THE COMMERCIAL This morning I spoke with a representative of Anheuser Busch about their Superbowl commercial. First, here is some background. In a club in San Bernardino with a couple hundred Marines, wives, and friends, I watched the Superbowl. I fought back a tear at the bar as I watched the commercial that honored the troops.
