Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, center, and Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., look at photos of a young man who used performance-enhancing drugs, as they announces legislation on a set of proposals that would cut access to performance-enhancing drugs Tuesday during a news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington. You write the cutline.
Top Cutline:
1. Sens. Schumer and Grassley examine sample photos of previous “Extreme Makeover: Government Edition” clients. Schumer decided to opt out of participation in the reality show, but Grassley still says he has “not taken the option off the table” — LynnS.
2. No thong can hide one’s loss of pride,
He could have used a tunic.
His steroid deal cannot conceal
The fact he’s now a eunuch — JohnA.
3. The senators say they oppose gay marriage “because it would take beefcakes like this right off the market, and that’s bad for America” — Brent Andrews.
