I have HAD IT with the PC Commercials!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOP Mike's Blog ^ | 12/11/08 | GOP Mike

To my Conservative Friends:

I find myself after a long day of work, trying to catch a game or the O'Reilly factor and I have to sit through commercial after commercial of the most annoying politically correct garbage there is....

It seems to be every commercial portrays the white, conservative male as a bumbling idiotic fool who can't hammer in a nail, while his Oh-so-cool, all-together wife is so calm, cool and collected and has everything figured out!!!! It is open season on the middle-aged white, conservative male. Women and minorities are off limits... The ultimate fear for companies and ad people is to be called sexist, or worse.... raaaacist!!!

I mean, c'mon, once in a while is ok and even amusing, but every time the white-male has to be made a fool of?? And who is the audience they most likely are targeting to buy their crap - is us white-males!!!!

We have all seen the PC guy/Mac commercials that portray the PC guy as an absolute fool, a little overweight, not-so attractive, while Mac guy is thin, young and sooo cool and hip (although if this is the type of guy women like, I am really behind the times - how about a shower, shave and a haircut for this hippie???)..

A few examples for your viewing pleasure:

Except if they are Conservatives.

Every commercial is like that now. The white guy is dumb, his wife knows he is dumb. Some hip minority person is there etc etc. the only solutions - which I am taking is cancelling cable and the TV. Find a hooby, take a walk, use your computer, rent a non-lib movie. etc. After Fox News sold out a month before the election is the final straw.

The men in those Apple commercials do not depict computer users, but the computers themselves.

My tv comes in handy for the local weather - and that is about it. I can check on line, but the local station is better than its web site.

I read lots of books, and do jigsaw puzzles (working on a 2000 piece right now).

Man law #4564 - Don’t whine about inaccurate stereotypes of your gender, that’s a women’s job.

To be truthful, there ARE commercials that make MARRIED black men look like idiots in front of their wives, too.

I’ve noticed that every burglar in these commercials selling security systems are all white. Always.

I have noticed an influx of African American commercials since the Exaulted One was elected.

What I've REALLY noticed since the Messiah election is that although only 15% or so of the entire population is black, it seems 50% or MORE of the commercials now feature BLACKS.

Only in America....

Canceled my cable last week. Was paying 80 bucks a month for digital cable, DVR, and “HD tier” (i.e. ESPN HD). Not any longer. Guess if there’s some game I absolutely have to see, I’ll go somewheres else to see it.

Yeah me too. And also mildly African-American voices on radio commercials.

I have stopped watching Faux News, no COLB no creds. Same with so called conservative talking heads.

You forgot to mention that the guy on the telephone who “comes to the rescue” in the alarm is also white.

And exactly how did you determine that dummy in the Fedex commercial is conservative and the other guys are liberal? I mean, I know plenty of liberals who dress at work like the guy in the tie.

You mean like every home invader is a goateed white guy with a crowbar?

Every woman is smart.

Every black is shown with family in tow, smiling.

Every homosexual is shown as kind, neat and understanding.

The bumbling, obtuse, shirttail untucked, unshaven, TV-watching, butt scratching chubby guy is INVARIABLY WHITE...
but isn’t it so ironic that every miserable Liberal freakshow that works in the advertising business in Century City or Madison Avenue markets DIRECTLY to age, sex and race when filling ad slots...

Fried chicken ads during basketball games; Mercedes ads during golf tournaments; cereal during children’s programming, tampons and hair products on Lifetime...reverse mortgages during re-runs of The Golden Girls...

The media continues to bash, hinder, handicap and trash the heterosexual European-American male ad nauseum. The group that has contributed the most to the strongest nation on earth is the target of every jealous and self-loathing Liberal.

Madison Avenue is a bastion of Marxism, but in practice, know the “politically incorrect” truths to demographics in marketing goods and services.

They are maggots, like every other twisted Liberal mind.

The kids are also shown as smarter and more enlightened than their dads. I didn’t know I was so stupid until TV told me so.

My Peeve is the Christians...if you see someone mention Jesus in the first five minutes of a drama, bingo, you know they are the killer, psycho, bigot, monster. (Maybe the only kind examples I can think of in recent years was Evan on Nash Bridges, who really “walked the walk” but got killed later in the last season, and the Mom in Big Bang Theory.)
