OMG! Guess who Just announced his Candidacy for President under the GOP:


Bin Laden, long time friend to the Bush Family announced his candidacy for President of the U.S. today on the Republican Ticket. "No one understands the War on Terrorism better than me. The GOP Theme is keeping America Safe: Security over Prosperity (unless your a member of the American Royality). NO OTHER REPUBLICAN Candidate Knows how to keep America Safe BETTER THAN ME."

When asked about the other Republican candidates on the ticket. "These guys all talk about security, but not a single one of them has ever held an AKA 47, er, M16 Rifle on the front lines. I single handedly kept the Soviet Union out of Afgahanistan (with a little help from the Reagan Administration). My experience trumps every other candidate on the ticket. I am sure to win."

When asked about being a foreigner gaining the presidency and it not being Constitutional, Bin Laden respondend "The GOP has been single handedly stripping Americans of their Constitutional Rights for the sake of "Security". What is one more Constitutional rule to keep me from keeping America safe? Listen, According to the Republican Party, Americans value safety over EVERYTHING ELSE, especially their Constitutional rights. So, I figure, with all my experience and unique qualifications for keeping America safe, they would surely elect me on the Republican Ticket."

2. Will Orrin Hatch sponsor a bill to make him a US citizen?
Osama could run on a third-party ticket with Bill O'Reilly as the VP candidate.
It could be called the Middle-eastern Moderate Falafel party.

5. Eak An Osama
Bless our corporate media for "screening" his awful, nasty words...keeping the women and children safe. Of course we trust what Wolfie and the others got from the translation and how they're sure to be "fair and balanced" in what they report. :sarcasm:

Ain't it something good old Osama surfaces in another booosh dog and pony show...ready to scare the bejeebers out of every right wing hack and hate show spewer. It's not the problem that Osama's out there, it's how he's still out there and ready to fly airplanes into our heads, force our women to wear burkas and flood the country with mexicans. Be afraid, be very afraid...throw all sense of logic and reason out the window...Osama's on the loose.

Honestly, do you think an "Islamofacist" regime would be any worse than the "Christo-facists" that squat in the Oval office? He wants to destroy "our way of life". Sorry, Osama, Crashcart and his Manchild already did it...you'll have to find another country to jihad against now.

6. Why? Was he caught with a dead hooker or a live boy?
If so, he is eminently qualified.

11. He's also strongly against gay rights and anti-gun control.

He's like a Wahabbiest Reagan.

I was going to say like a terrorist Reagan, but that would be redundant.

13. This would be much funnier if Bin Laden wasn't actually working for the Bushies
(most likely)

That little almost-certain-to-be-a-fact kind of saps some of the ha-ha from teh joke.

22. It makes sense- the last thing he said was about lower taxes
and spoke of a flat 2.5% tax.

17. If he flies to Mexico, he can hitch his campaign bus to a Mexican truck!
NO problem!
But don't you dare try to board a flight with more
than 3 ounces of shampoo...

21. While the I'm trying to be humorous
I'm also trying to get a political point across, that if security ultimately becomes the #1 desire, then we are selling our Constitutional rights to the proverbial devil. And that is something the GOP is willing to do, while the Democrats continue to value the principles of Freedom and Prosperity the country was founded on.

:toast:
