Those damn Finnish Swedish immigrants, trying to take over our country!
Absolut is a Swedish vodka-like liquid.

Is it? Oh well.

Are you kidding? If it came down to that, we'd just sit on them.

i think that even if we annexed the entire region, we'd still have a split. we'd be too polarized; too different of people to really be under one roof. and what would've happened during the civil war?

Since they said "In an Absolut world" (i.e. one where you are drunk), I wouldn't be too worried. Remember, people can't think straight when they are drunk, so obviously they would be prone to thinking Mexico owns so much more territory than it really does.

I guess you would have to stir things up a bit with the ads if you want to sell vodka in the land of tequila and mescal...

Good things us "northerners" don't about history...

Absolut tastes like shit anyway. I'll stick with my Grey Goose or Kettle One..... or Vox..... or Effen, which are all better than absolut anyway.

During the weekend we have received several comments on the ad published in Mexico. We acknowledge the reactions and debate and want to apologize for the concerns this ad caused. We are truly sorry and understand that the ad has offended several persons. This was not our intention. The ad has been withdrawn as of Friday April 4th and will not be used in the future.

In no way was the ad meant to offend or disparage, or advocate an altering of borders, lend support to any anti-American sentiment, or to reflect immigration issues.

To ensure that we avoid future similar mistakes, we are adjusting our internal advertising approval process for ads that are developed in local markets.

This is a genuine and sincere apology,

This actually isn't the first alcohol ad (budweiser, corona, tecate) where I've seen something along the same lines.

But in this case, who cares? Absolut sucks.

lol, I googled "Absolut sucks" hoping to find an Absolut parody ad to post, and the internets is filled of "who gives a shit, I'd rather drink battery acid"...go check it out for yourself.
