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
Thank God I wasn’t born in Russia!
“How can there be snow ? I’m sweating…”
I say the clear winner is:
Anthony Watts (09:01:57) :
My caption is:
“Don’t worry Mr. President, it’s rotten snow.
Why did we land in Chicago?
Quick, someone call my doctor! I see white spots before my eyes
“We’ve landed Sir. Back to Hoaxing that Change”
“I said, for the third time, that I will get off the plane when it stops snowing.”
Will someone tell Al Gore to stop following me! “Gore factor”
OK, I had enough. Get eh CIA in. We need to put AL Gore on the top of the hit list. I’m fed up with this “Gore factor”.
“Man, make global warming!”
When I said we would cap the global warming to no more than 2C I didn’t mean we should really reduce our emissions now! It was meant to be a joke.
Axel! I need a good spin for this or we’re going to be stuck! Axel?
The caption is fine as it is. It nicely sums up Kopinwhatever.
“At least it ain’t yellow.”

A snow emergency has been declared ..
They never declare a “hot air” emergency in DC, so why now a “snow job” emergency? I suspect covert skeptic bias; especially given all the hot air and snow jobs in DC.
“No, it’s warming Captain, but not as we know it”
“[snip] Get me that hockeystick bro on the phone – now!”
Maybe that Executive Order I signed in October was a bit much.
mkey, the weather is now, obviously, on a need to know basis only.
I vote for:
Dennis (12:23:14) :
Caption: “I thought they hid the decline!”
Hilarious.
“No, Mr President, your OTHER left…”
“Gee, this weather control sure is hard…”
(this is a reference to a Bush/Cheney spoof that’s been out there since Katrina)
Hey Michelle “get my Hawaiian shirt and board shorts out Ia m leaving this plane in style!”
“Where is the reset button”
Plus 50!? Somebody check that thermometer!
[There are so many good ideas here, why just pick one? How about an animated gif where the caption changes.]
I hate Immelt. I can’t believe the crap I say and do for campaign donations.
Or
If I say it a thousand times, maybe I’ll even convince myself this is because of global warming.
On that note, just dropped in to check out the site and laughed my a$$ off at the 647 comments!!
