Thumbs down Political ads on automotive website

Ok, Everybody has got their views in this matter. My particular rant is that we now have Obama ads on an automotive website.

ITS STILL 1 YEAR AND 3 MONTHS AWAY FROM ANY ELECTION AND NOW WERE GETTING THE ADS SHOVED DOWN OUR THROAT AGAIN? IT WAS ONLY A VEEEERRRRYY SHORT TIME AGO THE LAST BARRAGE ENDED. DO WE REALLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH THESE ADS HERE?

I know ads pay the bills, so I'm not completely ignorant to the fiscal side of the argument, but really, whether I like Obama or not, or choose to support a Republican candidate, CAN'T WE HAVE AN AREA WHERE THE BS STINK DOESN'T PERMEATE INTO OUR "SAFE ZONE" of recreation? I don't know about you but the Vette is a constant good thing, and I'm a little ticked that now we have to deal with BS ads while discussing our love in life. We can't even go to a professional game (where we used to get away from commercials and only see print billboards) without watching real commercials on the Jumbo-tron.

Really,,, this commercial age is waaaaaaay overboard. Please Rich, limit ads on here to things related to automotive goods or services like what I can see in the sidebar as I type this (Flash detailing, Antivenom, PPT Custom tuning etc).

P.S.
I do see a vote icon in the left sidebar , however before this is thrown into my face it's not a governmental election, it's simply a novelty for this website to be chosen as #1 on the Vette sites list....
