Did you check the Prop 1 ad for Maine appearing on the Daily Strength website. Very inappropriate I think. I find it surprising Daily Strength would accept advertising from a group alienating another. I didn't think that's what this website was about.

" FYI: this will be voted on tomorrow. I'll let you know how it turns out. From Fair Wisconsin:
The Wisconsin State Assembly is poised to vote on the Healthy Youth Act next Tuesday, and they need to hear from you.
This groundbreaking bill requires schools that teach sex education to do so in a responsible, comprehensive manner that includes information about sexuality, abstinence and birth control to prevent teen pregnancies, and STDs including HIV/AIDS.

This piece of legislation not only requires that class materials are not biased towards sexual orientation, but also will ensure that LGBT youth receive sexuality education that is medically accurate and includes information about reducing risk behaviors.

Fair Wisconsin believes that it is only through comprehensive and medically accurate sex education that our youth will learn the lessons necessary to reduce their risk, stay healthy and build a safe learning environment and community.

That’s why Fair Wisconsin has joined Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin and the Health Youth Coalition to educate our legislators about the need for this critical legislation and its impact on the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. "

" why is i that some people twist the sentence (note not directed at the OP but politicians) "sexual education for all genders and orietnations," into "there teaching our children to be homosexuals," . . . is it just me or does that just sound like dark ages crap?

is this not the 21st century and yet we are still going over the same things over and over and over again? "

" Here's the response I received from Daily Strength after I sent them a complaint:

Hi,
Thanks for alerting us. We understand your concern. Unfortunately, Google controls which advertisements are placed on the site. Because the advertisements are randomly generated, we are not always able to see which advertisements that our users see. To take any actions we need the actual URL of the advertisement.

If possible, when you see the ad, please click the link. Once clicked, please copy and paste the advertisement's URL (it's link) into an email and send it to us.

From there, we can block the advertisement.

Thanks so much and I apologize if this matter has caused you any inconvenience.

Warmest Regards,
DailyStrength Support "

" what DS address do we use to send it to them? did you do so Chuck? I have no problem doing it too,but don't know what address to use. This has been going on for how long now? Don't they screen advertisers? How cruelly and egregiously ironic that this is occurred and is still occurring. Horrible!! What if a suicidal teen who is on the edge logs on and sees this crap? Good Gravy!! "
