John Cleese is the purported author of the Declaration of Revocation, a missive directed at the people of the United States. With Cleese harboring possible ambitions to run as mayor of Santa Barbara, it's very possible that Cleese may have momentarily merged his comedy with his politics. However, at present, there's no conclusive evidence that Cleese wrote this. (via Tom)

One ex-parrot's humble opinion ...
