Now that we have all these fancy-wancy computers, it's easy to make funny videos like the one I've placed below, but this particular one was created in the late '80s, and no doubt took a long time to create. It's also one of the most hysterical things I've seen in a long time.
The video is an anti-drug promo with Ronald and Nancy Reagan, creatively edited into a call for more widespread drug use, especially among children. Yes, the video is manipulated to make it appear as if Ron and Nancy are advocates of drug use, but if you pay close attention, you'll also learn how important freedom is to this nation, especially the freedom to have less freedom.
The video is a little over seven minutes long, but trust me, it's worth it to sit through the whole thing. I laughed so hard the people in the apartment next to mine probably think I'm insane.

"...and the cocaine makes me happy." lol
That was a pretty funny, silly and surreal video. Pretty good editing for something done in 1988.

Michael Moore didn't invent the technique, but he certainly did well with it.

lmao so wrong but so funny... "Nancy and I are hooked on heroin," "... and the cocaine makes me happy," and "Vice President Bush smokes marijuana regularaly" were the best lines, among many others.
