ABSOLUT VODKA SELLING MEXICANS AN AMERICA WITHOUT TEXAS AND CALIFORNIA


Swedish vodka maker Absolut is running an advertising campaign in Mexico that is selling Mexicans on the idea of a Mexico that includes Texas and California. The billboard and press campaign, created by advertising agency Teran\TBWA and now running in Mexico, is a colorful map depicting what the Americas might look like in an "Absolut" -- i.e., perfect -- world. Americans calling for a boycott of Absolut vodka are already being heard on the internet. Don't mess with Texas

UPDATE: VODKA MAKER APOLOGIZES FOR U.S./MEXICO ADVERTISEMENT. Like I said: Don't mess with Texas

First they take my job, and now my country.

They apologized. I'm still not buying their vodka.
