What I will never understand is why some people have such a problem with cell phones! They are an amazing convenience - and since they have to be purchased (and the government is not YET supplying them gratis to the underprivledged), I don't see where a conservative would complain about my choice to purchase one.

If they cause harm, then it was my choice to use it, just as a smoker currently has the choice to smoke or not. I sit in front of a computer, I have a microwave oven, I drive an SUV...... all my choices, yet some get their panties in a bunch over a cell phone......... so dramatic, so silly..........

Yes, but you see, if anyone in your family has a monetary interest in the commodity (gasp!), or if a multinational corporation has any role in it's manufacture or distribution (triple gasp!), then the commodity (and your opinion of it) is suspect to many otherwise halfway-intelligent Freepers.
