What is up with the political ads now on the home page?? Seems a tad hypicritical that we can't get into political conversations, but now are having politics shoved down our throats with banner ads? Frankly, I find it digusting, especially seeing who the ad is bashing! Being from Missouri, and knowing Jo Ann Emerson as a proven worker of her people for years, it's sad to see the ads for Tommy Sowers. I come on the BYC to get AWAY from all the noise and clutter of everyday life and media junk, then to see this? I realize it's, hopefully, a paying sponser, but come on. Leave the political mudslinging to the media where we can turn it off! I'm sick of it all already, and sure don't want to see it in here. JMHO
