Get a new car with air-conditioned seats from Mac Haik Ford of Austin!
http://www.kvue.com/news/local/stories/100....131d7f14d.html QUOTE The ad which was supposed to showcase air-conditioned seats in some of the newer models for sale posed the question "tired of the wetbacks?" Mac Haik fired the manager they said was responsible for the ad. now that is racism right there...  no way outta that one
