The main difference between H2O and CO2 (apart from the numerical differences of their specific physical properites such as degree of freedom, thermal capacity, physical mass, etc) in terms of their effects on the atmosphere is that water is capable of condensing into liquid to form clouds and readily and rapidly moves between surface and atmosphere, daily, seasonally, annually and on even greater time scales, but CO2 does not liquify in the biosphere and transfers over mostly long time periods between surface (primarily oceans, seas, etc) and the atmosphere.

Having made that point it becomes necessary to deal with the matter of cloudiness and it's effects because the passing over of a cloud with the consequence of a warmed ocean skin layer is put forward (by Realclimate amongst others) as a «confirmation» of the effect of DLR on the skin layer because clouds transmit more DLR downward just as GHGs do.
