You pay eighty cents a pack, and you think you live free? What an amazing thing.

We figured it out: all Augusta had to do was tax every can of beer by one cent and that would have taken care of their budget. But no, they had to lay this tax all on the backs of the smokers again!

Good to see you here, sweetheart!

I had a guy the other day explaining to me what a nice guy Baldacci was. I had to explain that being a nice guy with a low watt IQ does not translate into being a good manager of the people's money.

They love their hometown boy here...

"And this makes it right?," says the Madame Dufarge Coalition on Smoking or Homicide.
