FakeKevinRudd Twitter = AMAZING

This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages.

If you’re not all the way (the way) convinced of the entertainment value of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s new Twitter account, you may prefer to follow FakeKevinRudd.

I’ll let spunky reader Erin, who gave me the heads up about FakeKevinRudd, tell you more.

I was mourning the post-election retirement of twitter’s FakeSarahPalin and FakeJohnMcCain when someone alerted me to the presence of FakeKevinRudd who came on the twitter scene shortly after the real Kevin Rudd.

I wonder what low-level, coffee-fetching lackey got promoted to maintaining KRudd’s twitter page. I’ll bet whomever is doing FakeKevinRudd is having way more fun. I just wish he would update more often.

And you know what? FakeKevinRudd is hilarious. Some highlights after the jump!

&middot Thanks to everyone in working families for adding me on Twitter. (working families) (working families)

&middot What’s Kochie like? Well, he’s just like he is on TV. Total fuckwit.

&middot Oddly, when you look behind the paintings at the Lodge, there’s a lot of angry drawings of cocks. Keating’s handiwork, I suspect

&middot In Queensland frowning meaningfully at destruction. This is my ‘concerned empathy’ frown, not my ‘worried’ frown. Saving that for budget.

&middot No @mafiapixie, we do not have a War on Storm Damage. But my government is tough on Storm Damage and tough on the Causes of Storm Damage

Genius. Are fake Twitter accounts of famous folk the new fake blogs?

Compare the above Twittered gold with the real Kevin Rudd’s updates.

&middot Today I’ve had a series of meetings regarding the Global Financial Crisis.

&middot The storms have done terrible damage in Brisbane but I’m heartened by the great work of the emergency services.

Sorry, Real Kevin Rudd, but I think I know who I’ll be following.
