Once upon a time there were COMMIES! behind every bush
Since that threat's gone away the Fright Wing's been compelled to find a new issue to monger fear over and 'illegals ' is apparently in the running as if it's somehow a new problem even though many have benefitted from cheap illegal labor for decades.
Yep, now it's a Mexican/Muslim/*******/Obama drone/Democrap behind every bush.
You'd think they'd lose track of their enemies after awhile, wouldn't you?
Was that nationwide? i saw it in San Antonio and wondered for a second which TV channel the Tv was set on. It's sickening.
It's a stupid commercial; do you need to hear what they're saying? I bet it went something like this: "tough, dependable, #1 in blah blah blah, Motor Trend magazine, etc."
Does it bother you that there are so many Spanish speakers in the country, or that they can afford to buy Fords?

Flew right over your head, eh?
Notice I asked the poster I replied to if he was silly enough to believe all the farms/plants that benefitted were owned by Democrats since he was the one who started whining about Democrats.

Last season, American farmers on the west slope of the Rockies in Colorado decided not to import foreign labor (see: Mexican) to pick their crops. Instead, they offered those jobs to American citizens at the going minimum H-2A wage rate of $10 per hour (that's right...$10 per hour for imported labor instead of the usual $7.25 (US) or $7.64 (Colorado) for US workers) and guess what happened? They had hundreds show up the first day to pick onions, but only one came back the second day.
If they want to corner that market they just need to start having a paint job with flames as a factory standard.

Who cares? If Ford thinks this is a good idea then I see no problem with it. They didnt take bailout money. They are simply trying to take on a new marketing plan. Good for them.
Then I will ask the question once again. Most Hispanic-Americans know how to speak English so why would Ford get the idea that they have to advertise to them in Spanish? I'll be waiting.

It only exists if you acknowledge it right? Otherwise it's totally imaginary.
Nah, I think it's much easier for all the whiners to feign outrage over things they've closed their eyes to for years and act as if it's a new problem. But you knew that, right?
Judging by all the feigned outrage here it looks like HE should be their new enemy.
