The photo below comes courtesy of The New York Times’s write-up of yesterday’s so-called Dueling Speeches!™. It depicts the crowd at AEI—you’ll see Peggy Noonan and Ross Douthat in there, among other bored-looking luminaries—waiting for Dick Cheney’s speech and watching the president’s talk via simulcast.

Yes. So, all you witty readers out there…any suggestions for a caption?

At the conclusion of Mr. Cheney's remarks only the three gentlemen in the forefront of the audience were asked for their opinions while the rest of the crowd found it difficult to contain their enthusiasm.
