wow. The second I saw the chevy commercial I made a dash to the computer to see what ford had to say. Worst part? Ford decided to place ZERO ads for the superbowl :mad: Have you guys seen the commercial yet? I cant lie its hilarious, but its also a big fat lie, read for yourself, but then again you guys should already know that :D

But remember, Ford is footing the bill themselves - they're not on the government teat!

What!?!?! Obama Motors tell a lie!?! I don't believe that... If that were true a person would have to believe the O would lie himself!!! We all know that wouldn't happen...:( "we have to pass the bill to find out what it says..." (Albeit the commercial was funny!)

Was it only local in NY? The old Derek Jeter running around NY with a Mustang commercial played 3 times during the game. Also the Chevy commercial played so Ford had no impact on removing it.

mrjones you are right. Our tax dollars at work. They could have paid 3.5 million back on their loan. I have not owned a GM product since 1973 and will not own one.

I can't stand it when someone has to promote their product by putting the competitors down. They are all guilty of it at one point or another, it just bothers me to see. It's like you have nothing good to say about what you have so you have to talk crap about the other guy's stuff.

The Chrysler commercial with Clint Eastwood, however, was amazing. I think that was by far the best commercial of the night. Even though I wouldn't buy a Chrysler product, I couldn't help but get a little American pride watching it.

"American pride"... Yeah, that's what pisses me off about the Eastwood commercial. It's a cynical exploitation of people's emotions to get them to buy a Chrysler. "Hey! I got it! We'll talk about American pride and American spirit and get all those dopey teabaggers to forget they unwillingly bailed us out and that we're now owned by Fiat. Those saps will buy anything as long as you wave enough flags!" Utter trash. Any respect I had for Eastwood was completely erased by this.

Government Motors is on the dole and Chrysler is controlled by a company that had to pull out of American sales in 1985 because its cars literally fell apart around them.

Meanwhile, Ford laughs all the way to the bank...
