5% of all deaths from diseases of the circulatory system are
attributed to alcohol.


I'm in favor of banning the growth and sale of all tobacco products.
Thought you'd like to know that.

But people want it. And it is less dangerous than alcohol. Will the

government and tobacco. This country was founded on freedom of choice.
1984 is happening.

Damn straight. Used to be a good $5 cigar was a good cigar. A $5
cigar in today's money is about $45.

That is just obscene.

And when Obamessiah lifts the Cuban embargo, what the hell are they
going to sell to the US then? Sugar?
