Subject: Newsflash: Amiright Party International Government Announced
Written By: Kristof Robertson on 05/06/05 at 4:33 am
Dateline: 6th May, 2005
In an event that has rocked the planet, The Amiright Party, led by the charismatic and debonair Kristof Robertson, has taken power in half the world's nations. Kristof, speaking from his bunker in the Swiss Alps, told the gathered world's press, "........MWAHAHAHA!"
The team appointed to overthrow...I mean LEAD the world into a brighter future, was announced today
Kristof Robertson: International Leader And Svengali
2nz: President...Figurehead Only
Arwen: Divine Goddess Of The Brave New World
Stuart McArthur: Minister For Capitalising On National Insecurities
Luke Brattoni: Chief Whip and Executive Assassin
Peter Andersson(K1chyd): Undersecretary For Outrageous Promises
Adam Eccleshall: Minister For Something Very Special That We'll Think Up Later
Johnny D: Secretary For Testosterone
Charlie Decker: Federal Bikini Inspector
Rick Cormier: Minister For Funny Affairs
Ethan Mawyer: Minister For "The Free Ride"
Red Ant: Secretary Of Offence
Spaff: Pope (of course...)
New Member: Steve Kalafut: Chief Spin Doctor and Buyer Of Kegs
And those without parody platforms who made it into government through sheer bravado:
Emiloca: Secretary For International "Affairs" and Risqueness
MooRocca: Vice-President, and sharp as a tack I might add...
Scathe: Minister For Apathy, If He Can Be Bothered
Jeff Reuben: Assistant to the Junior Junior Undersecretary of Suck-ology
Kristof told yet more journalists (from his ice fortress in Siberia); "I encourage everyone...nay, I ORDER everyone to support the Amiright Party, preferably with cash...or else! We have dolphins with lasers strapped to their backs, you know....."

* gasp * that photo of me is uncanny ( it's been ages since I wore that powder blue suit - although I look quite dashing in it - I'm sure the Salvos'll have it somewhere)
why do I get the feeling that James Bond is about to arrive, caress Kristof's ego into revealing details of his dastardly plans for world domination, gadget his way out of an ingenious certain death while Kristof's back is turned, and open the floodgates for his uniformed armies of good to abseil down the walls of the ice fortress and pick us off one by one
maybe it's because we've all become henchmen for a VERY BAD MAN!

I would just like to state on the record that I have been dry as a bone ever since I saw Ethan naked and Stuart with clothes on. Also, that's an out-dated photo of me; some more of my teeth have grown in since then.
Also as part of my 'Figurehead Only' duties, I will respond to each parody listed. I will form a 'Coalition of the Willing to Review Parodies' over the next several months and all of the parodies listed should be in the process of being reviewed long before 2006.

Oh, you got me. That is truly offensive. I will now appoint myself Executioner of the State ( as I originally jokingly suggested ) and start with you. ;D
To suggest that I am Michelle Bolthead is the lowest thing you can do to me.
As my postion requires, I will criticize you for even posting a picture of that on the Internet, as it is now illegal to play, display, parody or even remember s/he.
Besides, *that* thing you posted isn't as good as I am. He isn't even in the peanut gallery, more like peanut shell fragments that get caught under the shoes of the people in the peanut gallery.
I do suppose you have a valid point after all. Michael Bolton is offensive to all, as was my parody. Aside from that fact and that we both breath air to survive, we have NOTHING in common.
I won't give you a drive-by 111 though ( seriously tempted to but I won't ), the contest is over. :)
PS- No need to parody Van Halen's/The Kinks " You Really Got Me " except to put it like this :YOU REALLY GOT ME !!

NEWSFLASH! NEWSFLASH! NEWSFALSE! NEWSFLASH!
According to the first unofficial poll here in Sweden the International AmIright Party and its leader Kristof Robertsson has already, after less than a week, achieved a recognition factor of 0,000’000’47 %.
In terms of popularity that puts us just slightly behind Clostridium Difficele, Botulism and Preparation H Prescriptions, but already way ahead in front of those ruling Socialist Party officials that during the last election managed to talk Alzheimerized, comatosed and even some newly dead elderly into letting them vote for them by proxy.
Considering we mainly address the stock of living voters (we do that, don’t we Kristof?) the conclusion is clear: We got the wind in our backs and we’re blowing up an upwards tangent at the speed of binary updates. See you all at the first cabinet meeting!

On a totally serious note: I've been on a writing roll this past weekend and I would like to tell all of you that I have really been inspired by this subject and reading all the parodies the rest of you have written on it. After taking in those I ended up going back to "yesterday" to see if I could heave out even more outrageous promises as good as the first bunch. Not once, but twice!!! :)

2nz York
Ashkicksassippi

Love the lists but I think MooRocca would be better as Mel-hi-e ( for Hawaii ).
You forgot a few though. DAK should be South DAKota while Guy DiRito would be North DiRito ( or maybe the other way around, not sure ).
Not sure about California, but Malcolmfornia might be better seeing as he has 1500+ parodies. Spaff can have New Mexico, called New Spaffico, fitting since Area 51 is there.-Spaff is not from this planet as many have suggested.
Although not a state, William Tong should get Washington, District of Columbia. It would have the same initials but be called Williamtong, Dumping on Conservatives. Especially fitting since given his parody content.
I submit this: Floreda ;D ;D

There was a thread which I cannot find ATM on inthe00s.com by GWBush04 on the state mottos and I elaborated in great detail why Virigina's motto ( we have more than one, more like 10 ) would make you never want to move here.
Besides, as Secretary of OFense and the fact that Virginia is my native state I have full power to criticize it.
If you need a similar sounding name perhaps the Virgin Islands. Not a state but better than VA.

And now, in a rare public appearance, a message from your Vice President:
(barely audible over the live band and raucous party-goers -- strobe lights illuminate the Veeps face through a purple haze that's billowing from the bunker, below... making her even more scary looking than Cheney ever looked.)
  "My fellow Amirighticans... I have poked my head out of the bunker to let you know that I am humbled and honored by Kristof's decision to rename Iowa,  MooRoccaowa and that I lend my full, unbending, blind support to his renaming efforts."
We're watching now as the Vice President is pulled back into the bunker by several pairs of hands... and as the hatch is pulled shut, the night falls silent, once again, leaving us to wonder when or if she'll emerge again.  It's been an exciting night here in the undisclosed remote location we'll be shot in the head for revealing.  We now return you to your regular threading, in progress.
