Borowitz: Biden Compares Tea Party to Terrorists; Al-Qaeda Demands Apology

[Contrary1]

'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.”

4. My question is...

What are we gonna do about it?

Chimpy spent trillions enriching his war-profiteer buddies going after a pretend enemy in a pretend war. We have an enemy within our own borders who is wreaking far greater damage, destroying far more lives, and we can't lift a finger against them?

What's wrong with this picture?

Seems like it's high time we reminded the military fatheads that they're sworn to defend against enemies "foreign AND DOMESTIC." They made up a foreign enemy to go after so why not actually employ them profitably and sic them on the REAL domestic enemy?
