Bill, come now. You don't expect us to believe that a thread entitled "conservatives are at it again" was to demonstrate equal blame on the anti-smoking legislation, do you? In fact, you contradict yourself by stating the republicans let "big business" go without checks, yet for some reason they would also put restrictions on tobacco. Is tobacco now a "small business"? If so, is Phillip Morris a "mom and Pop" shop? C'mon, Uncle, You wanted to have your cake and eat it too. Let's continue with productive and accurate dialog and drop this rhetoric intended to blame one party for ALL the sins in the world.
