Here in the Tick household, we smoke every time we see Obama, Gibbs, Pelosi, Reid, Rahm, &etc on the teevee.

I’m afraid that kind of smoking is bad for us too. So maybe we should outlaw Obama, Gibbs, Pelosi, Reid, Rahm...

Watch, they’ll do like what has happened with over the counter allergy med’s - you’ll have to have your driver license scanned in order to buy smokes.

You are exaggerating a little. This is about families, so it must be good, no?

Tell that to the drug warriors. At least they aren't kicking in the doors and killing the pets of tobacco smokers yet.

Some places have been doing that for years, in conjunction with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and various state and federal departments.

The legal age for buying smokes is 18, for beer it's 21. I get carded for smokes before I get carded for beer------- I'm 49.

Get the government out of the health care business, and people will be free to do as they please again. You know, they'd have that liberty stuff our military has fought for generations to protect.
Overnight, 'the cost of health care' issue would be solved.

Yes I am sure.

He wants to own NC and toebaccy crops and next he will make a law that you cannot have a garden in your yard.

He loves and cares for you SO MUCH!

-Establishes a mechanism to assess fees on tobacco companies and traders to finance FDA oversight of the industry (Sec. 101).

More tax increases on tobacco. The black market should be on the verge of exploding into the tobacco market anytime now.
