Re: Political Ads
I don't know if I am getting them or not. I am so used to "tuning out" ads on web sites it wouldn't make much difference to me. I would guess this may be the case with other users on this site as well.

It is not like the ads are not available to all sides. Any candidate, who believes it would be advantageous to advertise here, has the ability to buy an ad, just like anybody, from Icom, to Radio Mart. Selling a spot, is not a prejudiced act. It would only be wrong, if one side or the other, or, one advertiser, or another, were to be given preferential treatment, or more space, for the same $$$, than the other. I, personally have no issue with political ads, for those whom I support, AND those whom I do not. It is simply a sign of the times. Politicians want to pander to every constituency group, that they believe might benefit their election. It's that simple.
If you don't love it leave it. Let this...be your warning, when you're running down my country man, you're walking on the fighting side of me.
