Ford is Evil...

We don't like to use this space much for ranting, but...

The Ford Motor Company is evil for taking the Peanuts theme song (actual title: "Linus and Lucy") and using it as background music in their most recent set of ads. That song represents childhood, and innocence, and (although it has been used in other Peanuts specials shown throughout the year) the Christmas season, and to hear it during a car commercial makes me want to scream. I know that other beloved songs have been turned into commercial soundtracks over the years, and I have been duly annoyed each time it has happened, but this is beyond the pale. We need to let Ford know how egregious their behavior is. I am hereby calling for a boycott of all Ford products until Ford removes the offending commercials from the air and takes out a full page ad apologizing for them in every daily newspaper in the country. (Having once owned a Ford vehicle, I know that their products aren't that good anyway, so it's not like this is a major sacrifice or anything.) Let our voice be heard!
