Bitter after being snubbed for membership in the "Axis of Evil,"
Libya, China, and Syria today announced they had formed the "Axis
of Just as Evil," which they said would be more evil than that
stupid Iran-Iraq-North Korea axis President Bush warned of in his State
of the Union address.
Axis
of Evil members, however, immediately dismissed the new axis as having,
for starters, a really dumb name. "Right. They are Just as Evil...
in their dreams!" declared North Korean leader Kim Jong-il. "Everybody
knows we're the best evils... best at being evil... we're the best."
Diplomats from Syria denied they were jealous over being excluded, although
they conceded they did ask if they could join
the Axis of Evil. "They told us it was full," said Syrian
President Bashar al-Assad. "An Axis can't have more than three
countries," explained Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. "This
is not my rule, it's tradition. In World War II you had Germany, Italy,
and Japan in the evil Axis. So you can only have three, and a secret
handshake. Ours is wicked cool."
THE AXIS PANDEMIC
International reaction to Bush's Axis of Evil declaration was swift,
as within minutes, Italy surrendered. Elsewhere, peer-conscious nations
rushed to gain triumvirate status in what became a game of geopolitical
chairs. Cuba, Sudan, and Serbia said they had formed the Axis of Somewhat
Evil, forcing Somalia to join with Uganda and Myanmar in the Axis of
Occasionally Evil, while Bulgaria, Indonesia and Russia established
the Axis of Not So Much Evil Really As Just Generally Disagreeable.
With the criteria suddenly expanded and all the desirable clubs filling
up, Sierra Leone, El Salvador, and Rwanda applied to be called the Axis
of Countries That Aren't the Worst But Certainly Won't Be Asked to Host
the Olympics; Canada, Mexico, and Australia formed the Axis of Nations
That Are Actually Quite Nice But Secretly Have Nasty Thoughts About
America, while Spain, Scotland, and New Zealand established the Axis
of Countries That Be Allowed to Ask Sheep to Wear Lipstick. "That's
not a threat, really, just something we like to do," said Scottish
Executive First Minister Jack McConnell.
While
wondering if the other nations of the world weren't perhaps making fun
of him, a cautious Bush granted approval for most axes, although he
rejected the establishment of the Axis of Countries Whose Names End
in "Guay," accusing one of its members of filing a false application.
Officials from Paraguay, Uruguay, and Chadguay denied the charges. Israel,
meanwhile, insisted it didn't want to join any Axis, but privately,
world leaders said that's only because no one asked them.
