GGIR....Seems to me the Pepsi folks themselves show just how far off your impressions are.
Two executives have apologized for her speech. Even they believe it was done wrong.
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?
Within this past week or so we had Newsweek, Pepsi, and even George Lucas in his Star Wars movie, and I, for one, am just getting so fed up that I believe we need to make noise whenever it happens. All these turkeys have eaten crow when the pressure is put on them, because they're wrong and they know it.
Re Star Wars: George Lucas is in synch with Micheal Moore. They are friends. Now the latest movie was written seven years ago, I'm told, and the bad guys are associated with evil capitalistic organizations, etc, and I read here at FR that the leader of this evil capitalistic organization is named "Nute Gunray", a coy play on the names of Newt Gingrich and Ronald Reagan. (I haven't seen the movie yet myself.)
If those folks won't give us a break, why should we give them one? They create the crows, we just make 'em eat them.
Ditto! Ms Nooyi even dissed our neighbor countries in North America when she committed a quintessential "American" gaffe of calling our continent "the United States" during her geopolitical lesson to MBA grads. She demonstrated that she has become what she was warning them not to be.
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.
