I can't believe these ads

[bluescribbler]

"Polito for Treasurer
No Pensions For Pols! Clean Up Beacon Hill
www.KarynPolitoForTreasurer.com"

"Help Send Bob Home
Let's end the Pelosi/Etheridge stranglehold on Congress.
www.ReneeForCongress.com"

"No-Dem-Ber T-shirts/Mugs
They can ignore your voice, but not your vote. Say "No" to Dems now.
www.NoDemBer.com"

If I were to post anything resembling this crap, I'd be tombstoned, and rightly so. I recognize that DU needs sponsors, but to see these three ads at the top of the page is just too much. Isn't there any way that DU can screen the ads before they appear? :wtf: :mad:

3. they will tell you to donate

though you could donate $1000 and still be tombstoned for posting that content... so buy a google ad and you can post whatever you want.

Quite a racket: Charge people to put ads with rule-breaking anti-dem content on the site, then charge the users who must abide by the rules to remove the rule-breaking anti-dem ads.

5. Or maybe download adblock for firefox and quit whining about something

that the admins have said over and over again that they have no control over.

8. If an ad is particularly offensive, pm or email admin (link @ bottom of every page)

donate $5 and you can shut them off, or use a browser like firefox. Otherwise, the google ads show up based on what is written on a page. If everyone posts Yak Milk over and over, you should get ads for Yak Milk.

9. I like knowing that these types of ads are on DU...

better to waste their money here, than to spend it where it might actually make a difference.
