Thanks Bon of Babble.
depicting an Arab walking through the desert with a camel
I can see their point -- if it were to be accurate, the Arab would have to be humping a goat.

Instead of complaining they should go back to the desert and enjoy close moments with their camels.

So the towel head is mad because the Arab doesn’t get a spot in the voting... but they won’t let their own women vote back in “their county”?

Should have had a belly dancer kick him in the jewels and run off with the Motley Crue looking guys from Mad Max!

Thanks for posting. Racist, eh?
Wonder if Coke plans to nix it?? If not, expect the Middle East to blow up in riots in 3..2..1..

After all, they’ll riot over a teddy bear named Mohammed.

Sissies. They are too easily offended. We don’t need them here. They aren’t cut out to be Americans.

They follow in the footsteps of their "god". Way too touchy and immature.

My credo “Racists see racism everywhere”


Mine is “Racists see racism where it does not exist.”
