD:Had enough?
    JUDY:What are you thinking?


  60. - Anonymous - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 10:42 pm:

  61. - Gregor - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 10:44 pm:

    “The reason for the cup is that Coffee Is For Closers, sonny. What’s the reason for all the lawyers?”


  62. - Schiznitz - Tuesday, Oct 10, 06 @ 11:28 pm:

    I’m getting the distinct impression people don’t like Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaago.


  63. - the ole precinct captain - Wednesday, Oct 11, 06 @ 5:28 am:

    You want to debate, heres your debate (as each give each other the finger)


  64. - Beowulf - Wednesday, Oct 11, 06 @ 7:43 am:

    Rod: Can you believe that Mike Madigan was actually concerned that the Democrat Party was doing the Illinois voters a disservice by having me run for re-election? He wanted Pat Quinn or someone else to run instead! Unbelievable!

    Judy: After all of the babies that we have had to kiss and the all of the hands that we were forced to shake, there was no way I was going to let Andy McKenna run a candidate with less name recognition than myself. What is it with these Party leaders? It is all about “retaining power”. Don’t they get it, Rod?
