WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) October 6, 2010 – In a three-way swap that may be unprecedented in U.S. history, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is set to become Vice President of the United States, Vice President Joe Biden will become President of Afghanistan, and Afghan President Hamid Karzai will be traded to the Minnesota Vikings.
When asked if the complicated swap might confuse voters in advance of the midterm elections, the President said, “I certainly hope so.”
While many in official Washington were trying to make sense of the stunning announcement, former President Bill Clinton gave the three-way sway a thumbs-up: “Everything about the phrase ‘three-way swap’ appeals to me.”
Mr. Woodward said he had more inside information about the deal, “but I’m writing about it in a new book, which will be out later this week.”
Reached at the Vikings’ practice facility, Minnesota quarterback Brett Favre said he was “blown away” by the news: “I actually retired this morning, but this changes everything.”
There is nothing I could possibly add to that.
