Greg Abbott commercial-can you find a non-white face in this ad?

Greg is out with a youtube ad that is really amusing to watch

&feature=player_embedded#t=0


I dare anyone to watch the ad and tell me how many non-white faces you see in this ad.

Juanita Jean has some good comments about the ad http://juanitajean.com/2013/09/03/oh-greg-abbott-you-are-so-i-dunno-weird/

And then come back for a test.

1. Do you see any faces in that commercial that aren’t white and pretty damn old?

2. Whose bright idea was the wall of cuckoo clocks? They need to be fired. I intend on using that wall every time I talk about Greg.

3. German? Really?

One of my customers watched it and was pretty darn sure that they were trying to make Abbott look like a wounded veteran. He was never in the military. A tree feel (more commonly known as fell in non-typo world) on him. He turned it into a multi million dollar judgement.


I am also wondering about the cuckoo clocks.
