Just imagine the roles reversed, so that it would be a big joke when two whites knocked out a black woman “by accident.”

Lee waits on a daily basis to be offended. She waits for it.

I thought it was one of the few funny ones. Too bad Jackson Lee has no sense of humor. How’s she on the State Farm commercials where the African-American woman wishes she had a hunk for a hubby (by ‘singing’ the State Farm jingle), gets him and then gets mad when he does the same?

Or does her memory not go back that far?

I’m glad old Sheila is on top of the critical issues facing this nation.

This stupid b*tch would find racism in an oreo cookie.

I found it demeaning to white women

It was funny. Not quite as good as Roseanne Barr, or whoever that was, getting zonked by a log, but it was good.

I wouldn’t call it demeaning. I think I’d use the term Assault and Battery.

Ms. Jackson-Lee is correct about the commercial not being the least bit funny, though.

African-American history month

I thought it was black history month.

This particular ad somehow reminded me of Michelle and Barack....and how Michelle is always giving him grief for what he eats.

Racist? no
Sexist? no
Demeaning? no
Somewhat violent? ok
Typical of married couples (no matter what race)? Yeh..I can see it.

Once again, another lib’s feelings are hurt....lets regulate.

Some people live just to get their knickers twisted. Sounds like she is one of them. Since she thought the commercial was in bad taste for February’s Black History Month... would it have been funny in March? Just a thought.

This lady needs to slow down and relax a mite. Maybe have a Pepsi?

The only part that bothered me was that they ran away instead of helping the victim up and making sure she was ok. There can be humorous accidents resulting from your actions, but you need to take responsibility for them too.

I took away, hit white biatch with soda can in head and run to avoid the situation. Nice message if you're going to worry about the societal consequences of pepsi commercials.

Pretty obvious we haven’t gotten to a ‘post racial’ society.

But I’m also wondering if Ms. Lee isn’t also suffering from and covering over the widely known anger of black women at black men who show any perceived attraction for white women.

I thought the ad was titled “It’s Funny to Attack White People”

You mean that wasn’t supposed to represent Michelle Obama?

Isn’t she the one who wanted “African-American” names for hurricanes?..........

There is more to this commercial. Much more.

The whole ‘concept’ is that the Black Guy was making ‘poor food choices’ and the Black Woman kept correcting his eating habits.

Sound like anyone we know? The blonde was cast waaay too young. If older and chubbier...’Me!chelle’ tossing the can at ‘Hillary.’

I can play the SJL game too!
