"@Techguy1138: If you put the joke in the context that it was meant for: for Mexicans in a Mexican ad, it is definitely funny.
We know we lost the war and a big chunk of Mexico in the process but the great majority of us Mexicans don't give a care."
"@Techguy1138: Well, considering that the ad was created for Mexico and ran only in Mexico, the context and the target audience found it funny.

"Being from Mexico, living in Texas, and being married to a white American woman, I'm in the unique postion of saying that Absolut's ad was funny and only meant as joke like the many "a woman's world" or "it's a man's world" or many other "what if" ads.
The sentiments of Skyy and the people who fell so insulted by Absolut's ad only reveal similarities between the US and other countries we love to criticize, like China or Israel."
"@A_B: I've worked at E-Systems, Raytheon, and more recently, L-3 and let me tell you that whoever your relative that works at Raytheon is, he obviously doesn't have the clearance to know what we're truly capable of."
"@Biggrz: And you don't know how to connect the video from your computer to your TV?

On a separate note, I created cable that you plug into iPod's or iPhone's charging cable."
