WE HAVE A WINNER: Sorry it took so long, but we had some VERY funny entries and we argued about them all day long. But we finally agreed that the winner is Bryan for his simple caption: “Made In China.” Congratulations, Bryan. And to everyone else who entered, try again next week.

This was the photo.

Observers chuckled at the common mistake made by the US secretary of state Hillary Clinton when her lavish gift to America’s cold war nemisis mixed up the Russian word for reestablish (вновь устанавливать) with назначать завышенную цену the word for overcharge. “You got it wrong!”exclaimed Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, adding, ” It’s easy to do — Russians make the same mistake too. Good thing you did it in your own alphabet, not the Russian cyrillic alpahbet–that way only English speakers will get the joke.”

In an unrelated event, Russia dropped the expensive message coding programs used for international spying efforts in favor of e-mail and twitter. A high ranking official with the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) stated: “That dumb blond can’t tell the difference between красный цвет and мертвый” (red and dead) said the director of Russin security.

BBC reported that Brittish Prime Minister Gordon Brown said “I guess those crummy DVD’s I got weren’t so bad after all.”

And in other news this week Obama officials frantically sought new sources of funding for the stimuless bill now that an overcharge button meant for the US taxpayers has fallen into Russian hands.

Completely baffled, President Obama is now prepared to call off a 4-week long search for the “red button” that has been missing from the Nuclear Football.

LOL, M.A….that’s funny! Did anyone see this clip on Leno where Hillary pushed that button, and an explosion occurred outside the window?
