Caption Contest: Debra “I hate all Iranians” Cagan
The prize? The love and adulation of your peers, naturally!
Debra Cagan is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Coalition Affairs to Defence Secretary Robert Gates. She made her comments to a group of British MPs visiting the Pentagon.
I have a few ideas on this one, but I wouldn’t want to interfere with your muses.
D.
Every time I see that photo, I feel an irresistible urge to channel Gang of Four: “I love a man in uniform.”
It’s a MAN, baby, yeah!!-Austin Powers
My caption for this she-male would be:
“I feel German-dominatrix is the IN thing in both fashion and politics this season; and in my job, it’s important that your clothes reflect your message.”
I liked the Daily Mail’s bit on this:
“She said if we leave the south of Iraq, the Iranians will take it over,” said one MP.
Another said: “She is very forceful and some of my colleagues were intimidated by her muscular style.”
Or do they mean muscular jaw? And strong bro, and…oh for fuck’s sake She’s A Man! She’s either a raging tranny Or just seriously unfortunate. Certainly stupid.
I looked up the necklace, and it appears to have been an award given to her while in Hungary called The Commander’s Cross Order of Merit. I say we take it back, because I think saying “I hate Iranians” would earn any Girlscout a removal of her merit badge.
For some reason, I suck at captions. Probably because I’m one of the original Prolix Bastards.
“What, my hands? Oh, this happens to all boys… I mean girls… sometimes. It will go down in a minute…”
Ok, that really sucked.
“My hands? I have a little swastika in my pants!”
Ok, that sucked too.
“Who said that? The only hardon I have is one for those Iranian bastards!”
That worked a bit better.
Sigh. Back to writing longer shit, at which I at least don’t suck.
Resistance is futile!
Hmm. I think I like StarDragon’s answer the best. Concise, to the point, and, um, pointy.
On another site, someone made a Frau Farbissina reference, which is a funny reference for us Yiddishers.
The woman sniggering behind Ms. Cagan is sending her friends Cagan’s pictures and recording her statement about her favorite rock group, Queen.
