SACRAMENTO, Calif. - A California woman says a laundry detergent ad offended her so much that she contacted her local congressman and even sent a message to Hillary Clinton.
The ad was in a Sacramento newspaper. It reads "smells like Meemaw" with a bag of potpourri above it. Next to it sits the detergent Gain with the line, "smells like yee-haw."
The ad left one grandmother madder than a spin cycle.
"I think I was particularly offended, maybe for me, because my grandchildren call me MeMaw, but I was like, when did grandmothers start smelling bad?" said Randee Reidy.
"I've contacted my local congressman, my state senator. I've sent a message to Hillary Clinton. I think she might be interested, and I don't know I think I'll just keeping kind of going with it, because it's not right," she said.
The newspaper pulled the ad.. and she got a letter from Procter and Gamble that said, "Please know that we thoroughly test our advertising with a broad group of consumers before airing it."
But no apology.
A liberal loon offended by being compared to something that smells good? I realize liberals aren't much into personal hygiene, but, good grief!
LOL
I think the woman is stupid and doesn’t even know what potpourri is.
.
Liberal. Cage. Some assembly required.
It’d take a whole lot more than a bag of potpourri to hide the stench of death and old lady coming off of Hillary
If you spend anytime around old folk you know they smell like.... well old people. Sadly, Gain ain’t the cure for a stinky Mee Maw
LMAO!!!
Ain’t one of these ain’t been discovered by you know who ...

Damn, she managed to produce offspring too...
>>>”I’ve contacted my local congressman, my state senator. I’ve sent a message to Hillary Clinton. I think she might be interested<<<
I guess she doesn’t know what Hillary smells like.
At least it doesn’t say “Badussy”....
Since forever. (Bangs gavel) Next case.
I thought it was a bag of trash - I didn’t know it was potpourri.
You are on a roll tonight. LOL.
“If you spend anytime around old folk you know they smell like.... well old people.”
Gee,thanks.
.
Sorry MEE MAW! ;)
With all the misery in the world that some people are causing other people, I can’t find even one atom of outrage over meemaw. What the hell is meemaw?
>> I thought it was a bag of trash - I didnât know it was potpourri.
From a male perspective — what’s the difference?
Could put a pic of any democrat in there with the caption “Smells like ass!” Har!
