I worked in NYC for years. When Bloomberg brought on the smoking ban there I knew it was only a matter of time before it was the law of the land everywhere.

The worst part about the NYC ban was that you could get around it by having a specially ventilated closed off section. We had the same thing in Buffalo. Businesses spent thousands of dollars to comply, and then the state turned around and banned it entirely, in the middle of the night during the beginning of the Iraq invasion when everyone's attention was elsewhere. Business were out all that money with no compensation.

Remind me why I live in this state again?

If you believe that, and that idiot runs for President and wins, we may as well kiss our butts good-bye!  And not just because of the smoking issue, either.

What tees me off is:  He went over to Turkey for a "visit," and sat on the floor with all the Turks who were all smoking.  This idiot never said one word about it!  Just kept grinning that surpy smile of his.
