The New Boring 767
Pilot to Obama:
“No Mr. President, she probably wouldn’t get very far on algae…not very far at all.”
“I believe I can lie!”
On-board Jetblue cameras show the cockpit moments before the pilot was heard running down the ailes screaming “They’re gonna take us down”! “They’re gonna take us down”!
“Oh yeah, auto-pilot is what I’m best at”
For a 10 million contribution? Sure you can move to Carolina. For 20 you can move to China.
Yessir, you’re here so we can see if someone out to destroy America can fly one of these.
The closed canopy interlock foiled my attempt at using the seat-back eject button.
Not to worry though, the seat-back ejection rail will punch right through it.
“Jesus, take the wheel….”
Regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s oral arguments over Obamacare, CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said, “This still looks like a train wreck for the Obama administration, and it may also be a plane wreck.” Of course it’s a plane wreck. Look who is flying the plane.
“Forget the Volt… When I get out of the Presidency, I’m getting me one of these!”
“Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is your Commander-in-Chief speaking. Please place your trays and seats in the upright position, fasten your seat belts and assume your crash positions. I’m taking this country down, for a hard landing!”
“Of course, we’ll have to make these all-electric too. Just as soon as the Chinese start shipping us a 5,000-mile-long extension cord.”
I think I test-drove that SUV back in the late ’90s.
“No, I’m not qualified to fly a plane or do anything else, but I did sleep in the White House last night.”
No need to teach me the land cause I am crashing this mother into the economy.
Do I have a valid Pilot’s license? Hell, I don’t even have a valid birth certificate!
Another birther. [Sigh]
So that’s what the cockpit of the Death Star looks like.
I’ll wait til it’s dark out to take off because I’m a fly by night president!
While the GOP primary continues to drag on, Obama takes a test spin on his 2012 campaign teleprompter.
As the supreme court decides the fate of Obamacare, Obama tries out one of the “death panels” that is part of the act.
As an aside, there is a story that when Nixon was sending Kissinger to China for negotiations, one time Kissinger decided to sit in the copilot’s seat after the plane landed and it was taxing to the terminal. The Chinese delegation was reputed to ask each other “Did you know Kissinger could fly a jumbo jet?”. This in turn created a great deal of consternation in the Chinese secret service as they had no indication that Kissinger could fly a plane (he couldn’t) and where trying to figure out what part of his life they hadn’t researched when he would have gotten the opportunity to learn. For Obama, a similar incident would likewise cause consternation as people would wonder how it could be that Obama was actually competent at something as complicated as flying a jumbo jet. Of course, the answer would be the same as for Kissinger, it is just an illusion and Obama really isn’t competent.
Really Man, why can’t I push the little red button?
Pilot “heading captain?”
Obama “First socialist country to the right and straight on till morning”
Just another thing the governments taking over
Pilot thought bubble “Give Obama glasses and high waters and he would look just like Steve Urkel, whom unlike Obama, actually was pretty smart.”
Obama “I am telling you, we wont have any trouble landing in Kenya. I am a citizen there”
Obama “Where da beeeatches at?”
Through a new program, the un-employed people of the United states will be sending president Obama on a very special trip. For His leadership role in flying the nation in the wrong direction, when Air Force one reaches 3,000 feet the president will be honored by giving him his own “personal bail-out”. When push comes to shove, how long will it take him to realize his special trip doesn’t include a parachute?
(This entry is not to be viewed as a threat in any way. It is intended to be light hearted humor from a viewpoint of frustrated un-employed people in the USA)
“No Mr. President, you can’t “give it a try”, we’ve all seen what you’ve done to the economy!”
Flying high in his taxi! Flying High!
The thing that’s scary is that he thinks he can fly this bird, just like he thought he could run the country!
I can fly this plane better than the AF 1 pilots can.
It’s a gift.
“Our plans for galactic domination are nearly complete, but first 18 holes at Pebble Beach… “
As has been said before in these caption contests…
He’s only a helmet away from a full Dukakis.
I’ll add:
He’s way past doing a full Carter.
Obama: So what button would I press to pull this out of a tail spin?
Captain: I’m sorry but that can’t be done using auto pilot.
Obama: I was talking about my presidency!
Captain: Yes, I know.
Say…just as an example…how would somebody fly this thing to, oh I dunno, Cuba?
I know it has a lot of gadgets Mr President, but you’re still the biggest knob in the cock-pit.
“Barack Obama, you’ve just destroyed the nation’s economy. How are you going to celebrate?”
“I’m going to bomb Disney World!”
Wow, this thing has may more room under it than the bus.
I’m very sorry that you’re disappointed, Mr. President but
the invitation clearly stated “simulator”, not
“stimulator”.
The yoke is supposed to shake like that, Mr. President. It’s called a “stick shaker”. It’s trying to get your attention. It’s telling you that we’re stalling and if you keep ignoring it, you’re not going to get another “go around”.
So, the head up display gives me all the facts I need to
know – position, heading, whether I’m climbing or diving, stuff like that? Make sure Lew knows to keep that crap off my
prompters, that would just be too confusing…
Yeah, well my presidential platform has two head up displays just for me! (But, do you think you could put one of these yoke thingies on my podium?)
This ain’t Obamas Chevy Volt
Now we know
how New York
got buzzed by Air Force One in April 2009.
That’s right Mr. President, the barn doors ARE closed and they’re gonna stay closed until you’re out of the cockpit.
