Audi's Superbowl ad

Anyone see it? I can appreciate the clean diesel technology, and the toungue in cheek "Green Police".

But at the same time, I was more than a bit disturbed by the Green Police...

Glad to see the Saints win, I always love an underdog...

Audi jokes now, but I wouldn't put it past the gubment to empower some form of green police. Might be here say, but I've read the DOE wants to have green swat teams that go into communities and inspect houses to make sure they're up to "green" spec, and if not, time for an overhaul.

"I'm from the government and I know what's best for you"
