PS

Just an aside here …

Look at (the actual corrupt and self-impoverished) Mexico. Now, look at those (productive) states sucked-up by the vodka ad campaign …

Can you imagine the stench of a Mexican territory the size depicted in that fictional map?

Heh. Enjoy:

I wrote Absolut about this, and until I see “el retracto” I’m boycotting their product. I’m also forwarding this story to everyone I know and they’ll do the same. Not sure if this has made O’Reilly yet, but that’s where it really comes back to them. Belvedere, Grey Goose, Stoli, there a lot of options out there.

The green area of the map… that’s “La Raza’s” end game, point in fact :shock:…

Just read the excerpt, “We stole their land”? Our Army was in Mexico City, we could’ve kept the entire fucking country if we’d wanted to!

Why didn’t we?

Well if your ever in in SoCal drive down to the border, beautiful fertile farm land, then the border fence and the land goes to rock formations that are damn near straight up 50 to 100′, barely fit for wildlife.

Yea, perhaps they got screwed over a bit by the USA, but they LOST and that’s what happens to losers. Which is nothing compared to what the Dictators, thugs and Tyrants running and looting Mexico have done to them in the last 150+ years.

“Tito’s Handmade Vodka is a vodka produced in Austin, Texas, created by Bert Butler “Tito” Beveridge. Bert received the nickname name “Tito” or “Bertitio” from his latino caretakers in childhood. Distilled six times, Tito’s Handmade Vodka is made from yellow corn, instead of the more common wheat or potatoes, resulting in a mildly sweet aftertaste.

Commercial production began in 1997 when Beveridge formed Fifth Generation Inc., becoming the first (and only) legal distillery in Texas and producing just 1,000 cases that year. In 2007, he will have sold over 160,000 cases and maintains all production at the south east Austin distillery, where he is currently expanding from one potstill to ten and from one bottling line to four. Despite a lack of commercial advertising, Tito’s Handmade Vodka has gained market share thanks to some prestigious awards, affordable pricing, and word of mouth advertising. Currently, it is distributed coast-to-coast across North America and Canada. Sales and distribution boomed in 2001 after Tito’s Handmade Vodka unanimously won the Double Gold Medal for vodka at the World Spirit’s Competition in San Francisco, beating out 71 other high-priced vodkas.[3] Also that year, it received a four-star ranking from Spirit Journal, the only vodka to do so and has just won four stars again in the latest edition. (2007)

Despite the growing distribution, Tito’s Vodka employs fewer than 15 people and is still handmade in small batches. Tito’s has also just received the title “Fastest Growing Brand in America” by Beverage Dymanics Fast Tracks Brand calculations.”

Never-the-less . . . I love Grey Goose, but have not had any in years since it is from FRANCE! I had been drinking Absolut, but through with that now . . .

I will try Tito . . .

The only ones that screwed them are THEIR government. If you drive further in and over the border, there land COULD be just as rich. Their houses could be just as beautiful. Hell they have BEAUTIFUL beach front property just SCREAMING for developing. Instead, they toss their garbage (literally) out their back windows. They CAN have the US in Mexico if they get rid of the fu***** corruption. Instead of WORKING for a great country, they want one that is already established. No one here in the US fucked them, they fucked themselves.

Great point about the border. People should also study their history about the area that now is part of the US. The Spanish would not even go into the area because of the hostile indians there. Check out what the population of LA, Santa Fe, San Antonio, and other cities were back in the 1830’s. I live in the deep south and all the migrants here work their asses off on farms so they can go back to Mexico and have a better life than their sorry government can give them.

Time to make my feelings known to Absolut’s parent company…see ya.

As Texas Mom noted, Pernod just bought V&S within the last week, so you can add the above brands to all of these:
Stolichnaya**
Wyborowa
Zubrowka**
Polar Ice*
Lodowa
Huzzar
Altai
(The asterisks denote a brand distributed, but not made by, Pernod)

Scrooge ‘em. I’ll stick with ValuRite, just like the other morons at AoSHQ.

And this is just a stupid add, mind you! Imagine Mexico actually changing its name to Texas and amending its constitution to include a clause calling for the liberation of their “Northern brothers”.

And the Bush administration was the first to recognize the FORMER YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA as a sovereign state - only because the Oil Consortium wants to built the AMBO pipeline through their territory…

So, if ever Texas or California get sold back, you need not look further: probably some Oil Conglomerate wants to avoid some taxes…
