All I can say is, I want my money back for me or my country men, Mr Coke.

A prostitute in frankfurt red light district does not care about the languages and welcomes all languages.

This is not what I fund raise for when I purchase into the blessedness of a product.

Coke has diverted the funds.

"America the Beautiful" in a dozen different forms of noticeably accented English reinforces American cultural unity.

Now that would have been a truly beautiful ad.

The message Coke is sending is simple.

America I not exceptional and any other culture is equivalent, maybe even preferable.

So Americans, get over it and step aside.

I think Shawn Mitchell captures very well what I’ve been thinking but unable to express. Great article.

I don’t like the commercial, ticked me off the minute I saw it. On another thread some freepers were saying they were fine with it or liked it and that liberals were only pretending that any conservatives had a legitimate problem with it, I didn’t agree with them.

But unlike many people on this thread I don’t support consumer boycotts. I would never limit my consumer choices based on the politics of a manufacturer or store. Start playing that game and you’ll end up realizing that to avoid giving money to a liberal corporation you’ll have to move to a farm and produce your own food and clothing and chop wood for heat and absolutely no electronics of any kind.

I’d like to know the political sympathies and voting record of every adult who appeared in the ad, or helped to create it.

I’d like to know if they were all citizens.

I’d like to know if any of the scenes were filmed in a foreign country.

Why would it be filmed in a foreign country? Did you forget we are a nation of immigrants?
