‘Bad for Our Brand,’ Madmen Claim
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – Vice President Joe Biden ignited an international incident today when he called the Tea Party “terrorists,” causing the leader of al-Qaeda to demand an apology.
Just moments after Mr. Biden made his controversial remark, al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri appeared in a video to condemn the comment, which the terrorist called “hurtful.”
“I demand that the Vice President take back his offensive comment immediately,” Mr. al-Zawahiri said in the video, broadcast on Al-Jazeera. “It has been very bad for our brand.”
Mr. Biden attempted to clarify his remark later in the day, telling reporters, “I in no way intended to insult the members of al-Qaeda.”
“Both al-Qaeda and the Tea Party tried to destroy the U.S. economy,” Mr. Biden elaborated. “But in fairness to al-Qaeda, the Tea Party came a lot closer.”
