| Hi, I'm Barack Obama, a United States Senator. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| And I'm Osama bin Laden, a terrorist leader. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| We're here today because a number of media types have been mixing up our names. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yeah. We'd like to point out some ways of keeping us separated in your minds. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| For one thing, it's pretty damned easy to find me. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Another thing is we look nothing alike. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| I'm a Muslim and he's a Christian. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| I'm a UNITED STATES SENATOR, and he gets his buddies to fly planes into our buildings. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| And you've had seven years to learn my face, twenty if you've been paying attention, but Obama here's been in the public eye for five years. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| I don't think they're getting it. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yeah. We're losing the "wouldn't have either of them marrying our daughter" crowd. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Look, people. My last name is Obama. His first name is Osama! | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| I think that's too subtle. Those are the names we're known by in the American press. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Hm. Well, I've got a B in my name, you've got an S. If we work out an association with the letters and ourselves... | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Hey, you've got two B's. Barack Obama. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yeah! Would you mind holding one for the rest of your public career? | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ladies and Gentlemen, Obama and Osama have agreed on a mnemonic device to help us keep their names straight. Gentlemen?

| Hey, what'd you ever do about your Hussein problem? | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| But he's dead. You really think... | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| It is the American media we're talking about here. | |
