Default Just an observation

I know the forum has new owners, and to help offset the cost it takes to keep this forum up and running we now have ads.
I also understand I can "Click here to get rid of these ads" if I so choose. But for the most part they don't bother me, and some I actually enjoy.
What I find interesting, ( on a forum where "Politics" is taboo) why do we have to put up with some woman asking for our help to keep her husband from getting fired?

What ads? Really, I barely noticed them. If they help support the forum, no problem. Now if you could just press a button and get rid of the NEVER ENDING political ads on television and land line phones!!!!

As I said, I don't mind the ads, especially since they help finance this forum it's all the better.
The point I was making was how odd it is to have a forum where discussing politics is banned, but political ads are fine.
As Jerry pointed out, political ads on TV are enough to make anybody sick. And being on a "no-call" list is worthless.
