To wit:

Now some folks' take on the picture is that it is a somewhat nostalgic depiction of what they had and lost.
My take is that it is Absolut's sad attempt at stirring up tequila drinking
I prefer this take on the ad myself:

The good news, is there are plenty of vodka selections in the store besides Absolut to choose from. Not that I would ever boycott a company...

What I read:
"In no way was it meant to offend or disparage, nor does it advocate an altering of borders, nor does it lend support to any anti-American sentiment, nor does it reflect immigration issues," Absolut said in a statement left on its consumer inquiry phone line.Blah blah blah ...
What they probably meant:
"We're sorry you misinterpreted our ad campaign, you bunch of idiots. Get a life and keep drinking our fine product."
"Viva le revolucion!"
