this hardees/carl jr.'s commercial...
at least i think it is this one, has resulted in tons of e-mail in my in-box - primarily from members of the american family association. folks, especially teachers, are hot about it.
does it offend you?
has hardees pulled the ad? (i don't watch much tv other than sports).
opinions?

I think it's great. The only negative that can be said about it is that it rips off Van Halen's "Hot For Teacher" video. If you are offended by this, you need to lighten up.
Since there have been so many inappropriate teacher/student relationships, I do think this an uncomfortable ad to watch.
its a damn commercial if you dont like it turn the chanel
That is, of course, what I will do. I was only offering my opinion since one was asked for. Thanks for the advice.
inappropriate teacher/student relationships have always happened and allways will it dosent make it right but it happens and a silly commercial dosent make any difference we need to pay more attention to the teachers buying dope in lamar county instead of a crappy commercial
Another sign of the mental and moral compass of B/LC. There is none.
I'm going to Hardees right now to buy something. I wonder what our future/ former city councilwoman thinks about it?
The American Family Association is a bunch of nut jobs that believe it is the government's job to parent their children so they can spend their time complaining.
I am much more offended by the endless "This is Our Country" commercials. If I hear it one more time, I may committ hara-kiri.
Let me ask you this. If Jesus saw this commercial would He be offended, or would He find it amusing? This is just another example of the moral decay in our sick society today.
I am sure Jesus has a sense of humor. I bet he would get a few laughs out of it.
moral decay startd with organised religion,and i'm sure jesus would find it amusing because unlike you i'm positive god has a sence of humor your proof of that
As long as this commercial makes you happy, that is all that matters to me.
The biggest problem I have with this ad is that it is another example of the objectification of women. "They're not people...just buns for your pleasure guys...hamburger buns/chick buns...whatever". That's the much more offensive message than the trite implied sexuality (which is so overdone that it's boring), pop-tart sensuality (which really isn't) or the inappropriate student-teacher relationships (I don't see much of a relationship here unless ogling can be construed as a relationship in our shallow culture).
I'll make my opinion of the chain known the same way I did with CITGO...I'll not be spending my money there.
Thanks for sharing.
American going down hill just a little more.
WWJD?: I suspect Jesus would order the Bacon Double-Cheeseburger.
I find Hardees disgusting anyway...haven't eaten there in years.
I think I am to the point where nothing shocks me anymore...We see so much of this, on TV and in the movies, magazines, etc.
The mentality of bad publicity, at least gets people to watch and talk, is so old too. It is obvious the class of customers that they are trying to influence.
I say let them indoctrinate the low class; these are the companies that have to hire the ignorant people to work for them.
I totally agree with the thread about Chic-Fil-A about how you are treated when you are a customer there verse other fast food chains.
Courtesy and Cleanliness goes a long way for my money!
LCCHS needs teachers like this the students could learn about the food groups
American Family Association keeps up with things to keep the American public informed, and I am a very grateful parent for their service to the family.
No decent parent would want a teacher like this teaching their child, and no teacher wants her profession being portrayed in such a manner. The courts are full of child molesters, rapists, and child porn offenders, and ridiculous songs and videos like this encourage crime and sexual perversion.
Hardees and Carl Jr. have kept the commercial, but removed the teacher...because of the outcry of the teachers! I support them 100%, because they do not deserve to be treated with so little respect.
Thanks, Walter, for opening this up.
where was she in 1973?
No different than all the other ads that use sex to sell.
It may offend some, but it appeals to most of the 18-30 age group who spend more on fast food & beer than any other age group.
Makes me want to eat a burgar!
Roast Beef on Thigh for me
what ever happened to the roast beef sand that they started serving at first. much better than their hamburgers
Jesus would be angry that we are causing his little ones to sin. Read your bible and you would know. He that looks on a woman with lust has committed adultery with her already in his heart. Jesus died for you and me. Take advantage of his grace while you have the chance. Eternity is too long to be wrong.
8:58 says:
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah....The end!
You fools better wise up. You think commercials create this stuff? You think spewing Jesus words will stop it??
The only teachers who approached me when I went to school were males (I'm a male) and two of them were Republican and one was a very vocal christian.
One was an English teacher who drove a nice red Corvette. He said if I allowed him to do oral sex on me I could use his Vette. Perhaps we should blame perverts on Chevy? Maybe Jesus drives a Ford?
That was in the 60's. I'd have taken the Vette deal if I had a female teacher. I'm thinking hair in a bun, glasses, and a ruler and no Vette required. Maybe some spiked shoes. A Hardee's hamburger would close the deal.
Seriously folks, Jesus and commercials have nothing to do with it. We have had perverted judges in this area, and they still are around. Perverts are everywhere and they aren't the flaming fags swishing down the road. All the creeps that approached me were white straight looking male teachers and one God loving creep from church.
I have a theory. Democrats are less likely to be perverted because they can relate to women. These bible thumping moral draft evading Republican perverts are too ugly, dumb, insensitive, or stupid to get women so they go for boys or young girls.
I say just kill 'em, don't accept a plea bargin and let them back out.
sounds like thats coming from experience,maybe you realy are a closet republican
9:57, I pity you and the horrible things you obviously had to go through. Let me assure you that even though that man may have SAID he loved God, he absolutely did not, and if he went to church, he went for the same reason he taught school...to molest children. All who try to look like Christians are not, because true Christianity comes from a changed heart, not from trying to look good by going to church.
My point...why think a video is funny which shows a teacher doing things that you would be outraged if your child's teacher did in front of him? Enticing a child sexually is wrong, and those who think differently are breaking moral laws and the laws of our land.
11:12 Am said "All who try to look like Christians are not, because true Christianity comes from a changed heart, not from trying to look good by going to church." thank you for saying that because its the truth
I don't think any of this has a single thing to do with rep. or dem. If you got violated as a young adult then maybe you shouldn't have acted so queer, you fag democrat.
it's no different that pepsi commercials when brittany spears danced around half naked, or the go daddy commercials... it doesn't make me want to go and buy a hardees patty melt, but it sure gets your attention! it's that what advertising is all about?
12:09 not all gays are democrats,
but come to think of it all the gays I'V ever meet WERE democrats
kind of makes ya wonder dont it!!
Well, like the commercial or not, Hardees has decided not to air it, as well as some more of their crude advertising. It really does work to let your businesses know how you feel! I am just thankful that is one more piece of junk our kids won't be subjected to. (It's not good for adults, either.)
I personally don't care for the commercial and Hardee's in general. What bothers me is when parents take their children into any restaurant and let them act like heathens. You should not inflict your wild children on the rest of the dining public who would prefer not the witness the maniacs running around and yelling. Take control of your children when in a public eating establishment or take them to Mickey Dee's. where I don't eat.
6:23 pm my sentiments exactly! I too am so tired of heathen children, and the parents thinking it's cute. I never had/or will have children, and I am in my late 30s. I figure there was no use. What gets me is what parents are accepting as normal behavior. Between the piss poor educational system that indoctrinates them, main stream society that keeps it perpetuated, and then no parental responsibility. I figure I was just better off not having children.
All i wanted to say was, looks like a tasty burger. BUT. The problem, no 1 of the problems is no home training. Kids have no respect for work if they dont half to work to get anything! Let a child run wild and thats what it will do. Dont blame society cause you cant raise your child.
Oh and while im on the subject if you are to stupid to make more than minimum wage(dont breed).If you are on welfare(dont breed).IF YOU CAN NOT PAY YOUR RENT YOU CANT PAY FOR A CHILD!
It isn't the children at McDonalds.
It is the people who stop and park there junkled up old cars with $3000 wheels wherever they want and tie up the traffic or the people behind the counter who can't speak anything remotely close to English. It's the lazy butts who have to park three feet from the door so they can walk their jumbo-sized food butt and beer gutt that ten feet to the counter without pushing a big mac hemroid out their lazy you know what...
Barbra Bush is a man. And look at the stupid little monkey George he pooped out.
Trillion dollars for Iraq and not a bit safer than we were, commie Chinese just killing us with unsafe products, no border security, good jobs going away, middle class vanishing, and Binladen laughing at us. They spent $50000 and made us spend a trillion in the wrong country. That's how dumb we are.
8:08 am Sounds like you have been sipping on too much Kool Aid.
I guess I've been sipping it too because I totally agree!
Have any of you actually looked into these situations?
It is hilarious that all those gripes go back to the Clinton era also, but he didn't do a thing wrong. I am not a huge Bush fan (or any other any politicians fan) but most of the attacks against him are actually unjust and said in an attempt to tear down his character. He hasn't done the greatest job possible but who could've done better Gore or Kerry?

11:06 AM are you part of the Rainbow Family too?
12:50 AM That was a point I was going to make ealier. What people do not understand about current administrations, are that they are only following previous administrations policies...Ronald Regean is what made Bill Clinton look so great with the economy.
George Bush is an embarrassment to the U.S.
just think people the towel heads will be dancing in the streets when the hildabeast gets elected because they know then that nothing will stop them from completing their task making america look foolish in the worlds eyes
..."What people do not understand about current administrations, are that they are only following previous administrations policies"...
When we get attacked during Hillary's term it will be on Dubya's shoulders. He's done nothing but instigate more hatred towards the US.
4:26 pm Read your Bible and your history books, this is not new and has been a long time comin'.
Rag heads hate us because of who we are...powerful, independant, strong willed, we treat women as equals...etc...
I since you don't read, I will tell you another lesson in history Iraq is not the only country that hates us and wants to see us fall.
Treat women as equals?
Where the hell do you live?
Obviously you've never visited a plastic and metal house with(out) wheels and observed the typical beer drinking ain't got no job red neck master race in their natural habitat.
They actually hate us because we lie, because we are two-faced, and because we think the way we live is the only way everyone else should be allowed to live.
We have very short memories.
We gave old Bin weapons and money to fight the Russians. We sold Iran arms after they held Americans hostage so we could send money to Central America (remember the Contras).
We were wrong about WMD and other things but too vain to admit a mistake. We have porno all over satellite and we beam soap operas and "Desperate Housewives" all over the world.
Let's be honest here. They don't hate us because we are honorable. They hate us because we are lying cheating greedy people that will kill a hundred thousand innocents in a country that isn't ours and that wasn't causing us a problem, while our President takes money from the Saudis that actually spawned the 9-11 hijackers.
Time to look honestly in the mirror.
Then lets pull out! Lets bring our troops home and put them on the border. Send CIA spys in to find the terrorists and snipers to take them out. AND STOP ALL TRADE WITH COMMUNIST COUNTRYS!
10:11
WE try to make everyone live like us?
I guess the MUSLIM terrorists could care less about turning America, the UK and all other democracies into a pile of rubble for not living the pure life of Islam.
WOW, I have been so confused all this time.
From your previous post I have concluded that you dislike America because of the state of its Government-FINE- that's your opinion and you can have it, NOW, name a country with more opportunity, more charitable donations, and more blood shed for other countries to be free of radical dictators hell bent on world domination or destruction.
There are many things that OUR country has done that could be looked at from MANY different perspectives but when you look at the bottom line America is a medicine more than an illness for this planet.
I also saw the GREED part you threw in there, sorry, but until another country produces what we have through capitalism, hard work and free trade, I'll say that the GREED you speak of is hardly anything more than what is earned from sweat, smarts, and determination.
I believe you have spent too much time in front of your mirror and now you need to look at the big picture.
What should we have done about Saddam when he refused weapons inspectors from the UN to enter?
He has already used the WMD in the past, you've got soldiers on the ground in Afghanistan because of a terrorist attack, and last but definitely not least, BILL CLINTON'S ADMINISTRATION has already said that this man MUST be taken out of power.
Maybe we should have just walked away altogether and spent the last few generations as free Americans in the fantasy world the LIBERAL LEFT has created in their unconscious minds of peace and togetherness.
PS- this world they speak of is actually just fantasy, SORRY :{

10:02 pm your right I don’t socialize with friends like yours, I consider them trash. Ignorance is by choice, I am from two parents that neither graduated high school, but both were self-employed and retired early. Plus they raised 5 successful self-employed children…..It is called capitalism!!
4:52 PM:
"I since you don't read"
That's great! I since you can't spell!!!
10:02 p.m. I happen to be one of those people who live in a metal and plastic and am sick of you making fun of and putting down people who do. A lot of us are a hell of a lot better than your low rent ass will ever hope to be!!! There is scum in every lifestyle. Whether you be a middle class person who works hard to earn a living or a rich person who thinks they can do and get away with any thing just because my daddy will pay my way out of it or I know people, or the no-class welfare people who depend on everyone else to support him.
I got news for you.
If you be living in a plastic and metal house youze most certainly ain't middle class.
You might be middle, perhaps even extra middle from all that cheap beer and pork fat, but definately not any class.
JAZMAN LIKES FLAT BUNS
It was funny but inappropriate. My 2 cents.
If you live in a plastic house its your fault! Dont give me that pore mouth shit, school is free. If you cant better your self its your fault! And if you live in a plastic house,if you cant pay for a house please dont have kids tax payers dont want to pay for your kids.And SOCIETY OWES YOU NOTHING! YOU OWE SOCIETY if you or your child live off the govornment. If you cant pay for them dont have them! And ritch or pore if you are not married when you child comes its a basturd child.30 years ago having a bastudr was an insult now its a fad.
that's HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gillrilla you really don't know what the hell you are talking about!! I have pride in my place and just because it aint paid for by the gov't. don't mean I got it for nothing I don't expect hand outs from anyone I earn my own. You are probably one of the ones who live off the gov't. and drink cheap beer since you know more about than I do. I am not overweight and I work for everything that I get. Can you say the same? or are you just one of these people who like to blow hot air up someone's skirt or pant legs if you swing that way. I am just saying that you can live in a stick, brick or plastic house you shouldn't be judged by that, but by the character of the person. Not all people who live in Mobile Homes are trash. I probably own more than you could ever hope too because I have ambition and drive and wouldn't expect someone else like the gov't. to pay for my things.
this doesn't offend me nearly as much as the fact that Johnny had an affair and is lying to all of us
johnny who?
who cares
They must work at the SO
Joe fired all those deputies bc all they did was cry and spread butt lice.
You are stukid addholes.
I hate you JOE, Joe did this, Joe did that, cry baby cry baby boo hoo hoo
OHHHHHH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED AT THE SO, SOMEBODY ASKED JOE A QUESTION AND HE GAVE THEM AN ANSWER. OMG.
I have all these complaints but no evidence to prove anything but who cares, all that means is that I'm like the Democrats in Washington.
BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.
Seriously, write a letter to the editor of the newspaper and take this complaint a step further, maybe then someone can help ya'll come up with some evidence.
Next person to respond to this against Joe is a commie fag, or an ex-employee or the brother of an ex-employee or the wife of an ex-employee or a good friend of an ex-employee. JIBBER JABBER BLAH BLAH
JOE DID THIS BLAH BLAH I HATE JOE BLAH I HEARD FROM SOMEONE THAT ALMOST SAW SOMETHING HAPPEN BLAH.
SAD LITTLE BITCHES YOU ARE, or,
ARE YOU BITCHES LITTLE SAD?
Chu Righke Mee?
YOU WANT MIRRION DORRA?
Now I will close with some unintelligible lettering.
OMG, you tell Q-BERT that POOPOO said he wants his DGW. Let Joe know we PDWQ some TXV for TGIF MOFO.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH we act like school girls.
YAAAAAAAAAAAY
Who is on leave of absence
no one but Johnny who ever that is
poor johnny
That absent person works at the SO, doesn't he?
HEY 11:02 I may not know what im talkin about. All im sayin is dont blame me for your lot in life. Dont have kids and lay up on your minimum wage ass and expect society to catch the bill because you cant pay for that litter of kids your unemployed wife spit out and has no control of! and if this does not app. to you pass it on. And as far as the personal attack on me, Im goin to get my overweight ass into my mobile home and hope that my cheap beer does not run out before gov. check comes. If it dont come on time my mama will half to work overtime at waffle house to pay for my cigarettes. my check cant pay for every thing in this single wide!
She needs that money for lottery and slot machines!
what's going on at the s o now?
3:25 p.m. I would rather live in a plastic and metal house than live in the slum that you live in. You probably live in the ghetto and have a mouth full of gold teeth thanks to hardworking taxpayers like myself. I don't blame anyone
for my lifestyle,I don't feel that the gov't or anyone else "owes me" I aint one of the people that want to say "don't blame me I's just an oppressed black man I aint accountable for what I do because I didn't have a daddy at home and my momma waits on the front porch the first or fifteenth of every month waiting on her gov't check.
I need yalls tax money to pay for my lil baby so his mama can raise a litter of little basturds who will leach off society and taxpayers till they get old enough to join a gang go to jail or have another little basturd to carry on!
i jsut watched this again and man i gotta say, i would bite her on her flat ass and pray for lock-jaw!
POWP
Like i said makes me want to eat a burgar!
So is it trashy to live in a double wide? I have a degree and earn well over minimum wage, but I live in a double wide. So am I trash? That question is for you gillrilla.
