Every year at the Jewish holiday of Purim, my friend Rob Kutner--a writer for The Daily Show--puts together a comedy show to raise money for charity. This year, he asked me to make some short films for it: political attack ads featuring Haman (the villain of the story) tearing into Mordachai (the hero).
When you leave the theater, as part of our commonsense anti-piracy policy, you will be assaulted by staff members wielding baseball bats. Enjoy the show!
I got tired of right-wingers saying, “If the media had been as hard on FDR as they are on Bush, we’d have lost World War II.” So I started wondering... What if FDR really was like George W. Bush?
