[Maw Kettle]

2. I just said to my youngest son, "well, that'll piss off some Republicans."

[TDale313]

[jberryhill]

3. It's a sickness

[aristocles]

4. Now in answer to an earlier post here...

"Who watches the Super Bowl?"

[erpowers]

When I saw the commerical I thought it was going to piss off some people.

[A HERETIC I AM]

15. OK...I did catch that.

Looking over my shoulder from the kitchen. I thought "That's nice. What a lovely sentiment" and didn't give it another thought.

So...what I thought was a lovely sentiment set off a bunch of nitwits?


Typical.

[Skip Intro]

[Drunken Irishman]

10. Oh! And a gay couple at the end too.

[Bodhi BloodWave]

14. youtube clip for those who want to see it

Personally most ads tends to irritate me for various reasons, but this one i actually liked

[Chorophyll]

20. Thanks! I just gave it a thumbs-up on Youtube.

What kind of twisted, miserable person would you have to be to find offense here? It boggles the mind.

[Quantess]

24. Why would anyone break a sweat over that?

I mean, so what?! How pathetic can people be, to get offended at that? The mind boggles.

[VanillaRhapsody]

11. MSNBC got off the bandwagon....

should have hung on to stick some more fingers in the eye....now Phil Gingrey just looks stupid!

[aristocles]

12. Coke's key executives are furriners

Dont't cha know.

[Southpaw07]

I just sent them an email saying I will not buy coca cola again. I don’t drink soda but I bought it for my grown daughter. She will now drink Pepsi.

This is the United States of America, the Super Bowl an American game .......WTF was that junk?

[Bodhi BloodWave]

16. ya know

looking at the first freeper post there: if she is his 'grown daughter' shouldn't/wouldn't she be able to decide for herself what kind of soda she wants to drink >.>

i can see it now, Exit148: hey daughter, i know you wanted cola but their company made an ad that was warm, caring and inclusive so your drinking pepsi from now on, is that clear

[Cha]

17. The Reality of America not some

racist homophobic rw asshole's version.

[Liberal Veteran]

18. Someone on YouTube said: My Anthem is sung in English

Who is going to tell him that America the Beautiful isn't the national anthem?

[Chorophyll]

21. Their ignorance knows no bounds.

[Rhythm]

34. I saw the same stupidity in countless posts on Coke's FB page

Amazing that the people complaining the loudest have not only the worst spelling and grammar imaginable, but also don't seem to know that "America the Beautiful" is NOT the "Star Spangled Banner"...

Just because you sing a song at a baseball game, it does NOT make it the 'national anthem'...
Otherwise, ours would have been "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" a while ago...

[rurallib]

19. you know- considering Coke is Georgia based and practically

a religion in the South, this commercial was gutsy on their part.

[AngryOldDem]

22. I knew that would make their heads explode. n/t

[Zo Zig]

23. But...

Fuck head Phil at Msnbc had to kiss Rinse Penis Repeats ass.
Say it ain't so.

[bluestate10]

29. The weak kidney-ed Phil has to stop firing people for pointing out how much of assholes

republicans and the right wing are, or he will destroy MSNBC. The asshole needs to grow a pair and tell people like Rinse Penis to fuck off.

[bluestate10]

25. Let those Fucks complain. They are impotent. America is changing for good, and

for the better. Finally we are reaching the point where we use the best talents of ALL of our citizens. Let the primitive assholes complain from the shitty perches, they can't to shit to darken a bright future for this country.

[lostincalifornia]

26. President of msnbc just came out and apologized for Coke

[bluestate10]

31. It is about people of every race, ethnic group, gender, sexual origin and age singing

about the joys of Coca-Cola in different languages. All of the people were American citizens. That racists would be complaining shows how empty those loser bastards are.

[CatholicEdHead]

28. They are probably also out for the Cherrios commercial

I will never understand this bigotry.

[JeffHead]

32. This pretty much sums it up.

[Rhythm]

35. That about covers it...

Thank you, Jeff!


And welcome to the DUniverse!!!

[3catwoman3]

33. They might not taste good...

...together, but Coke and Cheerios certainly made a great combination tonight.

Maybe the chefs on chopped could come up with a new taste treat featuring these 2 products.

[TheMathieu]

36. "BUT COKE IS JUST TRYING TO SELL PRODUCTS WITH THAT ADVERTISEMENT,"

said the people that hated it but needed a more clever disguise for their disdain.
