			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.idude.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/37564520.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-176" title="Mexican Absolut Ad" src="http://www.idude.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/37564520-300x180.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="180" /></a></p>
<p>This is the end of all my support for this company&#8230; They put this ad up in Mexico to, in my opinion, embolden the Mexicans in their takeover of the American southwest.</p>
<p>They claim:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;In no way was it meant to offend or disparage, nor does it advocate an altering of borders, nor does it lend support to any anti-American sentiment, nor does it reflect immigration issues,&#8221; Absolut said in a statement left on its consumer inquiry phone line.</p>
<p>So what did they expect it to convey?  Is it not anti-American to post an ad that shows the areas that are currently being &#8220;taken over&#8221; taken over by Mexico?  This ad, considering the current climate of illegal immigration, is probably the most outrageous thing I&#8217;ve seen in a LONG time.</p>
<p>This should be a message and wake up call to the leaders in Washington of how America is being perceived by the world.  America is slowing losing its sovereignty and identity to those who come here and do not believe in our law or want to integrate into the society which hosts them&#8230;  Absolut&#8217;s pandering of Mexican anti-American sentiment is disgusting.</p>
<p>I have a little Absolut left at home, but I&#8217;m not going to pour it out.  I&#8217;m going to happily drink to their demise.  They will receive none of my business in the future.</p>
