I hope FOX News picks up on this woman's speech and runs with it for days.

I am so disgusted at these American haters taking their pot shots at us. Whether in newpapers, magazines, television or the scum of Hollywood trying to promote their latest movie, it's non stop. FIrst of all, not many people will even hear of this story since the msm won't report it and if they do it will be her lame apology hinting she was forced to do so.
She should thank God America has given her this opportunity to head such a successful company versus herding goats in her own country.
I don't drink soda but I'm emailing my disgust to Pepsi anyway.

Dear pyx,

Please send your missive to PepsiCo's Board of Directors.

They need to see this kind of "regular" American's reaction to the person who is now the face of their company...

I loved it!

I'm sure that it sounded funny on paper (and it really does), but in the delivery, it sucks.

It wasn't funny, spoken or written. You would think that you wouldn't have to tell that to a senior executive of a major corporation. What chafes is that Pepsi and Ms. Nooyi try to tell us that we misunderstood her-- we don't misunderstand her. The problem is, we understand all too well.

We are at war right now and it rankles to have Newsweek and Pepsi executives working for the other side.

I agree with you, she was making an analogy that probably sounded better on paper, then when spoken.

How about a nice glass of ice water and lemon? Can't beat how it quenches thirst and tastes so refreshing.
