I'm not watching the Olympics this year so I have not seen the commercial. Based on Lonsberry's reaction, I would expect nothing less from Obama Motors.

Chevys are cr@p to begin with—This isn’t going to help them, I don’t think.

...the notion that it is mainstream enough to be embraced in an advertisement for a mass-appeal product like an automobile is insane.

GM has shown that it doesn't need to actually sell cars to remain solvent.

In other words they are really appealing to their direct benefactors - the liberal ruling class that will give them your money even if you choose not to.

Homosexuals will still buy Subarus - they know a real gay car when they see one.

The new orthodoxy is on the march and if you don’t clap loud enough you will be handled like a North Korean uncle.

Exaggeration? Give them ten more years . . .

A suby with a rainbow and an equal sign sticker is just redundant.

I’ve noticed the push and support for pedophilia and sodomy in many commerials and the MSM big time this last year. I wonder if the people who produce this crap would leave their child in the care of a homo alone as well? I sure wouldn’t. You can’t deny their tendencies. Its been proven time and time and its not something I will ever tolerate.

Keep your politics out of it.
Sell your product, not sex...straight or otherwise.
They can also keep their cars.

I'm thinking of starting to say I'm an out of work transgender, gay, illegal, Muslim just to avoid the persecution of being a principled, straight, white, Christian, married, working guy.

That's not entirely satire either - I do feel persecuted by the very types of people who claim to celebrate diversity and promote tolerance.

I would have thought gays were too smart to buy a Chevy. My last piece of carp Chevy Avalanche was assembled in Mexico, anyway.

I had a rental car on my last business trip - a Chevy Malibu- I took it back after 2 days and told the agent I was feeling microagression from the manufacturer because the model name - Malibu- invokes images beaches with women in bikinis being marginalized and sexually assaulted by white men.

She burst out laughing and asked what the real reason was. " it's just a piece of crap" said I. She got me a Chrysler 200 which I actually had a little fun with although I believe Chrysler took bailout money too.

We've been Ford people since the days of the flathead V8. I like Ford trucks.

11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
