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
‘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”
Andrew
Spector (10:05:15) : “Looks like we just landed in the Twilight Zone….”
OMG, I can’t believe it took me so long to get that!

Good one!
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”
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
oops! Didn’t mean for there to be a racial connotation.
Corrected: ” I thought we left all the flakes in Copenhagen!”
*It’s about time to descent for landing at Washington Intl. Airport now, or?*
Here are my favorites (that are not mine,of course:-)
mac davis (08:42:07) :
“Nothing to see here, the science is settled”
Henry chance (08:53:14) :
Let me be perfectly clear……. Bush left this mess.
HereticFringe (09:26:36) :
“This unprecedented snow is just unprecedented weather and is not to be confused with unprecedented climate change.”
pjotrk (10:49:05) :
“Great! Finally a shovel-ready project!”
Alec Rawls (10:55:43) :
“Whoever came up with ‘climate change’ is a genius.”
And my favorite:
pahoben (10:41:40) :
Hmmm-might be the last good photo op for Crossing The Delaware 2.0
“Look at all those heat flakes falling!”
Oh! I agree! I agree! The thing that belongs in that balloon is stunned, caught in headlights, silence! As in:
(Crickets chirping)
“Yes, Sir, The Chickennns be comin’ home to roost! G-D America!”
Ridiculous request!
How can I compose a caption when I can’t stop laughing?
“Snow, Wonderful Snow!”
Dang! I guess this is what is meant by “poetic justice”!
