Yeah, dammit!! I don't want to see iRex ads!! I hate coming on to the MR site and getting force-fed ebook readers (other than the Kindle, of course).
You know .... I realized lately, that I simply do not see the ads anymore. Not at any site. They are just so much white noise. And, as for political ads?? I can honestly say that they do nothing at all to sway my vote. I do not make voting decisions based on advertising ... I also don't purchase products based on advertising.
Candidates ... I read as much as I can about them and their views and vote accordingly.
Products .... I generally go with something I've either had long experience using, or I get a chance to try something out at a friend's house, or a friend recommends it.
I never saw, heard or read, an advertisement that told me the whole truth (and nothing but ...). You think Proposition 8 is an abomination?? Then, do what I did ... vote against it.
