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:

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.

MacIntosh just < dramatic pause > works. All the time. With everything.

PC just < dramatic pause > doesn't work. All the time. With everything.

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!

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.

Relax. The message will only stick if it's violent or counter-intuitive. Now, you're in on the joke.

Pay attention, then ... That's exactly what they're saying.
