But the teacher is definitely NOT GUILTY!

[kAcknor]

It was. I did too. (A few more times now) ;)

In all this hype has ANYONE noticed that the "Hardees" commercial that this thread is all abort is actually also a Carl's Jr piece and not Hardees?

Newspaper got it wrong.

[DTogo]

Not in my day... :(

Can’t say the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag in school, can’t allow prayer in school, can’t celebrate our cultural holidays in school, promote the theory that we are monkeys in school, can’t discipline bad behavior in school, than what is left but to dance on the desk? What say the union concentrate in the education of our children. Teach them about us (or US) and teach them to learn.

[Mr Rogers]

I despise the teachers unions (which are mostly about money for administrators and nothing to do with helping real teachers), but teachers have enough trouble without this garbage.

And boys don’t need any encouragement to treat girls (or women) as sex objects only. I’ve got too many daughters to find this sort of thing ‘edgy’.

You can always tell a Hardee’s commercial immediately.
It is either about sex or sloppy eating or a combination.

The name may be Hardees. But the motive force are the parent company
that also owns "Carl's Jr.".
The original owner of Carl's Jr. is probably spinning in his
grave over the trashy commercial campaigns run by his successors.
(I heard he was a pretty conservative guy)

if they made this an ad with gay or lesbian overtones....they would have been praised up one side and down the other...

oh the horror, celebrating a sexy woman...what will we do????

[television is just wrong]

I know. it is funny.

I thought the Paris Hilton Carl’s Jr. commercial was in bad taste.

Nah. This one is in bad taste!
