But yet it has something to do with immigration of illegals?    Funny, I thought it was about selling more product.

Haven't seen the commercial.  When is the Super Bowl again?

Anyway, I'm just surprised at OzmO's comments.  Weren't there Hispanics in the commercial singing an American song in Español?  Isn't OzmO usually complaining about Hispanics in the US speaking Español, about having to press 1 for English on the phone, about Hispanics getting mad at the movies because the 3D glasses aren't in Español?

The country is rapidly becoming a 3rd world shithole and the libs and the rest of the idiots in Congress are going along with the cultural suicide. If you idiots actually cared about poor blacks you wouldn't allow this.

As a hateful rightwing fascist....yeah I had a problem with it. America works and has worked because tradionally after each wave of usually unpopular immigration, the folks coming over assimilated with American culture. That's not happening near as much. You don't hear stories of Spanish being outlawed in houses. My grandfather came over from Sicily when he was two....Italian was not allowed to be spoken by the kids for the most part. The Left can't have it both ways....these people want to come here, you have to be Americans. You can't allow these people to become another generation of welfare cases because you want votes. Destroying the country in 30 years isn't exactly going to preserve your base. If they want something that Americans either don't care about...see the polls....or feel negatively about....I think some assurances about how these people are expected to conduct themselves would be helpful. I have zero faith that will happen. This is a reasoned approach to immigration.....or I could say mine the border and set up miniguns and eviscerate everybody coming across.

"They" don't want a UNITED States...

I don't have a problem with people speaking Spanish in the US.  Speak it all you want, have Spanish TV, Mags etc.  Its prudent for Business to cater to that market.

What i am against is these people never learning to speak, read and write English.  where whole communities and small towns are 99% Spanish speaking, where in some other cities and towns 1/2 of the class time is spent teaching in Spanish, where millions of dollars are spent by the city, state and local governments providing documents in Spanish because these fuckers refuse to learn the language of the country they immigrated too, unlike most other nationalities like Italians, Germans, Chinese, Russians, etc.

That's not what the commercial was about though.

Stellen Sie sich den Zorn von Neokonservativen hätte die Werbeagentur hatte gewählt, “This Land is Your Land” entschieden.

....

Imagine the anger from neo-conservatives if  the advertising agency had chosen, “This Land is Your Land.”


Man my german sucks cuz that's a lot of verbs in a scary tense, imo.

Isn't the translation a little closer to:  Imagine the anger from neo-conservatives had the ad agency chosen, "This Land is Your Land"? 

The "hätte die Werbeagentur hatte gewählt" part confuses me.  Can't you just say "hätte die Werbeagentur wählte"?  "wählte" might be wrong -- I'm just trying to use the simple past of wählen (to choose).

I learned "Texas German" from relatives around a community called "Schulenburg" 100 miles away from Houston.  I am not a bit suprised that my translation diverges from "high german."  My ancestry is Austrian.  (yes, Graz)Guess what, my relatives and others in the community use primarily german.  So the concept of a community using a language other than English doesn't offend me.

The push for the Brazilification and eventual multicultural is in full force, with advocates from all corners supporting this agenda.....the entertainment industry, advertising, major media outlets, and our politicians.  Both legal and illegal immigrants overwhelmingly support Democrats, and every major foundation and demographics foretell a permanent Democratic majority in the very near future.

Speak another language.  Learn to live with it, because it is coming, and there is nothing you can do about it.  Just imagine the type of commercials we will be seeing just 5 years from now....you've not seen anything yet :)

I'm not a liberal, but thanks anyway.

I have some liberal stances and some conservative stances... It all depends on the topic and the context.

To put me in one corner or the other is doing humanity a disservice.

Sorry!  I know what you mean.  I have been viewed as a liberal commie by some conservatives when discussing certain social issues, while I have been viewed as a neocon by some liberals when discussing certain other issues.
