4th Horseman Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I need everyone who has seen it to respond.... Joe..i know you have seen it, watching your precious Cardinals...no hiding.. Its in regards to the new Chevrolet commercial... John Cougar Mellencamp singing a song called "Our Country" while we are given images of Martin Luther King, Richard Nixon, New Orleans post Katrina, firemen, etc... anybody seen it? your thoughts on whether or not you feel it smacks of liberal anti-americanism or if the images are just a collage, woven from the fabric of our history...to be honest, i am a bit taken back by some of the blogs and responses to the commercial, many of them, nearly 80-90 percent deriding it as anti-american... your thoughts? 4th Horseman..

If the Cards play Tigers in the WS, who will you cheer for? Toby has a commerical in which he is portraying a working man. He gets in his FORD truck with his lunch pale. This guy has way too much money to be acting like a working man or should i say FORD is paying him lots of moola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SouthernCelt Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Toby has a commerical in which he is portraying a working man. He gets in his FORD truck with his lunch pale. This guy has way too much money to be acting like a working man or should i say FORD is paying him lots of moola I haven't paid any attention to Keith's commercials but I caught one in the same vein the other day where Bret Favre is "working" on his land and talking about getting tired out and sore, etc. Don't even remember the product it advertised but my first thought was, "Yeah, right, with all your NFL millions I'm sure you have to do all the work on your place yourself. Give me a freaking break!" Haven't seen Mellancamp's ad but since I've already classified him as one of my celebs to ignore (I think he's a snivelin' little liberal who ought to just shut up; his music's not that good IMO anyway), I might not change channels if it airs but I'll not give it any attention. That'd probably be a good time for a bathroom break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fledgling666 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 truck commercials are just bad anyway, oh, well, except for the Nissan Titan ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walkabout Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 I could see people complaining if they showed Neo Nazzis or Klan members marching around. I did not find it anti American or offensive. rather a catchy tune. Some people have nothing better to do than trash everything just to get a reaction.
