In real life, politicians can be dull and hard to follow. But not on Twitter!

Need a break from following the issues? Follow a fake politician on Twitter instead. These 10 get The Mark's vote:


Stephen Harper: @ThePMSaidSo

Fake as a G20 lake, the PM tweets about Timbits, proroguing, and the census.

Sample tweet:


Barack Obama: @fakeobama

The mock Barack spends a lot of time on Twitters. Maybe he thought the "free world" meant the internet?

Sample tweet:


Michael Ignatieff: @fakeM_Ignatieff

Imitation Iggy may be “smarter than the average bear,” but sometimes he doesn't tweet because he's "just so boring." When he does, it's usually to heckle Harper.

Sample tweet:


Osama Bin Laden: @FakeBinLaden

Deep in his Twitter cave, the spoof Osama munches on roosters, takes jabs at that “naughty Bushy boy," and updates us on his press tour.

Sample tweet:


Sarah Palin @FAKESARAHPALIN

Pseudo Sarah quit governing so she could spend more time on Twitter, where she disses moosewads like her daughter’s fiancé and critics of her language skills also too.

Sample tweet:


Vladimir Putin: @Putin

Pretend Putin is into the “KGB and some other stuff.” But mostly the KGB.

Sample tweet:


Mao Zedong: @MaoZedong

For the late leader, heaven is Louis Vuitton, PayPal dollars, and Foursquare.

Sample tweet:


Kim Jong-il: @KimJongil

The Dear Leader doppelganger likes Bugs Bunny, soccer, and Salt. And guess who’s on his hit list?

Sample tweet:


David Cameron: @Dav1dCameron

One can’t help but chuckle at “the chap with more flash than a camera man, the ultimate hustler.” Nice Burberry baseball cap, mate.

Sample tweet:


George Bush: @TheCoPresident

He may be “dumb as a stick and no plans to change,” but don’t misunderestimate the bogus Bush’s ability to express himself in 140 characters or less.

Sample tweet:
