Dumb “Obama wants you to” ads – I am sick of them!

Just about every time I go to a new website, log into Facebook or am browsing a site – I am hit with one of these [and I am paraphrasing here]
- Obama wants you to get a reverse mortgage
- Obama wants you to go back to school
- Obama wants you to refinance your house
- Obama wants you to buy a house
- Obama wants Obama wants %$^&^(*))(
Sorry but Obama doesn't want me to do these things – the ad companies do.
Of course the wingnuts think otherwise and see this as another Obama plot 
to indoctrinate everyone.
If you read the bottom of these annoying ads you see the company that is placing the ad…. They are using words that Obama might have uttered like it's good to go back to or stay in school and making it into "Obama wants you to xxxx"
Very annoying and even with popups blocked these appear – some even open a new tab with their stupid ads….even tho I never clicked on any of them!
And the ads are produced by companies that use YOUR info – I bet only those of us who are seniors get the reverse mortgage one!
Any comments? please post below and thanks
I hate them also. But, just as with commercials on TV, I just simply mentally block them. Sometimes, I even amaze myself with my selective attention/inattention abilities. Lots of times when I am trying to watch a TV show I want to watch and 5 to 12 minutes of commercials come on, I will not have the slightest idea what was on the commercials when they are over. Now, if there is a dog in the commercial, I’ll be able to tell you about it. If I were Obama, I’d be mad as hell.
Thank you for the comment. I try to ignore them too but when they keep on coming at me – it’s harder. On FaceBook I clicked the dislike button often – so they stopped there.
