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.
Hey Jason, Progressive = communism.
And his early work in American Gigilo where he played an A**H***.
“Serenity now, Insanity Later” Looks like Lloyd Braun had his facts right! The left has definitely gone past the “insanity plea”!
You are probably correct.
Wow, he sure did!!
Looks a whole lot better than Jason Alexander does right now
“Seinfeld’s killed more careers than Cecil B. DeMille”
Honestly, I grew bored with the show after the first two seasons. It occured to me it was a show about four a-holes.
Working at the time with a-holes all day, the last thing I wanted to do with my evenings was watch more a-hole’s stumbling through life.
That said, the finale was ‘perfect’...if four years too late.
Guess the ol' career didn't get the boost he was hoping for.
He'd make a great bad guy/alien on one of those cheapy Scifi Channel movies. Put him opposite Bruce Campbell, Stephen Baldwin, and some of those ex-Playboy centerfolds that they hired for their acting skills.

What, no Hamlet?
ROTFL!
Hehe. IIRC, he was just coming off a "Fiddler on the Roof" stage production when Sajak had him on.
Not Shakespheare, though.
Poor george had one good role in his life (well, “Duckman” was pretty funny, but all he did was read the script of a cartoon), and it’s been all downhill from there. The funniest thing is that even back in the Seinfeld days, when he was big, he was still a total ass in every interview. His giant ego made me laugh.
I think Mr. Mandalay should go back to the Import/Export business...
Yeah, this idiot leftist actually thought that he held some power of change...because he’s an actor, I guess, and they are more intelligent, more compassionate and generally better than every one else, you know.
While the rest of us have our lives and families to look upon to see what of value we leave behind as we age, actors only have their movies and TV shows, which most regard as little more than mind-numbing entertainment.
It must be difficult psychologically to see those ‘markers in time’ and to see yourself continually aging and moving further away from the high point of your life and doing nothing worthwhile. It is like the high-school sports star who wasn’t good enough to play at the college level or professionally who can only talk about the glory days.
Why don’t these people just retire and do something with their time and money to truly help others? That goes for Julia Louis Dreyfus or whatever her name is. To her I say: You had your fame. You’ve made your millions, get over yourself, help others, and give someone else the opportunity to become a star.
The NYU film school student who made this will probably get an A.
Hey, isn’t Alexander the one who went to the middle east to solve the Israeli - so-called palestinian conflict?
He did win a contest.
yes, but he cheated
Alexander looks like Hogzilla these days. What, did he gain 100 pounds or what?
I will never watch a Seinfeld episode ever again.
I liked the show, the charactors but now I do not like him!
After seeing this video, I think Jerry would tell him “that’s a shame.”
You know, I always thought Jason Alexander would make a really good Dick Cheney. He doesn’t cut it as Karl Rove though.
The timing of the release just as Rove is retiring renders the video completely irrelevant, which is perfect classic George Costanza.
He never can catch a break, can he?
