No joke – Nicholson touts Clinton

He was the Joker in “Batman,” but actor Jack Nicholson said he wasn’t fooling around when he said in “A Few Good Men” that there was nothing sexier than saluting a woman.

Nicholson, who is backing Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton for president, took his endorsement to the Internet on Saturday with a humorous collection of clips that put his support into the mouths of his most famous film characters.

“And now, folks, it’s time for who do you trust. Hubba, hubba, hubba. Money, money, money,” Nicholson, as the Joker, says in the video titled “Jack and Hill.”

Then he goes on to make it clear he puts his trust in Clinton. The video, which premiered on YouTube and other file-sharing services, was put together with help from director Rob Reiner, said “Jack and Hill” spokesman Yusuf K. Robb.

It was done without the Clinton campaign’s endorsement, Robb said. “They decided to do this as something on their own to assist her campaign,” he said.
