Bad taste green commercial causes conservatives to overreact.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfnddMpzPsM

The commercial is silly,but check out the comments made by right wingers they are really trying to claim that this commercial is being used as a genuine fear tactic.

1. It is often said that Americans don't get British Humour.
And this is a great example.

6. Sure there are.

Racist ethnic jokes, homophobic gay jokes, misogynistic jokes about women, jokes about poor people. Oh and, bigoted jokes about every religion but their own. Conservatives have a great diversity of humor to draw from. :sarcasm:

7. Usually blowing people up is their type of humor, but maybe the fact that
this is simulated and doesn't really blow anyone up makes it less funny to them.

8. It is time for people to wake up - Global Warming is real
At the rate we are going, millions of people are going to die

But don't expect the Republicans to do anything about it until rising sea levels start flooding lower Manhattan.

9. Flooding in Manhattan is just part of God's plan.
You're not suggesting we thwart God's plan for the modern Sodom and Gomorrah, are you? :evilgrin:
