It's Friday, and I was stupid enough to suggest a picture to Kevin for this week's Caption Contest. Next thing I know, I'm running the bloody Wizbang Weekend Caption Contest™ again.
This week's photo is courtesy of the Wayback machine, from 1999. From left to right: Defense Secretary William Cohen, President Bill Clinton, State Secretary Madeline Albright, and National Security Advisor Sandy Berger.
As always (well, nearly always), winners will be announced on Sunday.

As Hillary sings Itsy Bitsy Yellow Polka Dot Bikini:
COHEN: (thinking)Oh...my...GOD her voice is screechy. No wonder Bill never spends any time with her.
BILL: (thinking)God I think I'm gonna barf. Think Monica...think Monica.,
ALBRIGHT: (thinking)I can't watch! Yet, strangely, I can look at myself in the mirror. Naked. Strange...
BERGER: (speaking)Ahhh yeah. You go girl! Hold on, this CIA briefing in my pants is startin' to chaffe.

As the strains of the Village People’s “YMCA” play in the background:
Cohen: “I can make an “O” this way..”
WJC: “This sort of looks like an “S”..”
Madeline: “I got the “A”..”
Sandy: “ The “M” is a little tougher, but if I move my arms this way..”
WJC: “ Hey, we need another “A”. Hillary, get over here in this last chair and make a real “A” out of yourself! Ha ha ha…! Damn, this national security stuff really IS funny. It is just so great that we can all laugh about it!”
Sandy: “Yeah this is a good one. We can’t forget to break into this routine at the security meeting next week. I’ll jot down a little note here in this report from Clarke to remind us. Note: Gang must break into O-S-A-M-A routine every time someone says “Osama Bin Laden.” “

Everyone, except Sandy, was dumbfounded when Hillary revealed her political ambitions by showing she had "20" tattooed on one butt cheek and "08" on the other. Sandy broke the silence when he asked, "Do you really think you'll still be alive in 20008, Hillary?"

Stephen,

What makes you think Bergler did it? Do you see classified documents floating around the room? An explosion of that magnitude would surely have caused a great deal mof paper shrapnel to be in evidence.
On the principle of "He who smelt it dealt it," I say, look to Clinton.
