Well, some of them anyway.

(P.S.:I'm sure the folks at The Politico are going to be thrilled to find their story on The Drudge Report with a tremendously obvious typo in it.)

I have to laugh at this (and I notice some respondents at that link noted the same thing): these pampered congresscritters are up in arms because they can't buy cigarettes nearby, while they can still smoke in their offices and the rest of us have been pushed outside at our workplaces, restaurants, and even bars.

I recall that when Michael Bloomberg banned smoking in New York City with "no exceptions," Rudy Giuliani said (close paraphrase) "I hope you'll include an exemption for my annual cigar party, Mike, or I'll have to withdraw my support from you." Giuliani made it sound lighthearted, but Bloomberg exempted him immediately.

If those with great wealth and power had to live by the same rules the rest of us do, things would change in a hurry.

That'll never happen, of course.

Pelosi pushes gourmet menu

It would seem to me that all this foreign fruit and veggies are contributing to "Global Warming" as they are transported from around the world.

I also wonder how the land fills have grown as the vendor has to dispose of dated produce.

Hence the higher prices for what is offered!

Bruce>>>>Aims - Shoots - Scores!!!

Good one, Nancy Pelosi is contributing to Global Warming...love it.

This ridiculous ban reminds me of the law that's always being pushed to ban the sale of ammunition on New Years Eve day. Now let me think ? ? ? ? Maybe I can buy my bullets on December 30. Yeah, that works. Just another feel-good symbolic BS law.

Listen the only way to defeat all this crap is to vote in neo-conservatives into congress and across america. Life was sure sweet befor the antis took over in congress and the senate....
