The photo below originally appeared in the NYT showing Air Force One returning from Copenhagen.

It of course, screams for a caption. I’m sure our readers can provide one.
Here’s the original caption and story from the NYT.
Major Snowstorm Hits Atlantic Coast
A major winter storm was moving up the Atlantic Coast on Friday night, with forecasters expecting accumulations of one to two feet of snow in some areas. President Obama returned early Saturday from climate talks in Copenhagen, landing at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland in the midst of the storm.
I’ll fill in the balloon with the best caption
“Are we still in Copenhagen?”
“$@#$&@#$$$&$(%$(@(*&$*%%$%$)&)%$)%)$&^!!!”
Caption;
-These Boeings sure is comfortable!
-Thank God for Western sivilisation.
-Another gin and tonic before the limousine arrives?
Ahhh…good to be home in the nice warm U S of…….oh….
“This might make it difficult to pass the Copenhagen Climate Consessions in congress”
or
“Perhaps we should wait for summer to send this thing to congress”
“Global warming my ass!
Obviously my trip was a success. Global warming has already gone.
Hmmm…so this is the Gore Effect eh? Make sure someone sends him to Aspen before my ski holiday…I want to make sure I’ve got fresh powder.
or…
“Perfect, Congress will be snowed in and will have no choice but to pass the Copenhagen Climate Consessions before the spring thaw”
Climate change you can believe in!
“Nothing to see here, the science is settled”
Obama returns from Copenhagen triumphant, having reversed global warming.
Get Al Gore on the phone.
We need to talk.
Not a problem, I’m good at shoveling.
And we thought Copenhagen was a snow job!
So, THIS is what “irony” looks like.
“Damn! Al beat me here!”
“Glad we got that global warming thing licked”.
Great to be home in the land of CO2 emissions. Note to climate change modellers: How much extra CO2 do we need to warm us up a bit?
“Damn, I’m good!
I’ve ended global warming!”
Caption
Mr. President, all that hot air from Copenhagen just froze on the way over.
“Well, that worked. Damn I’m good!”
Rahm, did you get that order delivered to Gore
to stay the hell away from Washington?
Repeat after me: I see no snow, I see no snow, I see no snow…. Damn, it’s still there!
“Tell Robert Gibbs to say, “The science of global warming is more than settled.” “
“Hansen and NASA said this
wasn’t supposed to happen!”
or
“Is Al Gore in D.C. again?”
CAPTION:
“Ohh…Al is right, this snow is really 0.1°C warmer than that of last year”
I’ll fill in the balloon with the best caption
It’s a sprint to get the best one!!!
“It’s only weather, Mr President”
“The only whether is whether I fire Hansen’s ass today or tomorrow”
Those chinese gave us a Tea Party!
Seriously Kwik?
Why does it not do what they say?
Whiteout!
“Just as we have created or saved 100,000′s of jobs so we are doing for global warming.”
[snip ] Damn It, why did Al Gore need to hitch a ride?
Are we there yet?
Let me be perfectly clear…….
Bush left this mess.
“Daddy, does this mean you’re wrong?”
This post isn’t showing up on the front page, just the link in the sidebar
“Finally, a source of Hot Air to warm our frozen butts…!”
“I ‘hope’ this weather will ‘change’….”
Henry chance (08:53:14) :
Let me be perfectly clear…….
Bush left this mess.
FUNNY!!
Success! The sea level is probably falling as well!
Remind me to fire that Hansen clown.
My caption is:
“Don’t worry Mr. President, it’s rotten snow.
I hope it isnt snowing in Hawaii next week.
I have ended the warming!
“The models predicted this. It’s worse than we thought!”
“A global warming conference in December….nice move guys”
“D@mned Gore Effect”
OT, they have snow today in Nice, SE France. Gore effect, indeed.

Dang! That Copenhagen agreement sure was effective..
I can only hope health care is handled with the same skill and audicity
“Bush and Rove did this!”
How about this for a caption: “1-2 feet of Global Warming! It’s worse than we thought!”
You could grow icicles out there.
“don’t worry Mr. President, Hansen, Mann, and Jones assure me this will be ‘adjusted’ to be the warmest December 18th this century.”
Get Hansen on the phone! “Hey bro, wazup. Listen, we have a little problem here. Can you come up with a trick to hide the gawddamnsnow? Good. Get back to me as soon as you have the article in print. Use that Nature rag. I know the publisher and he’ll have Mann peer review the thing.”
“It’s not nice to fool with Mother Nature.”
“Shovel ready?”
“Er… Rahm. You said this was only going to be a MEANINGFUL snow storm!!”
“I can’t wait for the global cooling conference in Cairo. Lets do it in July”
Can’t we just refuel and head to the Maldives?
“Darn, this must be Moscow!”
Haven’t we taken off yet?
Empty like that seems quite appropriate.
“American children gain much pleasure from snow, pleasure that many African children will never experience. We are a selfish nation, our children are selfish and they should be ashamed of themselves. Crystalline water ice inequality is a major moral issue that must be addressed by rich nations.”
OR
“All hail my latest achievement, the reversal of global warming. I truly am a god.”
“I’ll be out in a minute, just finishing up the calculations for my carbon footprint for the trip.”
Yeah, right.
My Fellow Americans ….. I’ve just saved you from bankruptcy
Revision, with a nod to other posters :-)
Damn I’m good — sea level’s probably falling, too.
“Yes we canned global warming”
Refuel, We’re off to Kenya!

Ah, land of the free and skeptical.
Throw another $100 billion log on the fire, quick.
“I suck! Inhofe for President.”
It looks like a Chinese cloud seeding operation. I guess I shouldn’t have pissed them off.
This is part of a vast right-wing conspiracy
my god, I’m powerful.
Actually, I think the “empty words” balloon is very appropriate as it is. I don’t think he’s ever said anything of substance, especially in regards to climate change.
I’m dreaming of a green Christmas…
“Tiger! Ho man ya should been in Copenhagen! Those Scandinavian chicks are hot.” (LOUD CLICK!!)
Quick fake the data and put it in the IPCC report as a JULY picture
At least it snowed in Nice France too!
grumpy old man (08:44:21) :
Not a problem, I’m good at shoveling.
lol
shoveling what?
“Welcome to Washington for another Obaminable Snowjob!”
A+
How about a variation of the matrix, there is no spoon.
God: Do not try and stop the warming. That’s impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth.
Obama: What truth?
God: There is no warming. Then you’ll see that it is not the climate that changes, it is only yourself.
“Now that we’ve won the war on warming, we’re going to need to fight a war on cooling. Anyone for a tax on Oxygen?”
Mann is now trying to distance himself from Jones et al. It won’t work- just check out the comments to his article.

X@*&%%$!!!
Al got here first!
Wow one days work and i have fixed the world, i feel another nobel award coming!
Behold the Warming has ended and I have brought you to he promised climate.
Perhaps this is too crass but please keep in mind that such ugly truth is often revealed by our polititions in their private moments.
If Obama is sincere, he might utter, [snip] However, I suspect he really thinks, “Suckers.”
Mr. President, the science is not only settled, it appears to be frozen as well.
We’re going to pass a treaty to fight global warming and we’re not going to let reality get in the way.
Well done Mr President; a washout and a whiteout!
If it get colder I can use my own hockey stick
“I smell a Rove!”
“The denialist press is going to have a field day!”
“This unprecedented snow is just unprecedented weather and is not to be confused with unprecedented climate change.”
“I need Mike’s Nature Trick – quick!”
I leave Biden in charge for ONE day……..
sorry meant to read
If it gets any colder I can use my own hockey stick
[snip] skeptics are gonna have a FIELD DAY with this!
Get the AP and Reuters on this….our efforts are already showing success!
You know Rahm, I can’t believe how easy this job is. All I had to do was fly to Copenhagen and look! I’ve fixed climate change faster than the economy!
Obama solves Global Warming, makes it snow!
I didn’t spit up my coffee till Anthony wrote. Best, by far:
“Don’t worry Mr. President, it’s rotten snow.”
Pilot to Obama:
“You’re going to look awfully stupid stepping out of this plane.”
“Thank God. This cold means we will have little problem to show rising temperatures by next year’s climate conference…”
I really am the messiah, one speech in Copenhagen and global warming is fixed!
“No Sir, Mr. President. We were actually referring to hiding the decline of your poll numbers. Watch your step there, Sir, it is still very slick.”
“I, the Messiah, led the Global Warming forces to victory.
Uh … what was that, Michelle?”

Awesome. Those are bloody palm trees!
We’re all supposed to want cooling instead?
Quick, fire those engines back up, my feet are getting cold!

WATTSUPWITHTHAT !!!!
Damn it! I’ve left my snow shoes in Copenhagen.
“Look at all the flower petals! It’s spring time! Stupid Global Warming!”
By the way, not sure if you’ve seen this before: http://3.ly/P6ob It’s an article about how Wikipedia has been subverted by the AGW crew.
Hm! snow in winter, AGW is really hitting us hard this time. Someone call Nancy and Harry!, we urgently need to pass a bill to regulate snowfall.
“Wake up Mr President – it’s all been a dream !”
“Our power over Earth’s climate is complete. Bwuhahaha!”
The evidence is clear; Climate Change has given us the warmest snow blizzards since records began.
“I thought we were landing in Maryland, not the artic”
You mean you got the signs the wrong way round and it’s cooling?
I’m sorry Mr. President, we left your goulashes in the oval office. They are in the same box with your “teleprompter”.
or………
President stay on the plane. The Shadow of Death, I mean Gordon, is waiting in Arrivals
“Who let Gore on the [snip] plane?”
“This must be some terrorist attack…”
Love the captions guys, I had a couple all picked out but ya’ll beat me to it. Have a Merry Christmas
Hot air and US President’s integrity stranded in Copenhagen…ego arrives DC in tact.
“You’ll never know what I am saying because the whiteout is hiding my words”
I’d leave it as it is,a big fat nothing…
The caption should be, of course –
WATTS UP WITH THAT!?
Mr President Sir, we’ve just found a stowaway in the hold… a man by the name of Albert Gore.
Oh! There you are Al, thank goodness. I had a dream………. a terrible dream….
I dreamed, in a sense we’ve come to our nation’s capital to cash a check………i dreamed, of signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. It was only a dream Al…wasn’t it….. Al…Al..
Ok, ok, who let Gore land first?
My caption is:
“Watts up with that?” ;)
Hey Holdren – I told ya!
Where’s my 20 bucks?
Oh no – a sign from God saying “It’s not the CO2!”
“Oh, a snowstorm? I was expecting another storm that starts with s!”
“Step away from the windows… nothing to see here…”
So where is the Global Warming ?
(grabbing phone)
Mann, Hansen .. you’re fired !!
Where the hell is global warming! I’m freezing!
“Don’t worry, Mr. President. The crew will lay a carpet of surplus dollar bills to your limo to keep your shoes clean.”
What ‘Gore Effect”?
As President, I commanded
‘colder’ and it is… Call it
The Obama Effect, OK?!
“This is an even chillier reception than I got from the Chinese delegation!”
P. Gosselin stole mine (it’s worst than we thought)
Then what about this:
Damn, these oil industry exec’s are good. First they froze the talked in copenhagen and now they are freezing hell over.
Caption: “See I am so awesome, I am already affecting the climate. I absolutely rock!”
“Hey! WUWT?”
On a more serious note – I’ve long thought that the best way to convince people that global warming is overhyped is with memorable storms. This one will get the attention of 50 million people and all of the US Senate who can’t declare a snow day if they want to pass health care legislation before Chrstmas.
With some long term forecasts calling for a mid-Atlantic storm track this winter, this storm may be only the first of several reminders. Yay!
S’now business like show business.
‘Yes we can’t’
“Negative feedback has kicked in, Mr President.”
“Then CO2 must be to blame!”
“I was talking about the opinion polls, sir.”
As we Noo Yawkuhs like to say,
“Weah’s da’ global wawmin’?!!”
I actually really like the idea of a blank speaking bubble (or thinking bubble) over Obama’s head, but I think that would not be clear enough coming from the plane.
how about:
“This is Bush’s fault.”
Mission Accomplished!
“When you control the media as I do, truth is never an inconvenience to my agendas.”
“SIR, please watch your step, there is five inches of global warming on the ground”

Stupid Al Gore. He can’t get anything right!
Hummm, this is unusual. 20 inches of snow in DC? It must be because of global warming!
“Wow! I’m gone for one day and look how much the climate changed!”

It’s worse than we thought, the climate changed again. Hell actually froze over this time.

“At the airport we can build a snowman,
And pretend that Al Gore’s not a clown
We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman,
Until Jim Hansen comes to knock him down.”
I am sorry, Mr President, the pilot’s new, he thought you wanted to go to Greenland.
Maybe it’s time for another “Weather is not climate” posting about the blizzard on the East Coast? They’ve shut down a lot of airports today. Folks who didn’t get out of Copenhagen yesterday may well be stuck somewhere…
“But it’s a Warm Snow”
Where’s Al , I’ll skin him
Welcome to Andrews Air Force base, Mr President. The cottonwood trees are in full bloom in this unusually warm year.
Little ice-age here!
The Copenhagen agreement has worked faster than expected….. The carbon offsets are rapidly cooling the planet as we speak.

Mission Accomplished!

Stay seated, Sir. The endangered polar bear population has exploded and there’s a couple of them outside the plane right now.
“If I say there is NO snow! Then there is NO snow!
We’ve only stopped in Ottawa to refuel … right?
Not for the caption but how soon can we start to hear scare stories about global freezing and hordes of raveging killer polar bears due to co2 . For the caption:

“I think I’ll send Joe to pick up my next Nobel.”
Al Gore: Mr President, as you can see, GW is worse than we thought.
“Holy busted thermometers, Mr. President!”
Now this is change I can believe in!
OH goody daddy w’re going to have a white Christmas… Shut up kid, I don’t want to hear it.
“Another blooper like this and no one will ever belive me again!”
“Damn it! I told Gore NOT to meet us at the airport!”
“This is the moment you predicted, sir! The oceans have stopped rising. The earth is cooling. We have restored our nation’s image as the last, best hope on earth! Now, could you say something that would warm things up just a little?”
What’s up doc? Global Cooling, I guess!
I trust the photo was taken after they plowed the runway.
Damn the data! Full speed ahead!
“Those white things Mr. President? Those are the
ghost-tears of dead baby polar bears.”

“Get me to Yamal stat! That one tree is our last chance for some warming!”
“OMG, gobal warming made the sky fall!!!!”
Where’s a blind eye when you need one?
Sorry, I don’t know where else I can post this and get input from knowledgeable skeptics.
I am currently trying to find out more information on this:
In Lord Monckton’s letter to Dr. Pachauri he (unscientifically)
demonstrated that the slopes for the previous periods of warming were
similar to the slope of the warming period we are currently in (page 6
in the PDF linked below.)
http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/images/stories/papers/originals/pachauri_letter.pdf
However I’m having trouble finding data or studies that demonstrate
the warming is occurring at the same rate as earlier in the century.
This is where I am going with this:
The scientific literature says that our current warming (last 30-35)
years is too great to be caused by the sun alone. They attribute it
of course to anthropogenic causes. They wholly attribute the
1850-1975/1980 warming we have seen to natural causes. It sure seems
that if our current warming is at a rate no greater than the previous
warming that it could be caused by the same natural mechanisms.
Please help with any information you may have.
Success! We sure fixed global warming, and fixed it real fast.
Gaia is a denier!
Plenty of excellent, I like the “don’t worry Mr. President, Hansen, Mann, and Jones assure me this will be ‘adjusted’ to be the warmest December 18th this century” as well as “Obviously my trip was a success. Global warming has already gone”.
yesterday went to watch videos of Piers Corbyn, there was an opportunity to read his forecast done on the 2nd of December for the second part of december. for the US and Canada he wrote: “19th to 31st: a series of waves of severe and at times dangerous wintry weather” a little bit down he wrote “severe deluges of snow/blizzards hail & winter thunder/ tornadoes at times”. And more particularly “19-20 Dec Major SWIP & Deluges / extreme activity”. Ok it started on the 18th but it is relatively accurate so far.
Sorry guys but 22nd and 23rd is the same, then 25th to 27th, it is moderate and not major. then “28th to 30th MAJOR (in capital letters) cold blasts & snowstorms extreme activity TOPa SWIP with notable simultaneous extreme events around world.” I do not want to know what he would have forecasted if there was no global warming!?
No gentleman I am reliably informed that the climate is warm it’s the weather that is cold.
So do you want the fur muffles or not sir?
Erm!!
“We have enough fuel to make it to Hawaii Mr. President, but Rahm wants to check that AF1s carbon footprint won’t reflect badly on you in light of Nopenhag.., sorry, Copenhagen. Want to make some snow angles while we wait?”
“Hey, it is really bad blizzard! This is proof of man made climate change.”
I’ve always said we can lick this global warming thing….Yes we can.
Time to keep my promise. Order 600,000 shovels and get those people working. While your at it, find some solar powered snow blowers.
Damn, CO2 isn’t gassing the planet!
What do you mean we can’t take off, who the hell let that Glow Ball Warming ice up our wings?
BTW are we still on the “Hope ‘n Whoring” tour?

The snowy photo’s empty speech bubble is a suitable metaphor for an era dominated by an almost complete scientific, political, journalistic and cultural intellectual whiteout among the Western Establishments. Climategate and the fiasco of COP15 hopefully marks the dawning of a new era or, dare I say, a truly democratic New World Order of rationality and sanity.

Snow in Washington? That’s nothing how about snow in Nice SOUTHERN France. It’s worse than we thought.

“Welcome to Loring AFB Maine Mr. President. As part of our Executive Sustainability Project we’ll be taking the bus from here to DC.”
Those snowflakes keep falling on my head, it isn’t what the CRU said, their science must be completly wrong, nothing seems to fit……
Mission Accomplished!
Damn, where’s that tele-prompter? I need to say something intelligent.
You generate hundreds of tons, and what do you get?
Another day colder and deeper in debt.

There was a young Pres called Obama
Who wished his return a bit warmer
The steps were like glass
And he slipped on his ass
Now they’re checking his butt out in Trauma
“I said Maryland not Iceland!”
Don’t cry for the AGW crowd. No doubt the next model (after sufficient funding of course) will reveal that these weather patterns were to be expected and most likely due to some previously unsuspected human meddling that threatens to shut down the Atlantic current or some such unless of course the rich nations do something (expensive) right now. Right now!
‘I’m sorry Mr President but the whole thing was a pack of lies.’ ‘ Inuit !’
“Is that snow or have we landed in Colombia?”
Blast. They’ll have to shovel Crystalline Global Warming off the white house stairs again.
“Get God on the phone and tell him we need to have a talk,” Obama in his most arrogant voice.
“Mr. President, when we average this over the entire globe, it all melts.”
or,
“Mr. President, getting to work cleaning up this mess is the message you need to sell from Copenhagen.”
“Who can turn that into a nice sounding teleprompter soundbite?”
Newsflash:
Autocue breaks on Airforce one.
“Sorry sir, due to Washington being snowed in, we had to divert to East Anglia, England. Do you want to drop in and see Dr. Jones for a little chat?”
So far I like “hope and change” the best.
1) Obama: We KNOW Global Warming is the cause of extreme weather. If anyone needs proof about how serious the problem is, just look out the window.
2) Air Force 1: Hey Tower, we need taxi assistance due to this global-warming-induced blizzard.
Tower: OK AF1, we’ll send out a global-warming-producing aircraft tug to tow you to parking.
3) Obama: Only Global Warming deniers can see a blizzard out their window. No one sees a blizzard out their window, do they?
lolwut?
“Oh H-E-double hockey sticks!”
Quite easy:
“What’s up with that?”
Ecotretas
“You can wake up now, Mr. President. Global warming is over.”
“Mister President, I don’t think we can hide this decline.”
“Will someone tell me when we’re going to get this dang plane off the ground and start home?… What do you mean we’re home?”
“Get me the teleprompt, so I can melt this stuff.”
“Thank God for Global Warming, or we’d all freeze to death!”
‘No need to force a smile,Mr President. No-one will see your teeth anyway.’
Two suggestions:
1. “See, it’s working already!”
2. “REDUCTION IN OUR TIME” (Apologies to Neville Chamberlain, who was a CONSERVATIVE and knew he had been fooled 2 years later. Will the “O” know
that? Ever?)
“One of the lessons of history is that Nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say. “
What’s not to like? It only takes 7 hours, 400,000 lbs of fuel and you can’t even smell the sulfur anymore…
“No we can’t take the hell back off, Mr. President! Some freakin’ Czar just outlawed wing de-icer!”
No way I’m going home after health care “reform” is enacted!
“Can’t anything go right?”
“Stewardess, get Joe another drink”

Recap of
Copenhagen – Winners:
The World (maybe energy can be directed to “real” problems facing mankind)
Limo Drivers & Caterers in Copenhagen
The CRU “Mole” (leaked Climategate emails)
Mother Earth (She provided her opinion with “weather-not-climate” in Copenhagen and around the world)
Santa Claus (maybe the eco freaks will leave him and the polar bears alone now)
Attorney’s; The momentum is obviously on the side of rational thinking and the fight will now go into the courts starting with a challenge of the ridiculous EPA endangerment finding
WUWT (http://wattsupwiththat.com/ gains credibility)
Lord Monckton (he called the outcome a long time ago)
And my favorite – Phelim McAleer ( http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2009/12/15/polar-bear-phil-jones/ )
Copenhagen – Losers:
Christmas Trees (UN did not allow them at COP15)
Al “Nobel Prize” Gore (completely discredited)
Capitalism (paying billions in global welfare to undeveloped countries to lower the planet temp 1.5C per COP15 agreement – huh ?, how will the undeveloped countries do that ?, actually lower the physical climates temp – huh? Come-on folks – this money will go to corrupt third world governments that will spend it on socialistic activities if they don’t shove it in their pockets – your tax money !)
Socialism (Man-Made Global Warming + “Green” movement + UN/IPCC = Socialism) became more exposed
Carbon Trading Initiatives and “Green” Venture Funds (values have plummeted)
Science and Academics (thanks to corrupt researchers, professors and institutions who sold out for grant money)
Genuine environmentalism which was hijacked by the Socialist “Green” movement and may become collateral damage
RealClimate (http://www.realclimate.org/ loses credibility)
EPA (which has been taken over by far left eco nuts)
“Look, just dust off the stuff on Schneider and ice ages from the ’70s, rename AGW from Warming to Wintering and we’re good to go again”
Damn It! I told Al Gore to stay in Copenhagen.
“Shall we hide the decline, Mr. President?”
“Hey Michelle, the ski trip I promised you starts now.”
Presidential aide: “Mr president,we have some bad news and some good news”
president: “Whats the bad news?”
Presidential aide: “It’s snowing”
President:”Ok,whats the good news?”
Presidential aide: “There’s plenty of it……………woohoo paaaaarty”

The flight of President Barak Obama has ended now, a flight not only from point A to point B, but also from the fear of a recurring global climate meltdown. Mr. Obama has that fear no longer, though, for the moment, he is, as he said, alone in this assurance. Happily, his conviction will not remain isolated too much longer, for happily, tangible manifestation is very often left as evidence of trespass, even from so intangible a quarter as the Twilight Zone.

“Major Snowstorm Blankets US Capital
Forecasters say snow accumulations could reach 60 centimeters around Washington DC
A snow emergency has been declared in the U.S. capital as the region braces for what may prove to be the largest December snowstorm since 1932.
The National Weather Service predicts more than 30 centimeters of snow will blanket the U.S. northeast by late Saturday. Forecasters say snow accumulations could reach 60 centimeters around Washington DC.
Just south of the capital in Virginia, more than 12 centimeters had already fallen by late Friday. The national guard is on alert, and a state of emergency has been declared.
While the country’s entire northeast will see considerable snowfall, the Washington area is expected to be among the hardest hit. The U.S. National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning in the capital for Saturday, warning residents travel will be “extremely dangerous.”

Long ago, America was ruled by a king named Obama. Like many leaders and men of power, Obama was surrounded by people who were always praising him. Every time he walked into a room, the flattery began.
“You are the greatest man that ever lived,” one would say.
“O king, there can never be another as mighty as you,” another would insist.
“Your highness, there is nothing you cannot do,” someone would smile.
“Great Obama, you are the monarch of all,” another would sing. “Nothing in this world dares to disobey you.”
“Very well. Snow,” cried Obama, “I command you to come no further! Snow Stop falling. Do not dare touch my feet!”
He waited a moment, quietly, and a tiny wave rushed up the sand and lapped at his feet.
“How dare you!” Obama shouted. “Snow, Stop now! I have ordered you to retreat before me, and now you must obey! Stop!”

“get connolley on the phone. there’s some spinning to be done”
Lawrence Solomon: Wikipedia’s climate doctor
One person in the nine-member Realclimate.org team — U.K. scientist and Green Party activist William Connolley — would take on particularly crucial duties.
Connolley took control of all things climate in the most used information source the world has ever known – Wikipedia. Starting in February 2003, just when opposition to the claims of the band members were beginning to gel, Connolley set to work on the Wikipedia site. He rewrote Wikipedia’s articles on global warming, on the greenhouse effect, on the instrumental temperature record, on the urban heat island, on climate models, on global cooling. On Feb. 14, he began to erase the Little Ice Age; on Aug.11, the Medieval Warm Period. In October, he turned his attention to the hockey stick graph. He rewrote articles on the politics of global warming and on the scientists who were skeptical of the band. Richard Lindzen and Fred Singer, two of the world’s most distinguished climate scientists, were among his early targets, followed by others that the band especially hated, such as Willie Soon and Sallie Baliunas of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, authorities on the Medieval Warm Period.
All told, Connolley created or rewrote 5,428 unique Wikipedia articles. His control over Wikipedia was greater still, however, through the role he obtained at Wikipedia as a website administrator, which allowed him to act with virtual impunity. When Connolley didn’t like the subject of a certain article, he removed it — more than 500 articles of various descriptions disappeared at his hand. When he disapproved of the arguments that others were making, he often had them barred — over 2,000 Wikipedia contributors who ran afoul of him found themselves blocked from making further contributions. Acolytes whose writing conformed to Connolley’s global warming views, in contrast, were rewarded with Wikipedia’s blessings. In these ways, Connolley turned Wikipedia into the missionary wing of the global warming movement

Mr. Precedent, it’s unpresidented — worse than we thought.
“And you guys thought I couldn’t top the snow job I gave in Copenhagen…”
Here are my favorites. (I’m partial to brevity.) I’ve put asterisks on my top picks.
Not a problem, I’m good at shoveling.
“Shovel ready?”
*Time to keep my promise. Order 600,000 shovels and get those people working.
“I ‘hope’ this weather will ‘change’….”
“Don’t worry Mr. President, it’s rotten snow.”
Get Hansen on the phone! “Hey bro, wazup. Listen, we have a little problem here. Can you come up with a trick to hide the gawddamnsnow? Good.”
Damn I’m good — sea level’s probably falling, too.
*Mission Accomplished!
“I suck! Inhofe for President.”
Well done Mr President; a washout and a whiteout!
*WATTSUPWITHTHAT !!!!
*“Try looking out the other window.”
“Step away from the windows… nothing to see here…”
Looks like we just landed in the Twilight Zone…
Hell actually froze over this time.
*I leave Biden in charge for ONE day…….
Where’s Al, I’ll skin him
Bring me the Head of Global Warming.
Run that past me one more time, Al baby – cooling is really warming?
*“Hi, Dr. Mann, this is Barry. I expect an explanation.”
OH goody daddy we’re going to have a white Christmas… Shut up kid, I don’t want to hear it.
“It’s worse than we thought!”
“Negative feedback has kicked in, Mr President.”
*“Ticker tape parade greets President after European climate victory”
Welcome home to the land of the FREE – ZING Mr President!
“The day after Copenhagen.”
What’s our Plan B?
“Are we in Kansas yet, Toto?”
*“Sir, we may have overdone it with the carbon offsets.”
“Welcome to Loring AFB Maine Mr. President. As part of our Executive Sustainability Project we’ll be taking the bus from here to DC.”
You generate hundreds of tons, and what do you get?
Another day colder and deeper in debt.
♫ Let it snow let it snow let it snow ♫
“Oh H-E-double hockey sticks!”
“Can’t anything go right?”
“Figures.”
“It’s a CRUel world”
“Stewardess… make mine a double”
*“Phew, good job I used the phrase “climate change”; otherwise I would have looked a right boob.”
Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
And the skeptics are so delightful,
And since we’ve nothing to show,
Throw some dough, go find Joe, I’ll lay low!
And I kinda like these submissions of mine:
“Where’s a blind eye when you need one?”
“Who’s the humorist at HAARP?”
“Good thing we left early (arrived no later) or everyone would be laughing.”
“Out of the frying pan and into the soup!”
*“Get outta here with that parka!”
“I bring snow in our time”

PRICELESS!!!
I like the rotten snow as well!
Summers go get me 10Giga Tons of CO2, I’m freezing my balls off here.
I live in the north west of England (and yes, it is currently -5degC and covered in snow) but over the past 30 years I have regularly travelled to the US. One of my memories is from about 1993, I missed my connection back to the UK because the taxi driver taking me from La Guardia to JFK gave me a tour of Long Island to boost his fare, and I was sat in my hotel room fuming with anger watching some talk show on the TV. On which a popular female singer of the day said “I cry myself to sleep every night knowing my young son will never see snow in New York”. It made me smile then, it makes me smile even more now. (You will recall that in the early 90′s there were a few years of low winter precipition across the northern hemisphere)
Mr. President, is driving a snowplow a green job?
To be clear, this unprecedented result is from adding too much value to the homogenized data.
Obviously, this is not the climate model that I thought I knew.
I am deeply humbled.
Rahm, call Al and tell him we’ll take 10,000 more credits.
” I want the PR effort ramped up. I want the most vocal skeptics destroyed, Immanuel. You hear me? Destroyed. Start with the academics and make sure no one who doubts me gets any sort of Federal grants. If they already got Federal bucks, audit them. I want the IRS on this ASAP. And make sure any blogs that go against the consensus are investigated. We need Cap and Trade. We need Healthcare. We are just months from taking over the entire economy and every business will bow to us. There will be payback.”
That’s it. I can’t stand this s***! I’m moving. Where’s my birth certificate?
Hmmm, this isn’t the change I was hoping for. -B O

No need to sulk Al, according to the CRU snow is getting warmer.

On that note, just dropped in to check out the site and laughed my a$$ off at the 647 comments!!
I just had to weigh in on this 631 comment thread.
“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. –Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.”

Thank GOD for this Global Warming!
“In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives, of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the Protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”

Dr. Bob
There was a page at Climate4you.com regarding a comparison of the amount and rates of change between the early and late warming. Can’t find it though. It is a bit hard to browse the site. He found very little difference.
I have done this in an Excel chart with old Hadcrut info. Probably before the latest “fixes”. It showed what Monton shows.
Also, for fun I did a chart where I averaged the temperatures for each warming and cooling period, created anomalies for each period based on each average. The early and late warming differed by 0.06.
I wrote this up in the comments section a thttp://wmbriggs.com/blog/?p=1467, which also comments on Patrick Micheals book Climate of Extremes and his comments on the early late warming.

Marshmallow World music !
By: Carl Sigman
Ahhhh, it’s a marshmallow world in the winter,
When the snow comes to cover the ground.
It’s the time for play, it’s a whipped cream day,
I wait for it the whole year round!
Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly,
In the arms of the evergreen trees;
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head,
It’s shining so your nose won’t freeze!
The world is your snowball, see how it grows,
That’s how it goes, whenever it snows.
The world is your snowball just for a song,
Get out and roll it along!
It’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts,
Take a walk with your favorite girl.
It’s a sugar date, so what if spring is late,
In winter it’s a marshmallow world!
Dr. Bob (10:42:37) :
I am currently trying to find out more information on this:
In Lord Monckton’s letter to Dr. Pachauri he (unscientifically)
demonstrated that the slopes for the previous periods of warming were
similar to the slope of the warming period we are currently in (page 6
in the PDF linked below.)
http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/images/stories/papers/originals/pachauri_letter.pdf
However I’m having trouble finding data or studies that demonstrate
the warming is occurring at the same rate as earlier in the century.
The graph there speaks for itself surely? The very same graph that is being used to tell us that the rate if warming is dramatically and continuously increasing, can just as well be used to show that it has happened before at exactly the same rate twice last century, with little or no CO2 to make it happen.
The same graph, completely different message.
The point being made is that the figures don’t lie, the lies are being made to figure (to paraphrase my high school statistics teacher)
“I meant Washington, D.C., you idiot!”
Sorry, in relation to the above, the ‘original’ graph is on page 2 of the pdf.
“Captain told me that it was a Good job there’s only 10 of us on the aeroplane or else we wouldn’t have gotten stopped by the end of the runway!”
“Did anyone see the football. I havn’t seen it since meeting with Golden Brown nose!”
“What do you mean I ran out of carbon credits and we had to land in Iceland?”
“we better pass the $100 billion quick because you add all this snow melt to the Al’s estimate current level of sea rise for 2009 and DC will be under water!”
“some one should have to buy the right from Al to snow!”
Just think, We could have prepared the nation for all this snow, if we had only taken our fingers out of our ears.

I’m contemplating the failure of the Copenhagen summit while enjoying the fiercest snowstorm on record for the Washington area. But it isn’t the snow that doomed the summit’s agenda – it was the moral incoherence of the Western leaders there. On the one hand, they appealed to lofty Western ideals like public-mindedness and charity. On the other, they portrayed the culture which gave rise to these values as monstrously exploitive and on the verge of anihilating all life on the planet. Can’t have it both ways – and the politicians got stuck on this paradox.

Ok gentlemen we have a consensus, we tell the press its sunblock!
Tell me the White House staff didn’t get my recommendation about an 80% reduction in CO2 usage when setting the thermostat.
Fellow citizens, the thermostat of the CO2 induced climate apparatus in Copenhagen has been set wrong by our honorable climatologists. Instead of tuning it to a maximum rise of plus 2°C, they tuned it to minus 2°C ! I apologize to you for this inconvenient trick.

I have a suggestion ( Yes, its ironi ):
Let us start a new UN Agency which will enforce that all dead animal corpses are collected (by officers of this mentioned UN agency) and when they rot, we will collect all the dangerous greenhous gases in a bottle.
The very same UN agency will then administrate one big GREEN powerplant in each country injecting these dangerous gases down into the earth’s crust. End of problem.

Who can’t say that Copenhagen was a success?!
On December 10 last, a small Obama statue unveiled at Taman Menteng, Central Jakarta. The statue named “Barry Dream Statue” that shows Obama wearing a little T-shirts and shorts were lifting his left hand the infestation small butterfly.
This statue of development initiated by an organization called Friends of Obama. The bottom of the statue reads “Little play with her mother in this Menteng area. He grew up and became President of the United States (U.S.) to 44 and Nobel Peace Prize. ”
Stance identified only reason for giving inspiration to the children and the teachers that education in Indonesia can print an extraordinary president. In 1967-1971, a small Obama once served on elementary school students in two schools, namely grade 3 in elementary school and moved to Assisi Besuki Menteng elementary school in the 4th grade now the SDN 01 Menteng.
Related establishment statue, a positive response came directly from President Barack Obama. Having heard the news, Obama had promised would look directly at the statue visited Jakarta in early 2010.
Establishment of “Barry Dream Statue” was not without resistance. Some small communities Jakarta, for example, consider the statue as an absurdity that made up. Mr Obama once lived childhood in Menteng.
Although today he made history as the U.S. President, Obama is an American citizen, not a nobody in the history of the Indonesian nation. Obama is considered not to have an important contribution to the Indonesian people.
In contrast to, for example, “Clinton Statue” which was established and inaugurated in Kosovo in November. Populous Muslim country in the rest of Eastern Europe were made by former President Bill Clinton as their hero.
After the break away from Yugoslavia in 1991, the prolonged war and genocide can not be circumvented in Kosovo.
Until the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia Clinton orders in 1999 until the surrender. Kosovo had just declared its independence in 2008.
The relevance of “Barry Dream Statue” many critics questioned whether the nation has been the lack of a more worthy and appropriate for making statues and placed in Menteng Park? If the purpose of establishment of the statue to give inspiration to the youth of the nation, why is not such figures as Ali Sadikin, M Husni Thamrin, Ismail Marzuki, or legends such as The Pitung Batavia or Batavia Benyamin Sueb figures?
Is harder, the critics claim that this nation is a sovereign nation, a country that has identity as an independent nation.
Statues Obama has no relevance to the history of Indonesia. The monument should be seen from the historical struggle of the Indonesian nation. Like the statue of General Sudirman or Prince Diponegoro who was recorded in the history of Indonesia.
For all the reasons why, according to his critics, should be a statue of Obama in Menteng Park must be dismantled and lowered for not complying with the color and Indonesianness face.
Then, how should treat a small statue of Obama standing already overdo it? Is it because of the criticism and the various reasons and should be dismantled and lowered it? Or refer to the penggagasnya reasons, the statue was still standing upright in Menteng Park until President Barack Obama was later seen directly, and let the kids be proud Menteng.
Without having to engage in two currents sentimentalistis interests, it’s good to see, explore, and understand the existence of the statues of the monument, which still exists whether or not exist anymore.
In essence, it is clear the existence of a statue of the monument not set in stone. Sometimes he made and the established thanks to a regime, which one day could be dismantled and lowered, or vice versa can also still exist because of fragrant name.
May still remember the scene on the monument overthrow Saddam Hussein statue in downtown Baghdad after the U.S. invasion succeeded in overthrowing the regime in 2003. So did overthrow the statue of Lenin in 1991 after the Soviet disbanded and turned into Russia. Unfortunately, there is no monument or a statue of Suharto in Jakarta, because if any, may also be cut down students in 1998.
The monument is poured, whether in the form of statues and paintings, depicting the existence of the ruler or the aromatic character name.
In his work titled Beauty and Islam: Aesthetics in Islamic Art and Architecture (1997), Majid Fakhry explained that the monument represents an existence.
Like the statues of many established in Europe or the paintings that decorate the old buildings in Europe, they wanted to show an existence.
Dikreasi monument that artists have lived in his time and trying to tell us who lives now that they never existed in his day.
The question, whether the statue of the character’s impressive because terkandungnya truth in it or vice versa? If not, the statue is certain to be torn down.
The statue as a symbol actually represents the truth, both versions of a regime of truth and the truth of people’s version. If the truth is accepted by both parties, either by the authorities and the people, a memorial statue would survive until whenever.
But on the other hand, if the truth versions only rulers and not for the people, wait for the date of the game.
At the time ruler and his regime is gone, monumennya statue will also be eliminated.
In the context of “Barry Dream Statue”, live how society Jakarta or Indonesia in general take the perspective. Would Obama or placed as a symbol of historical figures who have their own impression of most people of Indonesia, or vice versa Obama became a symbol of U.S. arrogance?
Problem is overthrown, or at least “Barry Statue Dream” is a matter of time. For maybe the pejorative tone that was criticized for a small statue of Obama only a small part of Indonesian society. While most of it supports the existence of these statues.
If any statue in Menteng Park will be dismantled again, let the time said. Does Obama on his way to prove the promises of change over time, or vice versa. If Obama broken, just Collapse image. If not, abadikanlah him as a world figure who had an impressive heart of Indonesian society.

Congressional Quarterly is reporting that the “Copenhagen Accord” is thought to offer support for the Cap-and-Trade bill in the Senate S. 1733. I don’t buy it, but that’s where Obama is going with this. The next battle is to defeat S. 1733 in the Senate. Here is a link to the Inhofe’s Cap-and-Tax Opposition Resource Center http://bit.ly/4I5uNx

Comment #1026:
According to today’s NY Times, Washington got 16″ of snow, a record for that city.
Mr Watts sure knows how to increase his comment count.
Copenhagen a blinding success! Planet all ready cooling down!
DOH!!!

“President Obama arriving in Washington DC on his return from Copenhagen. Hurricane Zed pounded the Eastern seaboard with more than a foot of snow in just 15 minutes. Zed is the latest landfall for an Atlantic Hurricane ever, and President Obama reiterated the need for climate change legislation to be passed to avoid the catastrophe of year-round hurricanes, including the new and dangerous category of ‘Snowicanes’.”

Never mind.
Arrrghh ! Svensmark was on the money!
See, didn’t I tell you we are in serious trouble? All that snow and not a single Polar bear
Let me be perfectly clear….at this defining moment in history…this is an unprecidented, uh, climate change we don’t need.
“This snowstorm is unprecedented in the history of the Universe! I believe this event shows not only the reality of climate change, but the urgency with which we must act NOW to stop the grave threat of global warming!! My administration has worked with Congress to develop a plan that will cost trillions of dollars per year and ELIMINATE the national debt by Xmas!!!”

Sir, I don’t think exiting the plane wearing Bermuda shorts is going to be a enough to satisfy the GW skeptics.
Well, shoot – I’d tried uploading a little animated gif of Obama to flickr, and here – suggesting that he be added to the caption photo, but he doesn’t appear animated on the flickr site…. and that’s how he’s funny, is when he’s animated. Not sure how to show him to folks in the animated version, or to send to Anthony to consider adding to the photo?? Suggestions?
The flickr non-animated version was/is at: Rational Debate (01:59:44) :
http://www.flickr.com/photos/45729162@N07/?saved=1
He’s animated very much like Mann is animated in the “Hide the Decline” spoof video, pumping elbows up and down in a little dance… makes him pretty funny where the still version isn’t anything to bother with. Sorry about that, I didn’t realize before that he wasn’t animated on the flickr upload.
Anyhow, if anyone knows how/where I can upload the animated version, and have him still be animated, please post and let me know. Or if Anthony or moderators are interested, let me know where to send him. :0)
Oh, and re the animated Obama – the file size is quite small, 13kb.
