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
Copenhagen a blinding success! Planet all ready cooling down!
DOH!!!
I’d vote for whoever first used the line “Inconvenient truth.” Simple and true.
“Damn! Now THAT is an inconvenient truth.”
“We are not amused”
Pilot to Obama: “wanted to show you what fudging 1 degree looks like so we programmed 1 degree error into our nav aids leaving Copenhangen and here we are: Saskatoon!!!”
It’s Officially a Word – Obaminable http://obaminable.urbanup.com/4449215
Adj. description of an abominable mistake, dishonest, disagreeable or unpleasantry increasingly common from B.H. Obama.

“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’.”
This snow is obviously racist…

[click] “There’s no place like Oz!”
[click] “There’s no place like–aw, hell!”
“So far i’ve only heard Gorebull, now i’ve seen it”
So what? It always snows in D.C. and Alaska. Talk to me when it starts snowing in New Orleans…er…Houston…er…San Diego…er…French Riviera…
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!!!”
(OK – maybe this one’s a little too plausible to be funny…)
This pig can’t be lipstick-ed.
#1. Obama: “hahaha….very funny! ..who painted snow on the outside of the aeroplane!”
#2. “Mr. President….for security reasons we have to blindfold you before leaving the aeroplane!!”
#3. AL Gore:…. “The relationship between warming and snow storms is very complicated, but as you can see, where there is AGW global warming…there is helacious blizzards!!!!”
“Oh I get it now. I’ve been ‘Punked’. Very funny Rohm.”
About the Christmas card list – take off Jones, Mann, Gore …
“See? Hope and change at work!”
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) :

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.
caption: Watts up with that?
climate science is settled.
Yes sir, on the runway
Shutup and get the shovels out
