'SCARY MOVIE' PRODUCER MAKES CAMPAIGN AD; MOCKS DEMOCRATS
Tue Oct 10 2006 15:13:16 ET

**Exclusive**

The DRUDGE REPORT has obtained an exclusive copy of a "scary" campaign advertisement created by Hollywood producer and director David Zucker that was intended to be used by GOP organizations in the closing weeks of the 2006 campaign.

However, the advertisement was deemed "too hot" by GOP strategists all across Washington, DC who have refused to use it!

http://www.youtube.com/v/7h3GPc_yMCE width=425 height=350 type=application/x-shockwave-flash wmode="transparent">



In the ad, Zucker, producer of SCARY MOVIE 4, recreates former Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's 2000 visit to North Korea. During the visit, Secretary Albright presented North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il with a basketball autographed by former NBA superstar Michael Jordan.

An actress playing Secretary Albright is shown presenting Kim Jong Il with the Michael Jordan basketball, painting the walls of Osama bin Laden's Afghanistan cave and turning a blind eye to suicide bombers. In one scene her skirt rips as she changes the tire of a Middle Eastern dictator's limousine.

One GOP strategist said "jaws dropped" when the ad was first viewed. "Nobody could believe Zucker thought any political organization could use this ad. It makes a point, but it's way over the top."

Zucker is the producer and director of comedies such as "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun." In 2004, Zucker, a longtime Democrat, embraced the Republican Party based on concerns he had about national security issues and voted for President George W. Bush.


swhitebull -  wait til the Democrats cry foul and want a free throw if the Republicans start to use this! It WILL be viewed by many on YouTube.

Devastating comment from one of our bleeding hearts. So what would my age group be again? I'm sure you would have felt right at home at the recent Columbia University pep-rally by some overprivileged little rich kids that were violently denying a speaker from the Minutemen his right to speak freely and without harrassment because they didnt like what he had to say. Sorry, sonny, you're still wet behind the ears. When you grow up a bit, come back and play.

The sad part is that a good deal of what Zucker did is true.
 
I'm sure that if the commercial was bashing Bush, EU might feel differently.

Hey swhitebull i'm glad you posted this- I tried to the other day only I couldn't get the effing link to work.

It's a great add, it speaks volumes. I just wish the republican party would actually run it!

12-14, male, of average intelligence. 
Fond of slapstick humor, simple colors, stereotyped characters, ripping skirts, visual gags, team sports, simplicity and voiceovers.

You'd be surprised just how precise this gets - Zucker was one of the pioneers in the genre.  Airplane, The Naked Gun, and Top Secret were all seminal in demographic targeting.

Well, I think I'll take your word for it on this one, EU...after all, you didn't trot out Keith Olbermann as a credible source, which is a point in your favor.
 
That said, Top Secret is a classic of comedy, and I will brook no argument on it!

Yep   you have me pegged perfectly. I'm in an age group that sees thru pompous pedantic pissants perfectly, and pokes them right in the eye, having dealt with them for many years professionally in a prior life.So your conclusions are not bad for a newbie on these boards to be so perceptive about others - other than you have no clue.  Let's see how good you are at international law as well.
swhitebull - nothing like an alliteration of P's to see how perceptions are prejudiced.
