1. Me, too!

What button do I hit? I hear donors (who have stars) can turn off the ads, but I don't know how to do it.

On edit:
Go into 'Options.' Go into 'Preferences.' Go down to last item, and you can say 'NO' to 'Google Ads.'

I have always left them on, but the Jesus Camp Ad did it for me - no Google ads.

15. I was ... uh .. uninformed ... until someone pointed it out.
Oh, well, we have so much to think about these days ... thanks to the Chimpy administration.

18. I cannot thank you enough for this information
If I had a million dollars, one thing I would do is give enough to DU so they can cancel that damn ad!!

19. HeeHee.
I DID do the research, and found out that it is a film about the destructive radical religious right; HOWEVER, I think that they have to change their ad. It was obnoxious, and people didn't get it.

20. I totally understand that
I actually had heard of this movie from another source before I saw the ad here on DU. I applaud the filmmakers, but I just can't take the ad over and over again!

6. That one won't come off because it's in the Lobby.
At least, I can't turn my lobby ads off. Can you?

5. I visited the site...
The movie sounds pretty chilling. I don't think I'd want to watch the whole thing. I'm not sure who makes money off of it...

11. Have you watched the trailer?
It's not what it seems to be. It's a film exposing the propaganda.

16. Oh, I realize that
it's just depressing as hell to look at those poor brainwashed kids' faces. I used to be one of them, and it just triggers me to no end to see it happening to other kids. :(

12. I must be blind. All I keep getting is either the "Become a U.S. citizen"
ad and the "Gay Auto" ad. :hi:
