Does the green helmet guy advertisment bug anyone else?

[Kurmudgeon]

I don't like advertisements that come out with the President's name, then I'm supposed to convince or otherwise influence him to do what the advertisement wants. And I'm far from convinced that the Keystone XL pipeline is even a good idea.
The GOP is for it, so automatically it's a good idea to be skeptical.
Here's a bit more info on the subject.

Mainly though, the guy in the helmet's smirky face just irks me. Pardon me please, but it just does.

1. Keystone is an environmental disaster on so many levels,

from the very dirty, energy-intensive extraction of oil from the Canadian tar sands, to the possibility/probability of pipeline ruptures, to the greenhouse gases that will result from burning that crap, that it is a thought-crime against the biosphere to even contemplate it.

2. That's why I'm surprised the ad is allowed here, just saw it again when I checked back on this link.

It's very insistent, I don't like being beat over the head with ideas that just become more and more obviously bad.

4. Buy yourself a star & it will go away.

I had no idea that you were talking about an ad on DU.

3. I haven't seen that one but I absolutely loathe the one with the pig on the zip line.
