Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says bin Laden is, and has been holed up in Washington, D.C. (or as we call it here, the Other Washington)

In response to the hints and allusions-- emanating from the U.S. and in an upcoming documentary--that Osama bin Laden is alive and well and living in Iran, Iran's president Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that that the terrorist leader is probably living in in Washington, D.C.

In an interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, The President of Iran responded to a claim in new documentary "Feathered Cocaine" that bin Laden has been living comfortably in Tehran, Iran, for years.  Your question is laughable," Ahmadinejad said with a smile.   "I heard that Osama bin Laden is in Washington, D.C.," he added.

As you know, at any given time, Ahmadinejad will say just about anything.  I realized tonight that Ahmadinejad is not dissimilar to Momar Qaadafi, and the outlandish things he used to say 20 years ago.

Anything's possible, of course, and for all we know, bin Laden could very well be holed up in a supporter's spacious Georgetown townhouse at this very moment, enjoying a dirty Sapphire martini with three olives and a few of his wives.
