    Political Endorsements

    I find paid political endorsements in poor taste for this website.

    Me too - but I haven't seen any. Are they showing up in your ad banners?

    Yes, I'm on firefox. It's encouraging a Yes vote on 8 to protect marriage between a woman and a man.

    It doesn't matter if I'm for or against. What matters is that this is not a discussion in one of our forums, but an advertisement. Across the top of every page. Also along the left side in a banner. It's simply wrong in my not so humble opinion on this type of website.

    We (I... as you don't appear to see it) have no choice but to view it if I want to participate on this website. Period.

    Hmm - since there's no prop 8 here, I'm betting it's google feeding you an ad selected by your IP address. It should be all over by the end of the day . . .
