Papua New Guinea's leader has dismissed Joe Biden's suggestion that his uncle was eaten by cannibals there as 'loose' talk that does not reflect the US president's feelings for the country.

'Sometimes you have loose moments,' PNG leader James Marape said in an interview after Biden's contentious remarks, adding that the relationship was stronger than 'one blurry moment'.

Biden said last week that his uncle Ambrose Finnegan was shot down over the Pacific during the second World War: '(He) got shot down in an area where there were a lot of cannibals at the time. They never recovered his body.'

Corn-Pop was a bad dude.

Biden couldn’t point to PNG on a map.

Next, Senile will be claiming that his “uncle” was one Michael Rockefeller.

When you have lost New Guinea you’ve lost....

He’s right. Cannibalism was rare and the natives on the island were on our side. They helped is rain horror on the Japanese.

Uncle Bosey, it’s what’s for breakfast.

Biden should clarify. He meant “You know, lots of cannibals around. All those Third World dumps are full of lowlife cretins. Always have been. Not just New Guinea.”

Biden meant this as a compliment. He was only trying to say that the people of New Guinea have good taste in cuisine.

I can picture it now. POTUS Taterhead meeting with the leader of Uganda.

“Hey, you know, my uncle was eaten by people that looked like you. No joke!”

Has loose brained, scrambled eggs. Joe even apologized yet?
Have his mascot Karina JP “splain it to him during his next ice cream, with coco krispies brunch.

Or...

“Hey, you know, my uncle son Beau was eaten by people that looked like you. No joke!”

[Hot Tabasco]

He's just covering up for the dude that ate Uncle Boozie...

[nesnah]

He was from Borneo.

[wildcard_redneck]

The cannibalism always happened “on the other side of the island.”

[ansel12]

Borneo is where my dad was when Peal Harbor was attacked.

[nickcarraway]

This is a terrible allegation. They only eat Rockefeller or better.
