NOT for political rants please, but all satire welcome.
Choose who you will to go into the theme park for crazy leaders. Foreign, historical, lets fill the park up with your favourite looney leaders or figures of influence. I will begin by putting Colonel Gadaffi in an airfreshed basic tent surrounded by fawning camels.

Hi sunny, okay I'll let those two in but suprised by your choice, you could have had some evil British figure who landed in your good land and tried to turn the country into little England, but I do approve the added electrical implements, possibly the making of a satarist here in you Sunny.

Then when time allows we shall debate the serious in perhaps history, unfortunately every time I try that they die through lack of interest, in pe I indulge only in satire my friend. But it is indeed time to branch out and when I've caught up we shall indulge. I hope.

Most excellent choice Iriene and what a delight it would be to see the moustached one in a theme park cage as an object of ridicule rather than fear. Let the monkeys keep their bananas though, far too good for the likes of Hitler, and be trained to merely throw the empty skins at him.

It was actually inspired by something a British journalist wrote years ago about creating a theme park for mad dictators. Contrary to all popular media coverage about these 'evil' people, he had been fortunate enough to actually meet many of these figures, including Gadaffi' Sadam Hussein, Osama bin Laden,and many others, before they were ever percieved as a threat by other nations, so saw their weaknesses and actually came to the conclusion that most of them were actually barking mad in their own way. He had a famous interview with Gadhaffi, which took place in a tent of course, and during the interview Gadhaffi sat with a straight face trying to look important, whilst how to say it politely, continually emitting noise and very smelly 'farts'.
So the idea of being able to make fun of these characters became something rather uniquely British, to those who appreiated a bit of satire.

Yassou Aunty, I'm on a mission here to introduce an element of satire into these American answers so wonder if the inclusion of pigs is for a particular reason, was there a pig incident concerning Mr W, or perhaps a famed dislike for pigs, pork or bacon to add to our amusement at the inclusion of pigs, or is it just a personal fancy of yours with a wish to see him 'snouted' into the mud.

I think former President Ronald Reagan would be great hanging out with Gadaffi. Do you know that song "Land of Confusion" by Genesis? The video has both of them as muppet in it and it was so funny.

The video of this song was done back in 1986 and it was pretty talking about all the craziness of the time and how we needed a "superman" one part of the song says, "Oh, Superman where are you now?" and they show the muppet Reagan running down an alley trying to put on his "Superman" suit. At the very end it shows Reagan waking up in bed (he had been dreaming that he was the Superman) and being "Confused" and nuking the world. Which is sorta funny because most believe that Reagan was already in full Alzheimer while he was still in office.

I think you know I really like Reagan, but that video was AWESOME! They made fun of pretty much EVERY celebrity who was big at the time too. I love Genesis. Best video ever and the song rocks too.

Good choice there Zeph as using old Ronald as a crowd puller, even better if paired of with his puppet lover of Maggie Thatcher. That refers to the UK programme of Spitting Image where the politicians were turned into remarkably look alike puppets along with the voices to match, don't know if you ever had it over there, extremely satirical. Don't know your song I'm afraid.

Madman Amanidinijad (Iran's wacky despot), Kim Jong Il (N. Korea), Hugo Chavez, and Barack Obama, thy all want to be pals anyway, so we can let them all have a snacktime party in that tent with Kaddaffy.

Oh wasn't Ahmadinejad in "Land of Confusion" as well? Now, that I'm thinking about it, it was the Shaw wasn't it? Maybe I'm in the land of confusion...not enough coffee

I think it was the Ayatolla Khomenie, Madman Amanwholovesjihad wasn't on the political scene at that time, he was still fresh from his holding Americans hostage days. Did you know that he was one of the people who held the Americans hostage back then? Just before he got the job he has now, one of his victims recognized him as one of the captors, others have since confirmed this - apparently there are some pictures.

Oh, and you can have a marionette show with Russia's Medved as star puppet with Vladimir Putin behind an iron curtain pulling the strings!

Jb, must I once again point out that Enoch and Maggie never tied the knot, was there perhaps some passionate affair between them that I missed by not indulging in the gutter press?
(Gawd, remember Edwina and Major, I almost forgot his name then, showing how complely unmemorable he was apart from his forray into Edwina).

Hi jb, good choice indeed. So not to fond of white supermicists I see. Now Hitler would never have allowed himself to be called one of those at all as he hated far to many people who were actually white so best to stick with Aryan supremecist for him, as anyone not of pure Germanic stock were destined for slavery anyway. And after he's excused from the titleship the rest of them tend to sink into unremebered history somewhat.
