All these right wing banner ads on DU
Advertisements [?]
I know it's Google that's posting them, but I still feel violated.

So when I see an ad for Tea Party Patriots, or the Daily Cannibal, or some special offer from proflowers.com for Rush Limbaugh listeners, I take a couple of minutes to click on it a few times. If all these right-wingers are advertising on Google, they must have money to burn, so why not hand them a match? I obviously never buy anything on these sites, but since Google charges them for each click I figure I can help them waste a couple of bucks. And of course, since DU is carrying the ads, Google must be cutting them in for a couple of pennies of some right winger's money each time I do it.

Win-win.
