Wow – what a response. With 129 entries, you should probably check out the whole thread, as there’s no way I can pick “the best” without leaving some really good ones out. (That said, I left some really bad ones out, too.)
First goes to: Richfisher

Second: Dave Balderstone – “No, really… If you squint just right, they look just like PET’s!”
Third: NCF TO – “This thumb represents my left-hand shield – I call it ‘Rae’. The other thumb represents my right-hand shield – I call it ‘Scottie Boy’. When the shooting stops, I will drop these shields and reveal, for all of you little people to see: the next Liberal leader!”
Honourable Mentions:
Bernie: “Iggy de Sade, decides to go with thumbscrews”.
Trodwel: “Michael Ignatieff reveals what puts him head and shoulders above the other candidates for the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada: Opposable thumbs.”
john demerais – “i’m gonna do my toenails the same shade of pinko”
Thanks for playing.
Too late for the contest:
“My left thumb represents honesty, decency, clear thinking, and principled leadership.”
“My right thumb represents the Liberal Party of Canada.”
“And now I�m going to put them together to show the Canadian people that . . . [struggle] . . . [more struggle & sweat] . . . hey, someone come over here and help me with this!”
Kate,
Just to be fair, how about one of PMSH.
You could use either of, the one with his gut sticking out with his midriff bulge showing or wearing his fishing vest in the heat of Mexico or shaking hands with his children the first day of school.

Perhaps you could try to get them to do this on a left-wingnut blog.
okay, I don’t how I missed this contest. But I am compelled to put in my four lines worth.
“You see these two thumbs? The left one is just a tidgie bit higher than the right one, eh. Well, that’s how I will govern. Just a tidge to the Left.”
First, find me the Public Service Announcement in which I promise to be “fair”?
pretty funny stuff, and i thought all conservatives were humourless. to blogwell fray, harper’s been done very well on rick mercer’s sight along with wonderboy mackay.
The contest was fun. After all, I love making fun of Liberals. Heh-heh…
I wonder, was the Trodwel second place caption from our missing freind we used to enjoy on Rightthinkingpeople?
Sorry I missed this one. But, belatedly, how about,
“How lucky can you get!! I have two left thumbs!”
My belated (and lame) caption: “I canna hold them like this much longer Captain! I’m breaking up!!”
me too, I missed it.
“Look what a star I am – if I concentrate really, really hard, I can bend my thumbs with my mind.”
Hmmmm…
“Left one is for sucking,
Right one’s up my butt…
Left one is for sucking,
Right one’s up my butt…”

Hey!
Some of those stinkers I’ll take credit for.
Thanks Kate!
Very funny stuff.
My pick was John Demerais
Pinko,… and toenails, on the same line??!!!
is this guy intiligent? realy? if he was we would not to be in that race;-)
LOL Kate , your post and digit(al) “Stephen Harper wanabe” photo (The PMSH in Afganistan) brought out the funny side of your readers. IMHO Iggie is a bought and paid for little Power Corp groupie’s piggie. He is a good writter and he had a respectable status as a writer but now the grandson of a Russian Aristocrate who was responsible for many GOOD educational reforms in the former Russian Atocracy has shamed his grandfather’s memory by working for a bunch of thugs who tried to bankrupt this beautiful nation. He looks silly trying to be a Liberal because he is not a thief and he is sinking low into the den of thieves. He is throwing away his once good name for the power lust of a bunch of thugs. I pity him because someday he will realize what a foolish move that was – he is being used and because he will never be a good imitation sow’s ear he will get thrown out by the Power Corp bougeois after that he will never be able to reclaim his place as a silk purse. Iggie is a fool and I pity him.
This is waaay too late, but my first reaction on seeing this picture was:
“Is John Kerry running for the Liberal party?”
