The conscience of the ultra liberals of Massachusetts is pricking for all the abominations they allowed the last few years and had to soothe their conscious with some kind of "moral issue" and looks like they found something to get their teeth into....

[Y2Bogus]

We're going to ban transfats, but the legislature here recently overrode Romney's veto so that they can give free needles to junkies.

[Little Pig]

Actually, I don't have much of a problem with this, so long as it is ok for the food producers to go back to the ingredients trans-fats replaced. Cooking with butter and lard made food taste better anyway.

"It's basically killing people," Koutoujian said.

So is homosexual activity, but I doubt they're going to ban that...

[NaughtiusMaximus]

I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiener".

You are sooo on the money, Cripplecreek.

Robert Burns saw it too, in his poem about a pathetic clerk addressed to a sausage:

Poor devil! see him owre his trash,/ As feckless as a wither'd rash,/ His spindle shank a guid whip lash,/ His nieve a nit:/ Thro bloody flood or field to dash,/ O how unfit!

("Nieve a nit" = "Fist a gnat.")

The ultimate PC male and the wave of the liberal future.

We all better remember the Heinous Harridan's words, "We are going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." She will do for the entire country what Massachusetts and other nanny states want to do. If this witch becomes President, "1984" is going to look like a picnic.

This should destroy the Dunkin Donuts franchise. But I wouldn't worry. They're not a big employer.

[Disturbin]

Good one! That is priceless.

[Disturbin]

Let me make a correction, if I may:

This should destroy the Dunkin Donuts franchise. But I wouldn't worry. They're not a big employer of illegal aliens.

[chiefqc]

I thought they were elected officals so why are they trying to be everones mommy?

Next step will be to tell you how many childern you are allowed to have, to be follow thereafter to tell you that if you have two boys then the next one must be a girl and if it's another boy you will be fined or the baby will be removed from your family.

[virgil]

These nutjobs are trying to starve us to death.

[this_ol_patriot]

This should destroy the Dunkin Donuts franchise.

So how do they expect people to find a cop?
