Look, I get the point, if I were advertising on Facebook I'd be peeved too. But look at it this way, the Facebook news-feed is one of the most valuable assets on the internet, its a personal look into one's life, it's viewed by millions of individuals multiple times over the course of a day. If Facebook just throws ads from all of the things that you've liked over the years into that stream then there'd be less activity in general because the user's wouldn't be seeing what they came for, there friends, less activity hurts everyone invested in Facebook. Less activity wouldn't happen though, I think you would see a lot of people unlike things that they're tired of looking at, and then you'd be in an even worse position. I think the Facebook promote makes perfect sense.
