Ms. Brundtland is turning into quite a one-issue fundamentalist.

[Paul Atreides]

What about AIDS and homosexuals? If AIDS is the problem they make out, they need to go after the homos.

[Larry Lucido]

I dunno. It's all Greek to me.

[El Conservador]

Well, that shows that they are all for government intrusion in private homes...

[gorush]

"the head of the WHO argues that private homes should be subject to strict anti-smoking regulations."

Would that include the smoke that wafts out of the end of the muzzle shortly after the anti-smoking enforcers arrive at the door?

"Comparing passive smoking to sexual child molestation"

WTF?

[Paul Atreides]

If you watch all of the anti-smoking commercials aimed at teens, they are basically "Just Say No" commercials. When Nancy Reagan started Just Say No against drugs, she was sneered at, but her policy is being used in the case of smoking.

I'm wondering when they will make some ads dealing with teens and sex, using the Just Say No policy.

The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) is demanding a smoking ban inside private homes as well as in public areas. Comparing passive smoking to sexual child molestation, the head of the WHO argues that private homes should be subject to strict anti-smoking regulations.

Maybe? Maybe not.

I don't know. I can't read Norwegian.

But, but, that wouldn 't be political correct. How dare you suggest such a thing?

[EggsAckley]

This guy is whacked. It'll never fly.

[Paul Atreides]

I know. What could I have been thinking?

I wonder how long it will be until they have realized how many child molestors they have offended by comparing them to smokers.

[Paul Atreides]

Isn't it interesting how many freedoms are lost in a "liberal" society?

[Diddle E. Squat]

WHO are you? Who WHO, WHO who?

[Betteboop]

It's not often we get to read a posting in Norwegian on FR--unfortunately, I can't understand it!!

[Paul Atreides]

At least it was excerpted. Heaven knows we don't have enough of those on this site.

[OREALLY]

WHO ARE WHO ? Exactly...even old Canada Creten asked who is WHO ? They must be a big brother group of the U.N. !

[joesnuffy]

Han slakter Gros siste utspill mot røykerne.

LOL that was the funniest thing I ever heard....hahahaha riot... stop stop...your killing me

[billhilly]

And the lethal injection into homosexual's anus'?

[Calpernia]

Bump! Don't leave out the WTO

[Gabz]

Ms. Brundtland is turning into quite a one-issue fundamentalist.

There is no "TURNING INTO" she has always been this one dimensional fundamentalist.
