I think this sort of censorship or refusal to work with certain companies that seems to be policy with Google and Paypal could be a big boost for bitcoin. If they won't handle their money then the censor-ship free bitcoin sure as well will.

Angela Keaton was on Free Talk Live this last Saturday night and they were discussing this very thing. Antiwar has long been trying to get donations since they lost most of their notoriety and funding once Obama got in the white house because the antiwar left is fraudulent.

Did they discuss the option of taking bitcoin donations?

They trying to silence "Antiwar" by cutting their funding... WOULD that be the solution?... I doubt it.. This will only make them stronger, with all the negative publicity Google is getting from this.

There are enough people with big pockets, who would step in and help them....  Grin

Rather than asking for donation, they can try out a-ads.com, adbit.co etc. There are also good ad services other than Adsense in FIAT world, e.g. BuySellAds.com, Media.com etc. In any case, there is no alternative of Direct Ads, which is used on BitcoinTalk.org.
