BUD LIGHT Funniest Commercials EVER !!!

The Bud light dilemma...I've never had a Bud light.

I know they have had a real dilemma since they made a change
in their advertising. 

Their stock price has taken a hit, not that I have 
any of their stock.

The Advertiser Boss (who said the old advertising
was stale & needed a jolt)


 ran a commercial to celebrate diversity.


Buds Parent Company has lost about 

$6 billion in market cap since then.


Not good.

I don't follow Bud Light.

But I thought I should look up what all the fuss was about.
What were Bud Light 'old' commercials like?

I don't get #10

 


How Children perceive their grandparents.

1. I was in the bathroom, putting on my makeup, under the watchful eyes of my young granddaughter, as I'd done many times before. After I applied my lipstick and started to leave, the little one said, "But Grandma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!" I will probably never put lipstick on again without thinking about kissing the toilet paper good-bye....

2. My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, 68. My grandson was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"

3. After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. Finally, she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say with a trembling voice, "Who was THAT?"

4. A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like. "We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods." The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this all in. At last she said, "I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!"

5. My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo and I said, "No, how are we alike?'' "You're both old," he replied.

6. A little girl was diligently pounding away on her grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story.
"What's it about?" he asked.
"I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."

7. I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me and was always correct. It was fun for me, so I continued. At last, she headed for the door, saying, "Grandma, I really think you should try to figure out some of these colors yourself!"

8. When my grandson Billy and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them before I did, Billy whispered, "It's no use Grandpa. Now the mosquitoes are coming after us with flashlights."

9. When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replied, "I'm not sure." "Look in your underwear, Grandpa," he advised "Mine says I'm 4 to 6." (WOW! I really like this one -- it says I'm only '38'!)

10. A second grader came home from school and said to her grandmother, "Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies today." The grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to keep her cool. "That's interesting." she said. "How do you make babies?" "It's simple," replied the girl. "You just change 'y' to 'i' and add 'es'."

11. Children's Logic: "Give me a sentence about a public servant," said a teacher. The small boy wrote: "The fireman came down the ladder pregnant." The teacher took the lad aside to correct him. "Don't you know what pregnant means?" she asked. "Sure," said the young boy confidently. 'It means carrying a child."

12. A grandfather was delivering his grandchildren to their home one day when a fire truck zoomed past. Sitting in the front seat of the fire truck was a Dalmatian dog. The children started discussing the dog's duties.
"They use him to keep crowds back," said one child.
"No," said another. "He's just for good luck."
A third child brought the argument to a close. “They use the dogs," she said firmly, "to find the fire hydrants."

13. A 6-year-old was asked where his grandma lived. "Oh," he said, "she lives at the airport, and whenever we want her, we just go get her. Then, when we're done having her visit, we take her back to the airport."

14. Grandpa is the smartest man on earth! He teaches me good things, but I don't get to see him enough to get as smart as him!

15. My Grandparents are funny, when they bend over, you hear gas leaks and they blame their dog.

Assistant Director of Counterintelligence...

And she doesn't give a shit!



How would J Edgar respond?




It's election season...

 Remember this guy? 


Here is what he is now saying, with a rebuttal

John Bolton the war hawk braggart ridicules President Trump for his America First foreign policy

There are few things more bothersome than listening to an embedded swamp creature castigate a president whose America first agenda brought an impressive amount of political stability to the global community. Remember when Bolton bragged about his role in far-off coups d’état?

Yesterday, Newsmax reported that former national security advisor John Bolton came after President Trump, and per Bolton:

I think the overall judgment you have to make is that fundamentally, Trump didn’t understand international relations, didn’t understand America’s place in the world, didn’t understand how to protect our interests[.]

We were fortunate we didn’t have a really dramatic international crisis during his tenure.

First of all, there were countless “really dramatic international” events that could have (and likely would have) escalated, were it not for the leadership of President Trump: reports that Assad used chemical weapons against Syrian civilians… nuclear threats from North Korea… Iran’s downing of a U.S. drone and the real “red line” with Soleimani… and that’s just to name a few.

Trump secured the Abraham peace accords, treaties that everyone said wouldn’t or couldn’t happen.

Trump moved the American embassy to Jerusalem; everyone said that would be dangerous, but Trump presciently knew it wasn’t.

Trump pulled out of the worthless Paris Climate accord, a massive transfer of wealth from the American middle class to foreign interests (China and India weren’t required to make any changes).

Trump pulled out of the disastrous and dangerous Iran “peace deal”, one in which Iran used the American taxpayer money to spread terrorism around the world and pledge “death to Israel”.

Trump drilled in America, which pressured countries like Russia to keep global oil prices low — it sure helped the poor and middle class with low inflation, that “magic wand” Obama couldn’t seem to find to fix the economy.

Trump put sanctions on Russian pipelines, ones which Biden has since removed. 

Russia attacked Ukraine during the Obama and Biden years; strangely though, not during Trump’s tenure. (Somehow, Bolton doesn’t care.)

Trump — not Obama, Biden, Clinton, or Bush — got NATO to increase their spending on defense, which in turn removed the burden from hardworking Americans.

Trump put sanctions on China; we were told it would harm Americans with higher prices, but it didn’t.

It appears that Bolton is very confused as to who actually doesn’t understand foreign relations; he prefers swamp creatures who fail to achieve real results.

The world was relatively peaceful during Trump’s four years, but somehow, Trump is the guy who didn’t understand foreign relations.

Bolton is like most of the media and other Democrats. Results don’t matter. Biden, Kerry, Sullivan, Blinken don’t achieve anything… other than making China, Russia, and Iran (and themselves) more wealthy, and more powerful.

“We were fortunate we didn’t have a really dramatic international crisis during his tenure.”
Maybe the reason Bolton thinks we didn’t have a major foreign crisis was because Trump knew what he was doing. What a concept!
