    So I have "no real point" when I point out that their ad was primarily motivated by a desire to boost beer sales.

    Yeah I guess I'm off. Who would ever believe that a company would play on the feelings of consumers to make a quick buck. Unheard of.
    Uh.....

    Water is wet.

    Rocks are hard.

    Grass is green.

    You have argued a point repeatedly in this thread that HAS NO COUNTER POINT!

    Do you understand what everyone here has been saying to you?

    Yes, which is why I have spent the time in this thread. I see I'm not alone in my assessment of the advertisement.

    A beer commercial to sell beer? Is that the sum of all its parts? I don't get it .

    I felt that way about you on page 1. The firm is clearly trying to exploit the consumer feelings of patriotism by running that ad and furthermore by throwing a few bones at some military families. I haven't even gone as far as GoN and claimed that they are outright exploiting the military dead and wounded, though I can definitely see where he is coming from.

    Saying that 'well some good came out of it so you can't be critical of it' is a pretty piss poor standard.

    Sorry, I've had one position and apparently it is unfathomable to you that one might find the exploitation of the service of military personnel for commercial gain to be disturbing. Too bad.

    Topping my list is a marinara sauce experiment with mushrooms, but I expect to bake a few cookies too.

    Saying that 'well some good came out of it so you can't be critical of it' is a pretty piss poor standard.

    You're right!

    Because saying "Sparky feels this is bad" is a much better standard.

    I don't see how holding the actions of a company to scrutiny, finding no negative results from their action, and letting them be is bad.

    Your argument is that they are exploating the military. But who does it hurt? For me, key libertarian thinking goes along the lines of "as long as it doesn't harm or violate anyone elses rights, then it's fine".

    However, it seems as though you would have a problem with GI Joe, they totally exploited the military for financial gain. Or those companies that make the little green soldiers!!! And after them, you can go after toy gun companies. Oh, but we're not out of targets yet! Model Airplanes are a total explotation of the Air Force, we should defiently go after them!

    But, really, where we need to take this fight to, is Hollywood! Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Top Gun, and Pearl Harbor all have something very wrong with them.

    It has just been revealed to me, that those were made for....FINANCIAL GAIN!

    I will fight to the death with Sparky at my side!

    Ok, since you are incapble of reading above a 5th grade level.

    Jane and Jack watch a commercial about soliders and beer.

    Nothing bad happens.

    Jane and Jack are not mad.

    Simple enough?

    It's cute when both your ego and your mouth conspire to make you so desperate. Go protest poverty or whatever.
