I Get Pissed Every Time I See That Commercial...

[Powdered Toast Man]

That World Cup one... Why the hell does it cut to an Obama tattoo when it says "Communism"? I know... I know... I'm letting something bug me that i shouldn't, but... still. It is really irritating.

1. Huh....wha?

I guess I can't comprehend what you're talking about, nevermind how the word communism and an Obama tattoo got in an ad for soccer.

2. Here is the commercial...

The tatoo is at 35 seconds in, and it is not Obama, I believe it is Che Guererra(sp?).

5. LOL... oops

Guess I should put on my glasses. And I would, if I weren't still waiting for them to come.

4. It shoudl not bother you, that's Che Guevara, not Barack Obama

And Commander Che Guevara WAS a communist.

They are making a valid point though... the cup is not, in theory, about any of those things... but about sport.

Of course there is always some politics, but that's besides the point.
