As the 2012 election season heats up, so does the unavoidable bombardment of campaign ads assaulting your brain on an hourly basis. While most of these ads have been fairly straight-forward (and, let’s face it – boring) this heartwarming video – featuring uber-celeb and kangol hat-enthusiast Samuel L. Jackson – succeeds in raising the bar.
Did that soon-to-be-shtupped bubbie look familiar? Could it be Helen Siff – A.K.A. You Don’t Mess With The Zohan‘s Mrs. Skitzer? Given the video’s origin with the Jewish Council for Education & Research, it seems entirely possible.
And who, you might ask, is the JCER? They’re none other than the brains behind Sarah Silverman’s 2008’s Great Schlep and this years voter registration follow up. A federal SuperPAC, the JCER was
“…created to develop and disseminate information to voters in the United States around issues of concern to the Jewish community.”
In other words – to wake people the fuck up. For democracy.
