Many of the ads displayed on these pages tend to be of a political nature. Likewise, I do not know if anyone else has noticed by many of them are fairly Republican/GOP/Right Wing/New Right oriented.
I have been working on a style for the site, but I have not yet decided on what to do about these ads. Obviously, I am not going to run advertisements for the very organizations I am contemptuous of in the first place.
Also, I think it is interesting that there was so much animosity toward the Obama campaign being “grassroots” and now the Right is throwing big bucks into their “grassroots” campaigns. There are ads about “taking back American” and “Fighting Socialism” popping up from Adsense quite frequently.
I was able to block the Sarah Palin and Ann Coulter ads as well as the Tea Party propaganda and Conservative pollsters, but it is getting to be too much.
I do think it is funny. The Tea Party Movement is using a lot of tactics from the Free Speech Movement and Socialist/Communist movements that were developed in the 1960s. Now they are using Obama Campaign tactics.
Maybe they will also start caring about the less wealthy, non-aristocratic, less conforming people who also live in their country and contribute to the nation.
I know… they are just using the political tactics, none of the ideology. One can still hope.
In the meantime, I’m working on ao solution for these ads. If I do not come up with one, I will just take them all down and have to go without my $3 a year generated from ad placements.
