that snickers commercial isn’t offensive but it is funny as hell. It’s a great commercial. Too bad it’s being labeled as offensive and the snickers people don’t have the “nuts” themselves to air it. Too bad too it would have been great for PR.
I am sad to hear that Ankarlo blantly endoresed a local politician for the position of County Attourney. I know it is right to support anyone that he considers fit, but I thought that he was going to be more objective and keep his thoughts to himself.
Sorry to hear that he lost his objectivity.
I am dissapointed by Ankarlo accepting politicians requests to sponsor his book tour. He has always been an advocate of smaller goverment and more power to the people , but he let himself get entangled by politicians…
