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:

And don't forget, the richest man in the ecountry.
I’ve noticed the same thing. I guess if you have a white person portray the criminal in the commercial no one complains. Check out the one where the jogger steals the woman’s identity. It’s not a big deal, just pervasive enough to be obvious.
If I see that broad do one more Amica commercial, I’m liable to start shooting!
And the gal who does the Progressive commercials oughta take up hooking. That way, she could wear less lipstick...
Arrrrghhh!!!!
I don't remember hearing that.
You're aware that she's a comic actress who is being paid (very well, btw) to play what they call "a character," right?
I had googled and found her name a month or so ago but I forget it...
Didn’t make a difference. I still keep seeing the commercials!
“I’ve had it with ED commercials. “
LOL.. You know, there are any number of ways a person could take that announcement.
Yes, it made me nervous, so, I stopped buying ammo and ordered a few cases of face back. I’m going to be ok. ;>)
Wow is that what she really looks like? They do plaster the makeup on her don’t they. Too bad too, she’s a lot cuter in that pick than in the commercials.
Pay attention, then ... That's exactly what they're saying.
Nope. That's what YOU are hearing.
