'Airplane' Director David Zucker Lampoons Kerry's Waffling with New Ad; Noted Filmmaker Injects Humor into Issues Debate
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Club for Growth.Net, one of the nation's leading political advocacy organizations, today unveiled a new national television ad, which ridicules John Kerry's indecisiveness on many policy issues.
"John Kerry's indecisiveness and flip-flopping are no laughing matter-that is until we teamed up with Hollywood hit maker David Zucker," said Club for Growth.Net president Stephen Moore. "David, whose credits include the blockbuster comedies "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun," has found a way to work his movie magic to create the funniest and most devastating ad this year. This ad cuts right to the chase and shows that there are consequences for not being able to make up one's mind."
"I was really a liberal Democrat until 9/11," said Zucker. "There is no question in my mind that President Bush is doing a great job fighting the war on terror. We can't trust Kerry to do that. I wanted to do something, but since no one was asking me to make policy speeches I made this ad."
There's nothing wrong with making a decision and then changing your mind," the announcer says. "But if you never commit to what you believe in, who will ever commit to you? Onscreen a groom at his wedding bypasses his bride to romantically kiss the maid of honor.
John Kerry has changed his mind on all these important issues. Onscreen John Kerry's arms go up and down while the issues on which John Kerry has been indecisive appear including: Iraq, the Patriot Act, and $87 million for U.S. troops in Iraq.
"Now there's nothing wrong with a little indecision as long as your job doesn't involve any responsibility," the announcer continues. Onscreen a bomb squad member can't decide which wire to cut to defuse the bomb. He then runs away and other squad members follow him as the bomb explodes.
"John Kerry has changed his mind time and time again. If you thought you could trust John Kerry, you may want to change your mind."
The television ad, paid for by Club for Growth.Net, will begin running later in the week nationwide on cable news channels. The ad was written and directed by David Zucker. All of the actors in the ad donated their time.
Is there a link to the clip?
Striker! Striker! Striker!
"Surely, you can be serious?"
Another example of how 9/11 has awoken some from a liberal slumber.

Rapunzel Rapunzel!!!
Yeah, is there a link to the clip? Can't wait to see it. Zucker has got brass ones for doing this.
I saw this clip on Fox News this morning - absolutely bloody hilarious, especially the scene at the wedding where the groom starts changing his mind about his bride every 2 minutes.
