Okay, so I was minding my own business bitching about gay stuff with the gays on the gay thread when, out of nowhere, I saw a tacky ass McCain-Palin ad:

I'm just curious how it got here...

 

Does this site use purely Google AdSense?

    If that's the case, where does UO find itself on the logarithm to tell some computer at google that the UO forumers have a gay thread that needs some Conservitizin'

 

Or, was that ad purchased by McCain-Palin specifically for this site.

    If that's the case, then the battle in Ohio must be tighter than I thought, because I can't see much return in investing on UrbanOhio (no offense)

 

Any thoughts?

HAHA, whoops.  That's in the thread title too, isn't it?

Those are from google adsense.  I'm going to see if I can block them, we don't need to help the republican ticket at all!

You don't need to block them (DanB would be pissed)

 

I was just curious if it was an actual targeted ad that the McCain camp paid for.  I'm glad it's not.

Wow...  with no smiley emoticon I can only assume that you are actually serious.

^fair enough!

Adsense is probably just picking up on key terms and displaying the appropriate ad.  And no I'm not going to block them, most of our members know who they are voting for without the help of any ad they see.  :)

Cheers!  I just got word that there's a Nordstom Rack ad on that same page now...so it looks like the problem at Google HQ has been corrected.  :)

Thank you for not blocking them.  Assuming that everyone on the board will not be voting for him is a bad assumption.  I'm still not certain who I am voting for.

I'm using the eeny meeny miney moe method. JK

I've got better things to be pissed about. 

I want to see a Nader/Gonzo ad!! :wink:

I commend you for that...sorry for being accusatory.

I recognize that line from Tommy Boy.

 

 

I can only quote my partner (and I'm not sure where he got this crass saying): "You can sh!t in one hand and wish in the other and see which fills up first!" ;-)

 

If McCain/Palin wants to spend their advertising dollars supporting Urban Ohio, that's fine with me!

I've got an ad on the bottom now that says, "THE ORIGINAL MAVERICKS  McCAIN*PALIN"

 

I really don't get that...have either of them looked up Maverick in the dictionary?  It's not pretty.

Who is the tall, dark stranger there?

Maverick is the name.

Ridin' the trail to who knows where,

Luck is his companion,

Gamblin' is his game.

 

Smooth as the handle on a gun.

Maverick is the name.

Wild as the wind in Oregon,

Blowin' up a canyon,

Easier to tame.

 

Riverboat, ring your bell,

Fare thee well, Annabel.

Luck is the lady that he loves the best.

Natchez to New Orleans

Livin on jacks and queens

Maverick is a legend of the west.
