It is soooooooooo difficult to be non-PC in a PC world.

I wish them all the success -- I am counting on them to be successful.

Does anybody know if Ann Coulter moved to Florida? She said she was leaving NY, because of the smoking ban, and moving to FL. But then Florida passed a smoking ban (70% approval by the voters).

We can still smoke in VA, but many restaurant owners don't allow smoking, which, as noted, is their right. So, I don't patronize them -- If they don't allow smoking indoors, I take my business elsewhere.

Thank you! I am the same way.

I know we shouldn't take it out on the business when the STATE imposes these bans, but the business owners should have seen this coming and done more to fight this ban.

I figure if they didn't fight to keep my patronage, then I won't be taking them anymore of my money.

Isn't the run for the President all about the ECONOMY? Well, these anti-smoking states and the Health Coalitions are undermining our economy and people need to wake up and smell the coffee??? (Or the richness in tobacco smoke).

We sure can!!! There are a few non-smoking places here, but by and large the majority do permit smoking. There are 3 places I frequent on a regular basis and the smoking sections in them are at least twice of the size of tthe non-smoking areas. Of course all the owners of those places are also smokers!!!

I don't know if Ann Coulter has moved or not, but the Florida ban is not as insidious as the NY ban, plus the weather is much more conducive to outdoor dining areas.
