I'm with you on that She-Lion. I don't need any jackass politicians telling me what's good and not good for me but welcomes every damn tax dollar I pay for smokes! Waxman looks like he's been sniffin' too much nose candy or his mother carried him by the nose when he was just a mere child! :)

He sure is an ugly forker, isn't he?  Check out those nose holes!!!  LOL 

Wish I had his nose full of dimes. hahhah

Look again, I didn't say that. Dufarge said that to ME. Stop looking for insults where there aren't any.

Why do you care?!

Our lives are in the Lord's Hands. It's up to HIM when we die! And it won't matter one iota if we ever smoked or not!!!

Since you invoked his name, you might try asking him to assist you in smoking cessation. You almost need the power of God to crack the addiction of smoking. It wasn't easy for me anyway..

Once again, why do you care?  If the good Lord wanted me to quit smoking,  He would provide the way!

And don't be judging me

Yes I remember when your husband died, it was very tragic and I am sorry but why do you call me a dork? You insult people with impunity and then scream that *you* are being trashed and bashed (your words exactly) even when you haven't been.

Your search - schadenfauden - did not match any documents. 
Suggestions:
Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
Try different keywords.
Try more general keywords.
Looks like a German word. If it is, Google doesn't recognize it.............

"schadenfrauden"

It's a good word.

You ask "Why do you care."?

I don't know. Best answer I can give you is we're fellow FReepers. "That's what you do in a herd"

You stated you've smoked for a generation. There's not many people who've smoked that length of time and honestly not realized the damage it's done to them. And time has a cumulative effect - it adds up.

"There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers."

Under what authority does Congress give the FDA the power to regulate tobacco? The Constitution does not give Congress the power to regulate tobacco.

Heck, Lon Chaney had to go through, what I'm sure was a grueling make up session to get his nose holes to "perk up" in the "Phantom of The Opera"..........Waxman was born that way! Hehehehee........(I should stop now, but I may not. I can't stand that intruding, goody two shoes arse!).
