Original Coke is far better anyway, if I drank Pepsi I could join the boycott, but, alas...

"“Over the years I have witnessed and advised others how a thoughtless gesture or comment can hurt good caring people."

This was a prepared speech. Not some off-the-cuff comment.

She said that the world regards Americans as boorish and therefore, they (Americans) must exercise caution and engender respect among the world.

Since when does the middle finger kiss butt? And aren't there 7 continents? What happened - did we lose a few?

Not good enough. The problem is, she has revealed herself for who she is, an America-hating third worlder who came here, did well, and now spits in our face, telling us we are at fault for the world disliking us. Well, if soft drinks are the fingers on my hand, Pepsi is now my middle finger.

Well I guess she made it plain where Pepsi stands in regards to world politics. I guess also, that Pepsi will know where I stand in regards to world politics.

I don't buy the apology and I certainly won't buy pepsi. Pepsi has got to dump her.

". . .has tendered a formal apology. . . ."

Think she needs to tender a formal resignation.

Where's the CEO? I hear he's a decorated U.S. Marine.

As their web site says, "PepsiCo has hundreds of brands. These are some of the best known."

Anti American retoric is "de rigeur" at any college graduation these days. My son graduated from Vassar College five years ago. I had to sit through 2 hours of Susan Sontag as the keynote speaker. Thankfully a fair portion of the audience booed during her diatribe. I guess some were upset and perhaps did not know that their education dollars had gone to support such tripe.

I am already walking on my tip-toes, waving EU flag, can I have some respect now? Plueeeze!

Note to non americans: we are too busy, we have too much fun to care what you morones think or care about amount of your "respect".

Indra Nooyi, like many other globalists, believes that those folks who disagree with their perspective or who are wounded by their Anti-American remarks are either too feeble minded or too ignorant to understand the intention of their remarks. Oh, Ms Nooyi, we understand perfectly.
No where in her response to American outrage did she say that what she said about the United States was factually incorrect. She has not taken back her remarks in any real way.

She is not intelligent enough to know that she has just bitten the hand that feeds her. Americans are forgiving, but far from stupid.

She needs to be fired immediately.

Not nearly.

This reminds me of that old joke about the ideal world, where:

Englishmen are the policemen.

French are the cooks.

Germans are the businessmen.

Swiss are the bankers.

And the Italians are the lovers.

Let's add that naturalized-American, arrogant, over-educated, Indian-born intellectuals are the pricks.

Run a commercial with Nooyi doing a Chris Farley, slapping her forehead and going "STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!"

One thing I don't understand is why we aren't rioting, destroying our own mosques and killing each other over this outrage.

We have so much to learn from our blood thirsty Islamo-Fascist brethren of the Religion of Peace.
