Keep Phoenix New Times Free
We’re aiming to raise $10,000 by April 26. Your support ensures New Times can continue watching out for you and our community. No paywall. Always accessible. Daily online and weekly in print.
In honor of Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann’s recent trip to the Valley — to plant her lips on the ass of America’s self-proclaimed “toughest sheriff” — we decided to go with a photo Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s ghost “tweeters” posted on his Twitter page for this week’s You Write the Caption contest.
Arpaio, it seems, is signing a copy of his book for the presidential candidate — and no trip to Arizona’s complete without a fresh pair of pink undies.
You Write the Caption’s pretty self-explanatory. Here’s how you
play: we show you a picture, like the one above of Bachmann begging like a dog for Arpaio to endorse her candidacy.
You — in the comment section of this post — then write what you think would be an appropriate caption for the photo.
On
Monday, we’ll announce the top five reader captions and put them to a
vote. The winner will receive a pay-your-own-way trip to the historic New Times building, a firm handshake, and a lukewarm glass of municipal Phoenix tap water.
Do your worst, New Times readers — and let’s try to keep things somewhat classy (in other words, let’s keep the death threats to a minimum).
