Maybe it had something to do with all the Macs posing front and center during the ad, and that it had Apple's look and feel, while all the other Pepsi commercials were completely standard Pepsi look and feel. I certainly didn't think it was a Pepsi commercial. Ok, so it wasn't an Apple ad. Most people didn't understand that Osama, Afghanistan and Saddam *wasn't* the perpetrator in 9/11, but they are still guilty for the event. Meanwhile Pepsi and the Bush cartel collect the cash, and Apple and Halliburton collect their checks. You can remain in denial all you want, but the consumer race is getting smarter and you're not going to stop us from recognizing Orwellian tricks and deceptions.
