SUPER BOWL - birther pit edition

[p1k3]

I'll admit I muted the commercial. Not because the different language...I didn't even notice that. But because the kids' voices were like nails on a chalkboard.

I'd prefer English to be America's official language.  That being said, hating on Coca Cola for embracing America's diversity is ridiculous.

There's a fine line between embracing diversity and pandering for profit or votes. Pandering tends to erode American culture and can be very decisive.  I don't think Coke was pandering in this case, but it was a poor choice of song to use, IMO.

ha ha, she deleted the tweet, but was like, "THIS IS AMERICA, I AM FREE TO SAY WHAT I WANT".

I think "This Land is Your Land" should be our new national anthem. "Star Spangled Banner" sucks.

la marseillaise would be a good anthem for us.

[Rage Against the McKee]

"Livin' in America" by James Brown is what I would prefer.

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

I prefer pro-America immigrants, so this seems like a pretty good commercial to me.

Some guys I've never heard of and never met and don't know and will never meet or care about who have no influence anywhere and don't matter to anyone except people searching for a controversy got upset about this? OH MAN WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Facebook commenters are just the worst people on the internet.  It's not "right-wingers" who are pissed off, it's the lowest of the low idiots who are pissed off.

No, this is clearly the work of the tea party and neocons.

hmm, i wonder which party the outraged affiliate with... the party of inclusion or the party of old racist white men.  hmmm... toughie here.

The party of inclusion (I think the word he's looking for is delusion) sure spends a lot of time hating people based on their beliefs, slandering those people about their beliefs and recruiting people to hate other people. Sound a lot like Nazis.

Since we're speaking about Nazis, should people not have hated Hitler because of his beliefs that jews were inferior?  I mean they were his beliefs right?  Why would you hate them for just believing it and restricting/taking away rights for it?  Oh, because they were racist and stupid?

I think it was more the genocide thing. Propagating his beliefs actually got him enough followers to conquer all of Europe and parts of Asia and Africa.

ASpanish-language version of the "Star-Spangled Banner?"

"I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English," President Bush told reporters Friday, "and I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English, and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English," he said.
