Some of the copy on the ads being pushed to my site is just really bad. I noticed you can play around with the colors to whiteout the text and www. I just want to display the text link. Does google see a problem with this?

Gut feeling: yes. Don't get caught :-)

I tried to whiteout the 'Ads by Google' link but couldn't do that. They factored it in for themselves but not for the advertiser? I know I won't be buying adwords anytime soon like they recommended to me. <snip>

From the AdSense policies:

Elements on a page must not obscure any portion of the ads, and the ad colors must be such that the ad text and URL are visible.
