Eathlink-- Democrats not ready for prime time

[jobycom]

Checking my email on Earthlink's webmail page today, the banner ad read "Democrats not ready for prime time-- click here."

I sent an email to their contact link politely explaining that I am a Democrat and don't much like being insulted by people I choose to do business with. I asked if they plan to continue to run such ads, so I will know whether to change providers.

Anyone else see this? Anyone mention it here recently?

1. Really?

I am thinking of switching to Earthlink. Let me know if you find anything out.

2. Could you elaborate?

I went to Earthlink to see what you meant but I don't get any banners at all on the webmail site. Which page did you see it on?

3. I'm sick of that Zomby phrase.

They used that on Howard Dean. What the hell does it mean???? Americans are so lobotomized by their TV's and it's insipid lack of similarity with the real fricking world, that unless someone looks and sounds like a TV sit-com actor or better yet a "reality" non actor, they can't be President.

I guess it does make sense now. They like the prototype "Loser" of all Reality shows combined who is in the White House now.

:argh:

4. I refreshed my webmail screen three times

and managed go get it.

Signed up for the RNC spam under an assumed name as well.

Hell, if you think this bothers you, wait until the campaign really starts.

5. Earthlink is run by a nutcase scientologist...
