I find it funny that there are Republicon ads on DU. |
|
Just pulled up the front page and it said donate to Beohner to make him speaker of the house and stop the Pelosi reign. Talk about poor market research. I wonder if a Pelosi ad is in freeperland? Doubt it.

1. Sometimes these sites don't have control of the ads. |
|
One of my favorite science sites has a bunch of ads for snake oil miracle cures. Drives me nuts to see em there but I know ScienceDaily isn't endorsing them.

as it turns out, a lot of DU readers (especially the ones who don't donate, thus meaning you have to see the ads) are RWers.
Donate as little as $5 or $10 and the ads disappear.
