Caption Contest - Mitt Romney & His Horse

Mitt Romney made no gaffes while in London. But has his horse gaffed? You know the one competing in the Olympics dressage (ballet dancing for gee gees) for the USA. I neither know not care. But if I was an American voter I would be pretty riled that Romney claimed $77,000 in tax deductions for keeping his pony. But as I suggested earlier this week, this could be the least of Romney’s tax worries – for more read here.

And so in honour of the great tax minimiser this week’s caption contest features a pampered dumb animal with no idea on how to fix America and also Mitt Romney’s horse.

My caption entry is:

Nag: “Mitt have you put on weight or have you got one of your Swiss bank accounts with you?”

Mitt: “Shut up or I shall outsource your job to a Mexican pony and send you to a Bain glue factory for asset stripping.”

I was trying to work out something involving Mitt boasting that unlike Clinton he got tax breaks when he went for a ride but could not quite work it out.

Last week we asked you to supply a caption for this picture.

If Nigel would like to send me an email I shall arrange to send him one of our “Piss off Argentina” mugs. The prize is the same for this week’s contest and of course you can also buy the mugs yourself here.
