Mock the Dummy

""Release the birth certificate!"

- Pretty much every MTD episode ever.

Mock the Dummy is a YouTube show that parodies conservative/right wing politics and pundits with dummies.

It can be found here.


 * Acting for Two: The creator seems to have a limited supply of dummies and reuses the same dummy for a myriad of different characters. Also, they're also voiced by the same person.
 * Catch Phrase: Oh, so many...
 * "Release the birth certificate!" and "Validate the birth certificate!"
 * "YIPPEE!"/"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!"
 * "RIGHT!"
 * Caught Up in the Rapture: In "When Dummies Get Called Home."
 * Cure Your Gays: Invoked in "How Dummies Sell Their Boehner." Marcus Bachmann Dummy: "I just want to watch Boner." Michelle Bachmann Dummy: "MARCUS! Pray it AWAY!"
 * Demonic Dummy: Though not in the usual sense, since every character is a dummy. A video that parodies The Ring has a Samara!Michelle Bachmann!dummy.

 * Drunk with Power: Sometimes literally.
 * The Fundamentalist: Of the Christian variety.

 * Orwellian Editor: "Texas, please re-write the Tea Party history soon. I mean, let's face it: it makes us look like... dummies."
