Using the comments section below, vote for your favorite caption until 5 p.m. EDT Thursday.

Here are this week’s finalists:

  • It’s great to finally meet the person who approves of my work in Congress. Glad you could make it, Mom.
  • For my next answer, I will need you to raise your other hand to ensure no recording devices are present.
  • Yes, do you have an approved question I can answer with one of my canned responses?
  • I only have time for one more question …
  • What would you like to talk about — motherhood or apple pie?
