The personage we love to hate, nearly as much as John Kerry
The Winners
First: McTrip – “NUKLAHOMA” (McTrip prefaced it with – One for the archives : a rare snap taken during rehearsals of the writer-producer-director-leading male singer, Kim Jong “Johnny†Il, and the cast of the guaranteed runaway [no, runaway even faster] Pyongyang hit musical :- )
Second: Laurence Simon РDespite the protests of his wife and the Central Committee, Kim Jong-Il did what the voices in his head told him, and he plowed under the crops to build a concentration camp for political dissidents. That̢۪s when the ghost of his father came out of the wheat so they could play catch with Harry Truman̢۪s bleached skull.
Third: Confederate Yankee РAnd after 40 years of wandering, it slowly dawned upon the crowd that he really didn̢۪t have a clue where the Promised Land was.
The 
Thursday contest has already started.

Rodneys Bottom of The Barrel
We study Nuclear Science,
We love critical masses,
‘Gotta crazy world leader,
Who wears dark glasses.
Bomb production’s going great,
And the missle’s flying better.We’re refining it right,
High Plutonium Grade,
‘Countryside is so bright,
We Gotta wear shades.
Oh, come now… I didn’t credit the thing because I thought you’d recognize it… It was a clip from onty Python that I thought fit very well indeed…
You are most kind. Thank you.
