BEST SUPER BOWL AD

By malkin

Hands down, it was the Anheuser-Busch ad honoring our military. Simple, elegant, inspired, and inspiring. Watch it here.
herosalute.com

Reminded me of this soldier's homecoming and this soldier's homecoming and these soldiers' homecoming experiences.

The ad says it all: Thank you.

Update: The New York Times can't resist

nytimes.com the Anheuser-Busch ad. Here's what NYT reporter Stuart Elliott wrote in his review of Super Bowl ads:

What follows is an assessment of some of the best and worst other commercials. The spots described below are among 35 provided to reporters before the game, out of the total of 50 commercials that were scheduled to run.

Anheuser-Busch A gauzy valentine to American troops, which ended with the Anheuser-Busch corporate logo superimposed on screen, was touching, but some viewers may have wondered whether "Busch" had been misspelled.

"Some viewers?" Which ones, besides Mr. Elliott's Times' colleagues, huh? Speak for yourself, buster.

They just can't give it a rest, can they? Not even on Super Bowl Sunday. Crikey.

<Another John Kerry Flip-Flop>
