From the Writers of The Daily Show: How McCain Will Get Osama

POSTED BY: TheInDecider

Overheard in the writers room: In Tuesday night's presidential debate, John McCain made the bold claim that he knew "how to get Osama." A few ways he might do it:

* "Craigslist. I'll put up an ad: W-4-Bin Laden. I'm not a woman, but he doesn't know that. It's foolproof."

* "I'm gonna make him a mix tape! And if that doesn't work, I'll stand outside his cave, holding a boombox over my head, playing a Peter Gabriel song. He won't be able to resist!"

* "Cheese! Terrorists can't resist cheese! Gonna put some in a trap. When he comes out of his little hidey-hole…snap! Break his terrorist neck. And, just in case he's still alive, we'll drown him in a bucket."

* "I'm gonna put a roast beef sandwich in the road, with a sign that says 'sandwich.' Then I'm gonna send away to Acme for a catapult. And if that doesn't work, my rocket-powered roller skates will."

* "I'm gonna dress up as a sexy, female terrorist, hike my skirt up a little bit. And when Osama stops his car — bam! It's already too late.

  1. McCain will announce to the world that he has a spot in his cabinet for a Muslim extremist, preferrably Sunni, so that the US can understand "the needs of terrorists worldwide". Candidates should send resumes with current address along with undated video tapes for consideration.

  2. @31charlie – If John McCain knows something that others do not know about how to find and capture Osama bin Laden, then he is obliged to tell us now, not after he's elected. It would be against his oath of office (text reprinted below) to be holding back on us. If the "how" to do it is something generally known in the military, then it doesn't matter if the President knows or not. It all smells of Nixon's secret plan for withdrawal.

    Oath of office, US Senate: I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

  3. He's going to set out a great big football-field-sized plate of hummus, with a bear trap in the middle.

  4. Insert CIA spies into all Starbucks in the Pakistani Tribal Regions. They'll have Obama totally nailed the first time he comes in for a double latte.

  5. TDS should take on the absurdity of the link between Bill Ayers and Obama. Obama was 8 yr old when the weathermen were in business.

    You should have a skit where the weathermen are planning their activities and an young black kid keeps interrupting their planning with a request for an ice cream cone. The weathermen can tell the kid to pay attention because 40 years in the future when he is running for president some grumpy old man will accuse Obama of planning all the attacks.

  7. uh, okay, I'm going to pretend I understood that, and reiterate my point: John McCain has an obligation to get bin Laden – right now!! He made an oath to protect and defend the Constitution etc. If he knows something that we don't he should hie his ass down to the Pentagon and say, "My friends, here is how to get bin Laden right now…." If he knows and doesn't do this, then he is breaking his oath of office. If he doesn't know, then he's blowing schweet schmoke up our asses. Saying "I know and you don't, but you don't get to find out nor will I act on it until you elect me President" is what we called back in the old neighborhood, in a word, bullshit.
