Ads Gone Bad: The Taco Bell Chihuahua

What's next?
Animal activists against the ad of Geico for ridiculing a lizard?
Or other stupid Latinos protesting the Colombian ad by Juan Valdez for dressing him as "peon"?
Come on people! Get a life!!

The Taco Bell chihuahua was great. I loved the Godzilla ad, "Here, lizard, lizard, Lizard." Very funny. It's unfortunate they don't use the pup anymore. And, I agree the accent was accurate, Mexico is where the breed originated. The pooch even spoke spanish. A Poodle should have a french accent, and a Doberman Pincher should have a german accent. If they would have had him speak in perfect english, there would be people complaining, that the dog is from Mexico and he doesn't sound like it, and that fact is being ignored. Oh well, you can't please everybody.

You peple need to get a life! You aren't the only ethnic group in this country. No body ask you to come here in the first place. If you don't like our ads and the way we do things, go back where you came from. There was nothing wrong with the Taco Bell ads. They were cute, funny, and just plain entertaining. The dog was great. I have one and I would have been honored to have him do the commercials!

I always loved the Taco Bell dog and have often wondered why they quit using him. Political correctness!! How absurd!! Doesn't anybody have a sense of humor anymore? How could he possibly be offensive to anybody? He was just a cute little chihuahua (which is supposed to have originated from Mexico) so how and why would they object? This makes me think even less of Hispanics....

I think the current Taco Bell ads are really in poor taste, where they show this man going from store to store swiping/stealing the pennies next to the cash registers, and stealing the kids money from their stand. It may teach kids that if they need money, it is okay to go into a store and swipe the4 money next to the cash register. Pretty soon they are going to want more money and go into the store with a gun and robs the store.

Hey Mexicans, get over yourself. The dog is from China origanally, but became known as a MEXICAN CHIHUAHUA. I bet if I came to your "casa" for dinner, I would served some type of Mexican food. If you really don't like it, swim your greasy ass back across the river!!!

I for one am very tired of political correctness. It keeps people from enjoying life and each other. If you are so sensitive that a little ethnic humor can ruin your digestion like that, go home. I belong to the only ethnic group left in this country, that it is legal to make fun of. I grew up in East Tennessee and I am white. That's right folks, I am a hillbilly. My group is the butt of all sorts of liberal jokes, and no one says a word about it. I like tacos and I hate double standards.

I miss that chihuahua!

I LOVED the Taco Bell commercials with the talking dog. People that found the commercials offensive should wake up. HELLO the dogs are from MEXICO of course they are going to have an accent. I used to watch for them and laugh my butt off. Of course I eat at Taco Bell because of those commercials. Thank you TACO BELL!!!!!

The commericials were great.
End of story. Ignore those people/groups who just want $$$$ to keep their mouth shut and go away.
Keep Smileing

I'm getting so sick of everyone getting offended at everything. Cmon guys, its a cute little dog that alot of people, myself included, love. It spiked my interest in Taco Bell, which has grown into a love affair with their products. When will people put on their big kid undies and stop being offended by everything? You know what, I'm agreeing with a comedian. I'm offended by offended peope. go sue yourself.

One of the best ads ever. I always got a laugh out of "I think I'm gonna need a bigger box!" Taco Bell should quit being such political pansies and should have told those complaining to put it where the sun doesn't shine. Since they caved in to a bunch of stupid whiners, I will not eat there anymore.

Bring back the dog!! Those were the best commercials! We even collected all the "Santa Dogs" and other misc. talking stuffed dogs. Some folks need to lighten up! These were terrific ads!
