Williams Proposes Bonds Backed by Tobacco Funds:

For Your Own Good:

The Fat Patrol is Closing In!:
By Joanne Jacobs. They'll tax your cheeseburger and lecture you to boot The Fat Patrol is closing in.
From The Mailbag:
-Once a blood donor, I refuse to donate blood any more because my blood is obviously 'tainted' by smoking.
- I no longer fill out that part of my driver's license which asks me to donate my organs.
- Don't do jury duty -- after all, we are 'addicts' and disabled thus we cannot be counted upon to deliver a 'fair verdict'.
....why would I want to help those who are oppressing me?"
-- Pat
