[Mr.Bill]

1. It's great when these bigots self-identify.

They do us all a big favor.

[Half-Century Man]

2. Hummm, You are a arguably a famous Oklahoman and only have 30 followers

one of which finked you out.

Looking good republican.

9. Wrong piece to look at

That's people who just get the RSS feed of his account. You can have 50,000 likes on your page but a handful of "followers". Most people don't use it outside of news-trackers and real junkies.

3. Have any of them explained - in knowledgeable detail - how the ad is un-American?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

4. haven't seen the ad...what's it all about...

besides hocking a product that is unfit for human consumption.

[Mike Daniels]

7. The advert is essentially "America the Beautiful" with various lines sung in different languages

As proof that the tea-baggers really need to get off their anti-public education kick quite a few comments posted on FB or Twitter have bemoaned the "national anthem" being sung in anything but English.

10. I see. Thanks....

Yes that is what is outrageous in America--not growing poverty, global warming, or violence.

5. Coke had a great commercial

[Brickbat]

6. It's like he doesn't even know that Dr Pepper is a Coke product.

11. Sort of, not really

Coke and Pepsi do manufacturer/bottle some, but Dr Pepper is owned by the Dr Pepper-Snapple Company. Coke does own the trademark outside the US in many countries. This is more like a licensing agreement.

8. Don't they know that they will be making Beyonce even more wealthy by promoting Pepsi? nt
