High-five

Sootyj's already done the George Bush with tits line. Here's how I'd have done it.

JOHN McCAIN IS VISITING GEORGE W. BUSH AT THE OVAL OFFICE.

BUSH
Now, John boy, I think you're gonna be a tip-top Prez. Uncreditable.

McCANN
Incredible.

BUSH
No, I mean it. But I am worried about my legacy...

McCANN
Yeah, me too.

BUSH
... So I've found you a running mate. This person's very right wing, got great hair and speaks without thinking first. Real presidential material.

McCANN
Oh, God, it's Boris Johnson.

BUSH
No, you big silly. It's Sarah Palin from Alaska.

McCAIN
Sarah Palin? Alaska?

BUSH
No need to. I've already asked her. Sarah?

SARAH PALIN WALKS ON

PALIN
Never mind I-raq, look at my rack.

ENDS

Not bad at all, a good zig zag.

But you maybe need one more line in the punchline.

e.g. I'm voting Barrack because.......

Iraq rack line though is good enough to do as a mini sketch of 5 or so lines.

Like the Alaska and I-raq jokes, but the ending is a bit lacklustre... probably because sootyj takes the piss out of any news item before it actually happens. I could have sworn MTW had a McCain high-five joke?

Some excellent lines, though. Maybe a couple of shorter skits as Joel suggests?

Thanks, chaps, will end at rack line.

Yup, that's nice and sharp now.

Good stuff.

But you'll have to re-title it now!

Ah, bugger.

I didn't see the pre-edit version but this one is pretty good.
