Bud Light Tackles Gender Pay Equality in New Ad
Advertising Age ^ | June 27, 2016. | By E.J. Schultz.

Posted on 06/27/2016 7:24:16 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Fresh off a gay marriage-themed ad, Bud Light is using its marketing budget to spotlight another progressive issue: Equal pay for women.

In a TV spot debuting today, Seth Rogen says "women don't get paid as much as men and that is wrong." Amy Schumer, who is co-starring with him in an ongoing campaign, then chimes in: "And we have to pay more for the same stuff," like cars and drycleaning. The kicker: "Bud Light costs the same no matter if you are a dude or a lady," she says.

In 2011, while drinking Guinness in the pub at the Powerscourt Hotel in Ireland I noticed they had Bud Light. After I asked the manager why the need to have horse urine there he proceeded to let me try every Irish beer that was on tap on the house. My wife and I have exactly the same conversation every time we go for a brew in Fredericksburg, Tx. All the great German and local beer, and some still drink Butt light.

I recall the one thing about Obama’s beer summit that the conservatives and liberals could agree on was dismay over Obama’s choice of beer.

Bud Light is apparently drunk far and wide and a great many who do drink it seeming know they should be drinking something better.

No one in the forums I go to has ever stood up for the “beer”.

It’s not the King of Beers ... it’s the Cleveland of Beers.

Agreed. It’s a really bad campaign. Heavy-handed and unfunny.

[Open on interior of hospital room. A patient is led into the room by nurses]

Announcer: You’ve just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you’re more relaxed than you’ve been in weeks. [Patient climbs into bed] All those childhood traumas magically wiped away, along with most of your personality. Now is the time, time for Spud. [Nurse wheels in bucket with cans of Spud Beer]

Singers: Ohhhhh, Spud!

Announcer: Filled with the full, rich flavor of potatoes. [Patients begin smiling] Spud, the beer brewed for people who can’t taste the difference.

[Patients and nurses open cans of Spud]

Singers:
“When you say Spud, just put your mind on hold.
Do what you’re told, and open a cold,
Refreshing Spud. Just watch your life go by.
No need to try. When you’ve got Spud.” Ohhhhh Spud!”

Announcer: Spud, the beer that made Boise famous.

Maybe they can pressure Hillary into paying the women who work for her the same amount she pays the men.

...and maybe too much of her budget is going to food, as well.

I’m with you. Tattoos are the ULTIMATE wasteful spending. If you waste a nickel on that, you’ve got too much money.

When a transvestite brings a dress to a dry cleaner they get a discount price from what a woman is charged for the same thing?

They’ve got another one that is a thinly-veiled anti-Trump ad. “America was built on immigrants.” “And diversity!” Blah blah blah. Just sell your horse piss and shut up.

“she’s actually boring as hell, what I’ve seen of her”

I agree. I have a rather foul sense of humor. Everyone told me to check her out. I flat out didn’t laugh at any of her skits. It’s like they gave her Sarah Silverman’s joke book and told her to own it.

Liberals love her though. I think they all find her a bore as well, but are too afraid to say it since it has to be some kind of -ism not to like this slob with C-long flapjacks. She’s, what, 35-40 and they’re already aiming straight for her knees and she doesn’t have any kids as far as I know.

Mediocre looks, terrible genes, and no talent .... That and knowing someone is all it takes to make a pig a filthy rich liberal “grrl”. The Dem nominee for POTUS is another example of this phenomena.

she is a no talent hack but she is a devoted propagandist — that is what the left loves her for, the propaganda
