Over the weekend, we posted this picture of House Speaker John Boehner and President Obama on our Facebook, and asked our followers to add their own caption. The original AP caption for this photo was: "These guys don't trust each other," but I think it's safe to say that our Facebook audience was a little more creative than that.

Here are just a few of the responses we got:
