Any way to get rid of ads like this?


Okay, I know that if I donate I won't see any ads at all, but hey. Seeing the "Will McCain Win? Will Obama win?" type ads was one thing. an ad actually accusing our next president of election fraud is way too much. So is there some way to get google to employ a little screening?

3. Send a PM to one of the Mods.
They can block the ads, but only after someone tells them they are there!

4. SodaHead has to be the dumbest website outside of Free Republic anyway.
The name says it all--it's for airheads. People who want to spend lots of time voting in useless online "polls," because it gives them the satisfaction of thinking their opinions have been "heard." I bet most of the people who spend time there don't ever cast a ballot for anything in real life.

5. Thanks, I blocked it.
It should disappear within the next 24 hours.
