'Seinfeld' Actor Stars In Anti-GOP Video (Even the Left hates it)
Deadline Hollywood ^ | 3 Aug 07 | Nikki Finke

Posted on 08/13/2007 6:40:41 AM PDT by SkyPilot

Borrowing from Harry Potter, this video parody titled "Rovemort And The Sorcerer's Stonewall" and starring Jason Alexander was released today by the Campaign For America's Future. I wish I could say it was clever or fun, but it's so heavy-handed about Rush Limbaugh, Brit Hume, Trent Lott, Mitch McConnell, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney and Dubya that even a liberal like me finds it off-putting. (Surely Hollywood can help progressives put together more subtle and arresting footage than this!) The video is part of a national campaign to "expose the right's strategy of obstructing reform while attacking the 'do-nothing [Democrat-controlled] Congress'", timed to the YearlyKos conference in Chicago, and legislators on Capitol Hill preparing to return to their districts for the summer recess.

I guess this is where Jason Alexander ends up after failing multiple times to get something ‘beyond Seinfeld’.

Too bad there’s not board to interact with lefties -

I’d poke ‘em in the eye with THIS stick: “you aren’t ever going to ‘get’ Rove - he’s retiring, leaving on his OWN TERMS, this fall”.

Hmmm ... I didn’t realize that “George” was that kind of butt-wipe especially after all the non-PC stuff they pulled on the show.

I think most of these folks are the same as women who have sex for money. They do whatever they think will curry favor with those who can further (or in this case resuscitate) their careers. In fact, I think women who have sex for money may be more honest and straightforward.

It was either this movie... or back to hand-modeling.

What would you expect from “Cantstandya”?

Alexander jumped the shark years ago. If it weren’t for the occasional cameo on a Brad Paisley video, he would be completely irrelevant.

Too bad he's such a jerk. He was funny on Seinfeld. Now he looks like an ass.

His career has been reduced to bit parts and celebrity filler.
