This is a pretty big day for the Obama administration, but it’s quite possibly an even BIGGER day for Jay Leno (no it is not). He will inevitably address the death of Osama Bin Laden during his opening monologue on The Jay Leno Show tonight. But how? What will he say? Here are some suggestions:
- “Osama Bin Laden is dead, but Donald Trump still wants to see the death certificate.”
- “Does this mean I get to wear an EXTRA pair of shoes when I go through airport security?”
- “It was reported that after his body was identified, Osama Bin Laden was buried at sea. Now America faces a new enemy: upset fish!”
- “The death of Osama Bin Laden marks the end of a 10 year manhunt. Now the government can turn its attention to other pressing issues, like who shot J.R. and where is the beef?”
- “Osama Bin Laden was found living in a million dollar compound with 15 foot high walls covered in barbed wire. No word on whether or not he had an airplane hangar filled with hundreds of antique cars.”
Lucky for Jay, even if he doesn’t quite nail it tonight, he can (and will) just keep trying for the next 10 years. Replace two or three Monica Lewinsky jokes from each night’s monologue with Osama Bin Laden jokes and keep chipping away at the thing until he’s got it perfect.

“Heh heh… these were actually pretty funny. Good job!”–Mr. Coconuts
what is he drinking from that jug?
Who says he’s drinking from it?
These are almost TOO perfect. Are you actually Jay Leno, Gabe?!
If any Leno writers follow this site (or are, in fact, Gabe), the first one will no doubt be included tonight.
Osama walked into a bar. The Barman asked, why the long face.
Have you heard this? Have you heard about this? They say Osama Bin Laden was shot in the head by a team of Navy SEALS. Apparently, lots of pundits are saying that his fate was SEALED all along.
I didn’t know that Sea World was a secret training facility for teams of deadly SEALS!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
More like Osama Been Laid-to-Rest, amiright??
Osama Bin Laden? More like Osama Be SInkin’!
“More like Osama Bin Laid-off, Like the rest of America, amiright” – PalinLeno
More like Osama Fin Laden (thank you, Colbert)
OHHOHOHOHOHO!
It turned out all these years Bush’s search for Osama relied solely on saying Osama’s name three times into a mirror.
“Osama found through a recent computer hack when his credit card number and billing address was obtained. Thanks Playstation Network!”
Nope. Far too topical for Leno. Maybe shoehorn in a reference to MySpace?
Or Friendster
or a pager
Or long distance charges.
So finally after over ten years of searching, Bin Laden has been found and killed. It can’t be long now until they finally find Waldo.
(rimshot)
At the risk of saying this to a whole bunch of patriots (AKA you guys), is Osama really that big of a problem? I mean, terrorists have been around pretty much forever. It is like the world’s second oldest profession. And sure, it’s mean to knock someone down and fart on their head or blow up their buildings or whatever just because they’re smaller than you/ have different political views. But it also kind of gets you ready for life, you know? The world is always going to be there to knock you down and fart on your head and blow up your buildings, and that’s a lesson that needs to be learned from an early age. It is bad to be a terrorist, but when terrorists get older, most of them STOP being terrorists and start being productive members of society. And those who continue being terrorists, they usually end up in Guantanamo or killed by Navy SEALS, because being a terrorist as an adult becomes an actual crime that is prosecuted. But overall, I don’t think the whole issue is one to get worked up over compared to, say, bullying or something.
Wow, that really would be a terrible Leno joke.
“Ya burnt, facetaco.” – Everyone, apparently
I actually had little problem with his statement, I just saw the opportunity for a cheap, easy joke and took it, as Jay Leno would have.
I was the first one to p\upvote Lawblog, so I guess ya burnt, me!
Pupvotes, you accidentally say?
#obligatory
Pupvote?
“Apparently, US Navy Seals confiscated Osama’s iPod. Can we get a shot of that?
*shows an iPod with Pat Benatar’s ‘Hit Me With Your Best Shot’ on the screen.*
Hey Kevin, apparently they Seals took out Osama by accident. Obama received intelligence that a man with bad hair was bossing people around in a mansion and thought that he was signing an order to take out Trump.
But seriously, Dwayne Johnson, you might know him as The Rock, apparently got news about Osama’s death before the president. Judging by his movie choices, he and Osama must of been having a competition on who could release more bombs on Americans.
Ok. We have a great show tonight. The beautiful Amber Heard is here. Stick around!”
it’s like i’m there….
Oh man. So Great.
Osama Bin Laden was found two short years after President Obama took office. Officials say Bin Laden got tired of hiding underneath the Bush.
“Bin Laden might be dead, but he’s still blowing up my Facebook newsfeed!”
…because Jay Leno uses Facebook.
Unrelated, anyone else really excited to see the Daily Show/Colbert Report tonight?
I’m excited to see the daily show and colbert tonight, guy thanks for asking
All my Friendster testimonials will be about Osama Bin Laden for the next week! How is anybody going to know what a good friendster I am?
I don’t think you guys are catching how hard I’m channeling Jay Leno in this thread. All my jokes are boring, derivative, late, annoying and not even funny at all. I am nailing it!!!
“They were planning to bring him into the US alive, yeah, no it’s true, but, heh, on the flight over he was killed by the airline food.”
That’s just terrible enough to make the cut, too. I’m scared that so many Monsters are on this Jay Leno wavelength.
Nah, that’s too funny.
Teeheeheeheehee!
Soo…who’s going to watch to find out which predictions come true? NOT IT!
The saddest part about this game is that we’ll never end up knowing which terrible jokes Leno decided to use.
Truly the REAL tragedy surrounding Bin Laden’s death.
The only one of us who gets a cheque out of the whole thing should have to do it. (read: Gabe)
Cheque? That spelling is decidedly un-American! YOU CAN’T CELEBRATE TODAY! OR RUN FOR PRESIDENT!
Taking one for the team.
Tonight’s guest:
Paul Walker
Donnie and Marie (hopefully Donnie wears purple socks!!!!. God, I’m old)
Here’s the monologue:
“Looks like President Obama has a new campaign slogan: YES I DID.”
“The good new is that UBL is dead. The bad news is… well, there IS NO BAD NEWS!!!!”
Seals killed him. Sarah Palin said “I didn’t know they could do that. I mean, I’ve seen them at Seaworld juggling balls and…”
McCain, has been that excited since they killed John Wilkes Booth.
Obama’s speech. Eloquent, but restrained. Fake video of him doing backflips after the speech.
Bin Laden got behind on his mansion payments and the bank turned him in.
They went into UBL’s mansion and killed him, so Donald Trump sold his mansion.
Mory Povich did the DNA test.
Shot twice in the face. Dick Cheney may have been involved.
That’s it! Perfunctory and quick.
“Value meal or last meal.”
Royal wedding jokes.
Gas price joke, involving anal rape (wish I were kidding)
Cereal truck spill joke about snap, crackle and pop
Lindsey Lohan teaching acting classes at a homeless shelter-they’re homeless BECAUSE they’re actors.
Delivery of 5lbs of marijuana to an old folks home. Stoner’s must have gotten 5lbs of Metamucil.
10 baggage handlers smuggling dope, and treating the bags well and getting them on the right planes.

Royal Virility Performance brand beer. Makes for an embarassing Super Bowl party.
51 year old woman buying a prostitute for her 81 year old father “beats a bottle of Old Spice”
Mariah Carey twins. Video of them screeching in harmony.
Right back with Paul Walker and Police Blotter!!!
OK, Police Blotter was kind of funny.
Jimmy Fallon also did a Maury DNA joke. Just so you know, he’s not the comic genius we all seemed to think he was.
And, alright, these poor guys just read someone else’s material. I know that. Leno is not the problem. He’s a hard working guy, making a paycheck reading jokes with a four year lifespan. No problemo with that. We’ve all got to put food on our massive self-indulgent car collections.
No. It’s the writers we hate! Lazy, lazy writers. My god, how do I get your jobs? I’m just lazy enough to be brilliant at it.
I’m not going to lie. I’ll never get enough “Dick Cheney shot someone in the face” jokes, even coming from Leno. That was the best news story ever.
“Did you hear about this one? sure! sure! Did you hear about this one?”
Osama’s death happened on the 8th year anniversary of former Pres. Bush’s Mission Accomplished speech…when asked about the coincidence, Bush said, “Go away, I’m hung over.”
Osama Bin Laden’s dead… Have you heard about this? He’s so dead, that the only thing that’s deader than he is, is my studio audience! *a lone cricket is heard chirping in the distance but then it commits suicide and there is only silence*
“Did you hear about this one? Apparently everyone was on Twitter. Were you on Twitter Kevin? No, me neither… [awkward silence] In unrelated news, Monica Lewinsky was seen shopping for blue dresses at the Gap.”
Monica Lewinsky! Hahahahahahahahah!
“So Osama Bin Laden was given a burial at sea. Well, it’s about time! Luca Brasi has been waiting for this pillow fight for far too long.”
May your first upvote be a masculine upvote.
I feel like this is a very subtle .gif and it keeps blinking when I’m not looking and I am very scared.
“You guys hear about this Osama bin Laden guy… Uhhh here eat Doritos!!!” – Jay Leno commercial whore
???????????
Bill Hicks reference
Tip: The humor of an inside joke is that it’s… an inside joke. I give you +1 every time you make a veiled Hicks reference, and a -1 every time you inevitably explain that it’s a Hicks reference. Quit canceling yourself out.

You’re welcome.

“Well, we finally found Osama bin Laden. Next up: Charlie Sheen’s sanity.”
“Word is, they could have shot him sooner, only Kanye West jumped in front of him to make a speech.”
“So, the team that killed Osama was flown in on only two helicopters! Two helicopters! Can you imagine that? I guess they would have sent in more, but they couldn’t afford the gas.”
Osama Bin laden bought a new iPhone recently… and look what happened.
Well come on, downloading the “I’m A Terrorist” app was a sucker move.
“…and to think this happened while NBC was grooming Bin Laden to be my replacement on the Tonight Show. Who’d've guessed?”
Did you hear about Osama bin Laden using his wife as a shield? Apparently the guy that accidentally shot her said she had a nice rack.
“Did you hear about thith Kevin? Did you hear about thith Bin Ladin thing?
