Is there ANYTHING that smokers will NOT have to subsidize?
(I think they should implement the "fat tax" on fast food, and share the burden with the fat folks so they appreciate the smoker abuse of the gubmint)....

I thought this was going to happen in the first 100 days?
How many poor smokers will give up health insurance premiums to fund their increasingly expensive addiction?
Why do they need to add 4B to a Farm Bill for Urban congressrats?? Is Do Nothing Nancy adding more Abortion Clinics to the Inner City??

Yes, this is the longest 100 days EVER.
They started off with a blast today. Accusing yet another Republican of “perjury” in their phony, baloney, plastic banana good time rock ‘n’ roller “justice” system and then threatening more “special counsels.” I’m just trying to figure out if this country has become more like the old Soviet Union or the Nazi’s Third Reich. It’s definitely closing in on those two models.
Seems to me they don’t have to do anything and their fortunes rise. Stand back and let Dubya be is incomprehensible self, stuck on 2003 talking points, and their fortunes rise.
No idea why they don’t just put things on cruise control.

Outside that, the Dem's are NOWHERE near united, hence, they cannot move any idea forward without Black Robes legislating from the bench or or the MSM twisting their ideas trying to make said ideas seem sane.
RNC/GOP, GET WITH IT! CONSERVATISM SELLS, ALWAYS DOES! Quit pussy footing around and sell OUR ideas!
Ferpetesake, they’re proposing ethics bills and all we can come up with is fetus bills? People are sick of that stuff. Why don’t we propose some tougher ethics bills. Why don’t we propose tax breaks. Why don’t we propose stuff people want to hear about? This fetus stuff will never see the light of day.
They’ll want to get some things accomplished to burnish their image — but not enough to delay, even for a minute, another vacation.
“Punishing” the GOP in ‘06 sure paid dividends.
The GOP was not in the woodshed long enough in 2006. They may get another trip in ‘08.
Well, you see, it was really 100 business days, each made up of 24 business hours, each with 60 business minutes made of of 60 business seconds. Their time won't be up until (sound of BtD's calculator keys clicking furiously) - oh, I figure 26 July 20016. It'll be a Tuesday.

If you took all the taxes off of tobacco, the poor could probably afford health care.
According to the RATS, they only used 7 hours of the first 100. Plenty of time to sell out the country and fill their pockets before summer vacation to Europe on our dollar.
Probably - of course, that means ALL of us.
Yea, but they were supposed to use their first 100 hours in their first 100 hours. ;-) Isn’t that what “first” means? Must be something akin to global warming credits. LOL!
Life inherently includes the opportunity for continuous learning. Whether one participates is a choice. ;-)
