LOL, a Joe Wilson for Congress ad at the top of the front page?

[liberalhistorian]

You've gotta be kidding me, right? I thought they were talking about a different Joe Wilson, so I actually clicked on the link. Big mistake. Got an eyeful about how that "boy" in the White House (it didn't actually say that, but you know that's what was implied!) and his Washington liberal allies were going to destroy everything and how only HE could save us from evil gubmint-run health care (but you'll take those massive federal dollars flowing to your state in other respects, though, eh, Joey?), etc., etc.

Nowhere did it talk about his membership in confederate and other racist organizations. And NOWHERE did it mention that HE and HIS family have had that evil gubmint health care (the military plan) for over forty years and that he's come out on record saying how happy he is with it. Nowhere did it mention that he hasn't had to deal with the private insurance vultures that he wants to stick the rest of us with. And nowhere at all did it mention his EIGHT votes AGAINST bills regarding expanding TRICARE (the military health plan) for veterans and FOR bills cutting veteran's benefits that were introduced by DEMS. Lying, hypocritical scumbag motherfucker.

So I have to laugh at whoever on his campaign put that ad on DU, of all places. Might as well put an Obama ad on a KKK site. LOL.

1. It is a PPC add

2. I noticed that.

I've seen some Bob McConnell ads on here too.

4. It is a google ad

So it is fed dynamically, I don't think DU has control over what adds it receives with Google ads.

3. I see ads for the Republican governor candidate here in Ohio on occasion.

8. Are you talking about John Kasich?

If so, then YUCK. As a former Ohioan, I well remember that dipshit. Problem is, he's just popular enough there that he might get in. Especially considering the very disappointing, piss-poor job Strickland is doing.

5. That's pretty interesting...

Maybe you already know this, but in case you don't...

If you have a star, you have the option to turn off those ads.

I hate how they clutter up the pages, so I did that.

:hi:

6. And ad for us to poop on!

7. Here will be your responses: Donate!

How long would I last if i started campaigning for Joe Wilson on here? What if I payed for it?

I'd donate more if I could post some threads that broke the rules without them being deleted or moved. Closet thing is stickies.

"please keep in mind that most of our members come to this website in order to get a break from the constant attacks in the media" yet are pleased to find ads for asshole republicans?

just pay up *cough* and we'll take those ads right away...
