I am going to have to Google her whole speech. You say the other folks at Pepsico have apologized for her, too? I have missed that. They must be getting really scared they are going to lose money.

Well, I don't like anyone who is anti-American, especially Americans! I can't stand the Hollywood types who use their "craft" to spew anti-American sentiment throughout the world.

The key issue here is a "US" multinational has gone extra-national and they now tend to NOT hire US management thus the culture will shift to a global nonlegal pablum of non-offensive positions. They clearly just don't see American Beating as offensive anymore! Pepsico is not alone in this take a look at all of the Fortune 500 and note the trend over the last 20 years.

I have lived abroad, mostly in Africa and Asia for much of the past almost 45 years and during that time have watched the erosion of any requirement for even a nominally patriotic attitude and mindset among "representatives" of America [Foreign-er Service-ing] and/or of American companies -- and especially among our [Universally -- as is the case with those who represent Foggy Bottom's bastard offspring of the Communist Party of America-descended brahmanas -- Peter-Principle-operated] corporations.

And if you are in Hong Kong I have no doubt we share disdain toward and disgust at the hostility to and hatred of America expressed in the words and attitudes of the mish-mash of mealy-mouthed Asian, Australasian and Euro-peon foreigners who deliver the endless steam of America-bashing propaganda and mis-and-dis-information spewed out around the clock by the "American" news media.

As often as not if I bother with tv news at all I find the standard America-loathing of the BBC's loony leftist's refreshing and honest by comparison with the obscene bile projectile vomited for its client states by CNN's hate mongers.

There is a link to the entire speech on the pepsi home page. There is also her apology there.

"Axhandle.....Aren't you getting sick and tired of liberal newsmakers (VIPs and media, etc.) just constantly taking gratuitous political shots and insults at the USA and at conservative thought generally?"

No. They are morons. I expect morons to say moronic things. It would be like getting upset about a infant messing his diaper. Come to think of it, both have a lot in common.

lol. Allright, allright, I submit! That is way crossing the line. Besides, Publix has been doing those deals on Coca-Cola too often for me to buy pepsi products. (4 12-packs for $10 plus an additional 3 2-Liters for freewith coupon)

I eat Quaker Oats for health reasons and the generic brand oats is just awful.

We used to get Quaker Oats too, my wife gets organic oats from a Mennonite bulk store. It's cheaper and I don't notice a difference.
