Web sites like this one and blogs make targeted marketing harder to hide than it was even 10 years ago. I do not know why they ran this ad; it may have been the free publicity, as Absolut vodka may not be consumed much by white male middle class conservatives and a big uproar may help sales with groups like homosexuals and assorted “alternative lifestyle” types. It is also possible that the marketing director may have his head firmly planted in the 1980s, when the MSM and the entertainment giants controlled virtually all news and entertainment media.

Yep....if conservatives make up a small part of their business, they could certainly sacrifice us and tick us off to boost their bigger bread and butter percentage.
Besides....I am a very stress-free person. I keep my life simple by not letting things like this get my blood pressure up.
Gosh, some people must stay tense as a knot all day long.
