What is wrong with Google

I am trying to put together an ad to run on Google, and I put 'click here' on the button image. I got an error telling me 'Please remove 'Click' from your ad. Your ad text cannot contain universal call-to-action phrases such as 'click here,' 'link here,' 'visit this link,' or other similar phrases that could apply to any ad, regardless of content.'

So I took it out, but how stupid that you can't use a standard call to action. But no matter how I change the text, it still gives me the same error. Damned if I know what is wrong.

    One thing I noticed on an ad that appears frequenly on my site is that "Try it free" seems to be allowed.
    Maybe you could use this call to action instead since, apparently, it's allowed

      Is that an Image Ad or Text Ad?

      I get image Ads like that a lot on my download sites.
