I don't remember if it was a national commercial or just a local one, but this past President's Day (like a week ago) a car company was advertising its "Forgotten Presidents Day Sale" honoring Millard Fillmore for installing the first bathtub in the White House.
Thanks for linking this, it makes the commercial all the more hilarious, just more proof that this "story" won't ever die.
