The commercial was ridiculous. It portrayed the two white males as dumb and unsophisticated, especially when they both realized they may have just "kissed" after sharing the candy bar.

There were only 2 commercials I liked. The rest were sophomoric and just plain unfunny. It appears the ad companies aren't running on much talent these days. I also noticed there were no patriotic commercials this year - doesn't Anheuser Busch usually do one?

You think AB or anybody else wants to associate themselves with the war in Iraq? Sure way to lose half of your business, probably more since younger folks are heavier beer drinkers. At least with the Snickers ad, Mars is only risking the 15% of the audience (gay bashers) who probably believe that eating candy is a sin.
