Jack Bauer, Chuck Norris Responsible for Bin Laden Takedown?

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted May 2nd 2011 03:00PM

Finally a good reason for Jack Bauer's '24' exit last spring -- he was busy hunting down Osama Bin Laden. Or at least that's what Twitter's trending topics suggested after news of Bin Laden's death broke late Sunday night.

The fictional counter terrorist agent, played by Kiefer Sutherland, took to Twitter to confirm our suspicions: "Just got back from 'vacationing' in Abottabad," Jack Bauer tweeted.

But does this mean that Bauer is now available to once again get back to his '24' roots? Not exactly, but Sutherland is slated to appear in a TV movie, 'Touch,' in which he'll play father to an autistic, mute son who can predict the future. Although the project is not quite a lateral move for the actor whose name has become synonymous with his fictional character's, it does have an air of intrigue.

But the Obama-Bauer dream team is not a mere duo -- where there's a terrorist to be slain, there's Chuck Norris and hundreds of tweets to confirm it: "Breaking News: Chuck Norris returns from trip to Afghanistan."

Move over Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper, 'The A-Team' just got upstaged.

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." --Washingt*on, D.C., March 13, 2002 George W Bush

You're an idiot. Bush gave up looking and decided to go after Saddam instead. You Republicans are NEVER satisfied; first he made fools of you all by showing he WAS born in Hawaii, now HIS administration found and killed Bin Laden, and he didn't go away on vacation like Bush did after EVERY disaster in his time. President Obama will be remembered for this, while Bush will be remebered for being a moronic hillbilly who thought being President was a real-life video game......

If Ted had a single firing neuron in his brain, he'd realize just how brain dead he is.....

That wimp, Osama Bin Laden hid behind his wife's apron strings. So much for the perception of the Islamic warriors. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!! Mommy, protect me.

Obama is a DOUCHE BAG. That is no joke. Twitter that!

I guess you'd rather have Bin Laden still alive then, huh?

By Ed

Obama is a Sc-mbag that had nothing to do with this operation Go Seals !!

Another idiot...who gave the order to go ahead with the operation? I didn't hear or see Bush doing anything about Bin Laden...just be glad someone did something

By brenda

did u see the body i didnt its another ploy to get the bum back into office maybe john Cena did it you cant see him

By christopherst185

Hey, Has anyone seen the body? How ironic is it that it was buried at sea within 4 hrs? I'm a bit skeptical that he is even dead... where is the proof? Or perhaps he was killed awhile ago and Obama is releasing this info now to help his chances of re-election? Hmm... one must ponder.

Brenda, you are why, as far as education goes why we are now at the bottom of the pile!
Everyone should have a healthy does of skepticism, but either way it goes the POTUS is way smarter then you all. Just look how upset he makes you, while he stays focused and does his job. All the while laughing at how stupid you really are!

To Heart Break Kid - Your just another uneducated and un-informed idiot that would believe ANYTHING if it was a black story. Obama had NOTHING TO DO WITH BIN LADEN'S DEATH. That was in the works for 10 years. You are so stupid. I guess we just waited for Obama to get into office to off this guy. Idiot. It is people like you that are killing this country by electing douche bags like obama for our President.

Bubbles, I thought you had to be put down after MJ died?

By speech

Bubbles - its "Americans" like you that are part of the USA problems - Why dont you and all the radical conservatives you can find do this country a favor and leave?? I would be estatic to raise money for one way tickets to Siberia and I will start the ball rolling with 20.00 - any more donations anyone ?

See there you go giving them to much credit, they will need a map to even find Siberia, duh!

Wow, Majority of you are all morons. Who cares who is in office sitting in a chair, while our SERVICE MEN and WOMEN risked their lives to get this evil man. Those are the individual who deserve the thanks!

By Brenda

This is a president that has taken jobs not save jobs. Michelle I can't believe things Idon't see unlike most it was to quick and no proof and I am not the only one who doesn't believe this. Uneducated hmmm maybe one day you will need a job, I will feel sorry for you and give you one but I doubt. I judge people on their behavior and hold them to their word thats why I pray for a great man to take over soon. I will believe he is dead when there is a body.

I hope the President dont release Bin Ladens death photo - He has nothing more to prove and it may affect children who see it and some adults. and another thing; PAKISTAN CANNOT BE TRUSTED and ties need to be severed

By tony

dosent matter what or who you like it happened on this presidents watch so he therefore will get credit for it,now put that in your pipes and smoke it.
