Hollywood funny-man Will Ferrell, who starred in memorable flicks like Anchorman and Old School, has recently appeared in a campaign ad for President Obama telling Americans he’d do “anything” to get them to vote.
Those who have seen Anchorman will recognize the style of the video– Ferrell’s exaggerated self-confidence mixed with the absurdity of his statements resembles his character Ron Burgundy.
“I’m not kidding,” Ferrell remarked before proceeding to list all the things he’d be willing to do.
“Hungry? How about a home cooked meal– I hope you like angel hair pasta. You need a guy to help you move a couch? Done. I’ve even got my own van. If you agree to vote in this year’s election, I will personally give you a tattoo– fair warning, I do not know how to draw. I’ll do a dance, just for you.”
After an awkward interlude of Ferrell dancing, the actor continues:
“If you vote I’ll ​eat​ anything you tell me to. Garbage, hair, human toenails, underpants, whatever. I’ll do it. I’m serious, I’ll do anything to get you to vote. I’ll punch myself in the face, I don’t care. Whatever it takes. Just go to the polls on November 6, and vote. Vote Obama.”
Ferrell concludes the ad by catching a football, saying “it’s a slam dunk.”
Watch the entire ad, already being pushed by Obama for America in emails, below:

Nov. 4, 2012 at 8:33amTHE DIFFERENCE between Obummer and Ronmey if you value life. Romney will try to save 8,000 unborn children everyday. Obummer will let 8,000 unborn lives die in hospitals and health clinics across America each day. Are you a lover of life or do you assist in killing the unborn with your vote?

When are liberals going to start helping the poor with their own money? Stupid freakin idiots

Nov. 4, 2012 at 8:03pmI would love to see Will Ferrell GIVE AWAY ALL HIS MONEY, all his houses, cars, everything, his kids toys, make his kids/kid go to public schools and start totally from scratch in THE OBAMA ECONOMY all the while insulting the little people us who pay your salary like you have done for the last four years and lets see if YOU want to vote for Obama again.

Nov. 5, 2012 at 3:23amYou can vote for the Muslim sympathizer or the Mormon. Personally, I’ll take the Mormon. I don’t see Mormons blowing themselves up with bombs. I don’t see Mormons hijacking planes and flying them into buildings. I don’t see Mormons cutting people’s heads off. I don’t see Mormons declaring jihad on Americans. I don’t see Mormons running around beating their chests and chanting some bs in unison. With Obama, you better like Muslims since he sympathizes with them. Obama hates the West as much as the Muslims do and he will work with them to destroy us. Obama has Muslim relatives living in Kenya, so he is going to be friendly to that religion. We got a taste of his Muslim sympathy in this first term (with is reaching out a hand to the Middle East). Wait until he gets reelected and you’ll his true colors. It our choice. Islam or Mormonism.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 12:19amThese communists are crazier than the ones from the past, hopefully for our sakes not quite as evil, but definately dumber and crazier. Then on second thought when I think of Fast and Furious and Benghazi I feel they may be just as evil and of course we now know in their own words they are revengful.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 12:14amI cannot, for the life of me, figure out why ANYONE would vote to continue the present administration. I can’t see why the vote wouldn’t be 99%-1% for Romney.
Everyone knows the country is worse off – as a nation, and as individuals. Anyone who eats knows how much the price of everything at the grocery store has gone up in the past 4 years, how unemployment has gone up, the huge increase in the numbers of people needing foodstamps and welfare. How can ANYONE want 4 more seconds of this, much less 4 years – especially when we have the chance to vote for a brilliant businessman who can actually run a country and make things better for EVERYONE?! This administration has the anti-midas touch, and we’re all paying for it.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 12:50amJust, you said it so well. It’s just ridiculous to elect Obama for another four years. It has been four years of standing at the same place we began at. Nothing has improved, and some things have become worse.
What’s clear is that Barack Obama is not Presidential material. America needs a Leader who isn’t concerned with putting happy faces on third world inhabitants.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 8:02amI don’t think I’ve ever seen this doofus WILL FERRET in anything.
Bollywooders are so stupid.
Same goes for JayZeeeero and BeyondMe—Never bought OR heard their music.
That chika Eva Longborious? I never saw how DESPERATE she was until I caught a glimpse of her at DNC. Brucie Springsteener (who does not pay NJ taxes because he owns 4 llamas or something and ditto for BondJovial who has a bee farm)—never bought a single cd from either idiot. Tom Hanks is now a bloated bloviator and should retire from acting. I think he owns some fancy PRIVATE school in Califorknia.
SO WILL FERRET? Go stick a fork in it.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 12:07amYeah, Will, and when the left has full sway and you choose to do a movie they don’t like, you’ll be shut down: any party willing to target one amendment respects none of them.
How does he justify believing Barack earned a second term?

Nov. 4, 2012 at 12:03amWill Ferrell is an “antics” comedian. He is not funny so he has to resort to zany antics in order to get a laugh. What a hack. The same applies to Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler.
With that being said, there is no reason for any Conservative to ever step foot inside a movie theater again. With every dollar you spend watching their movies/TV shows, reading their newspapers/magazines, or watching their news programs you are indirectly donating money to the Democratic party and making it that much more difficult to salvage the country.

Dont. Thats not a good trade. The unfunny comic has no worth.
Bargain for Pelosi or Reid sticking a weapon in their mouths and pulling the trigger.
THEN you actually get a worthwhile trade that you can be proud of.
