'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!

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.

It is brilliant.

The RNC is about 20 years behind on advertising, so they are more comfortable with the sappy, wimpy pablum put to elevator music.

They are fools.

This is humorous, attention getting and guess what? It is getting more press than ANY ad the RNC has produced in a decade.

I guess they are so busy going on defense, that they perceive anything else as.....offensive. Too bad they don't know that going on offense is a good thing. :)

you gotta understand the "new media." you officially distance yourself from the racy stuff, knowing full well it's going to get full play in the "underground." All the more so because you say you "don't approve."

At first, I was wondering how we can count on Republicans to fight terrorism when they won't even fight the 'rats. Then I remembered that we use SpecOps and other covert ways of neutralizing an enemy. Putting this into the New Media is brilliant. The Pajamhudeen are fighting another battle and winning.

LMAO! Mine as well!

The wife still give me dirty looks if Staying Alive comes on and I start doing the 'knife in the back' dance moves. ;)

Amazing what gets a reaction here.

Old Ben can expound brilliantly (he thinks) on history or politcs and get nary a response.

But cast an aspersion on such profound cinematic achievements as "Scary Movie"?


Katy bar the door!

Hope it's funnier than his movies....

[yooling]

There's an anti Leiberman campaign ad right there on the opening page. I really want to know what the difference is from one campaign ad to the next....(That was rhetorical folks)

Pretty good market penetration for "free"... And everyone who viewed it chose to do so, so we're talking about viewers who are at least quasi-interested in politics, most of them presumably likely voters...

And, by the way, the video would be #2 on the Most Viewed Today list, IF YouTube wasn't censoring it from that list.

[phillyfanatic]

Absolutely. Use the ads nation-wide. The GOP must use Vernon Robinson's campaign agents!

Thanks for those links! :)

This seems too obscure for the great unwashed. You have to be somewhat of a political junky to understand it. Show this to the average schmuck and he won't understand who the fat lady in blue is, why the chinese guy picked up the assault rifle, or why the fat lady has a paint roller in the background of the terrorist video.

The keystone of propaganda is that the medium does the influencing, regardless of who says they "approve" of the message.

Ding, ding, ding ... we have a winner.

Don Pardo, tell him what he's won.

What we need is the video in WMV or AVI format so we can e-mail it to the entire world.
