* Here’s a risky caption contest. US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald…
We’re gonna need some rules here…
1) Do not post anything that could get me or yourself investigated, indicted or arrested at 6 o’clock in the morning, etc.
2) Stay away from obvious “size” references at all costs or you will be permanently banished from this site and will likely be arrested at 6 o’clock tomorrow morning. (Just kidding, sir.)

USA Patrick Fitzgerald, channeling the state GOP, claims that the state budget deficit is only “this” big.
Comment by The Doc Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 12:43 pm
This is how big of a chance that Rod gets an innocent verdict
Comment by John Bambenek Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 12:43 pm
About that much chance for acquittal.

Comment by Maxwell Smart Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 12:45 pm
Nope, No way! As tempting as this is…discretion is the better part and all that.

Very small violin for Rod.

Only a “C” student in law school would think he was innocent.

“…Simon said I was this close to going to Hollywood. Paula liked my dance moves, but Randy thought I was a little pitchy. Maybe an a capella “Livin’ La Vida Loca” wasn’t the best choice for my audition…”
Comment by wordslinger Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 12:52 pm
There is a better chance of a amel passing between my fingers then Blago being found innocent….

Beware the secret federal nerve pinch of fetal position! We used it once on a sitting State Governor and are not afraid to use it again.

I auditioned for the new Transformers movie but they rejected this signature move… well, it worked on Rod and Emil

Matt’s brain is “this big” because he can’t think of a single joke not having to do with the size of, um, stuff.
Comment by Diamond Dog Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 1:22 pm
#2: I had an invisible pill that will cure the state government, but Roddy let Patti take it with her to the jungle and she bartered with a witch doctor to guarantee a not-guilty verdict for him…

We are down to the nitty gritty on the Blago case, The nitty is done and there is just this much of the gritty left.

Nope, this is LESS than zero!
Comment by Captain Flume Tuesday, Jun 30, 09 @ 2:13 pm
He wasn’t “this” close to being indicted. The Family Secrets Trial was two years ago and John DiFronzo is still a free man.

This is how much of a chance I give Gov Sanford at not being invesitgation by his state’s own AG…or of getting the keys to the locks his wife changed.
