Amusing take on what the WingNut blogosphere is up to these days.

[Hamlette]

They have gone bat sh*t crazy over this ad:



Apparently unaware that corporations compete in a global market and sometimes engage in niche advertising, occasionally placing different ads in different countries, our frothing lunatics are in high dudgeon over this grave insult to white America. Sometimes, the treachery is so bad that these evil America hating corporations even use foreign languages in their commercials and in their advertising!

This, of course, means that Queen Outrage herself has kicked into high gear, with numerous posts on the matter, inevitably leading to the type of citizen activism that is much approved among this crowd- harassing people who have jobs. Michelle, champion of the halfwit, reports excitedly:


You know what has been heartening the past two days as reaction to the Absolut Reconquista ad continues to pour in? The fact that so many of you still take our sovereignty seriously and are willing to give voice to your concerns without apologizing for it.

Because we all know that nothing protects our national sovereignty like manufactured outrage over a Vodka ad. At any rate, whipped into a lather, the drooling brigade of Malkinites picked up their crayons and fired off a number of missives to the Absolut ad executive, who promptly told them to go fuck themselves.

Seriously:
