Integrity? NOT!

I'm getting truly disgusted with some of these commercials. Two struck a nerve last night. Little Halo Oranges The little kid in the commercial catches his dad picking up one of his Halo Oranges and immediately adopts a posture of accusation.

His attitude and behavior toward women is worse than Charlie's character!  He's CRUDE.  He's DISGUSTING.   He's OBNOXIOUS.   Who likes this stuff? There is nothing funny, enjoyable, or appealing about a man who mooches off of someone, tries to ta
