while the country they destroyed finishes crumbling down around these liberal/socialist doosh bag idiots. Quote: Durbin Urges MLB To Ban All Tobacco Use
KMOX-AM, by Brian Kelly and Brett Blume U.S. Senator Dick Durbin says whether they like it or not, professional athletes are role models for kids everywhere. That’s why the Illinois Democrat says it’s a big problem any time a Major Leaguer is caught on camera spitting out a big stream of tobacco juice. “I will tell you that the one group of Americans who are using tobacco more than ever are high school boys,†Durbin tells KMOX News. “And when you trace it, it turns out it’s because their sports heroes, those baseball players — one out of three of them — use smokeless or spit tobacco.†Durbin, along with fellow Democrat Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, are now calling on baseball commissioner Bug Selig http://stlouis.cbslocal.com/2011/02/18/ ... bacco-use/ |

Just like the fat pig first lady with her lardass complaining about obesity. Did you see the Super Bowl menu for the White House? Typical...

From the article: In a letter sent to MLB headquarters, Senators Durbin and Lautenberg write, “Tobacco-related products kill 443,000 Americans every year, and each day 1,000 American children and teenagers become new regular smokers. Those who use tobacco do so by choice, and I believe Senator Durbin is nothing if not pro-choice. He could save nearly three times as many innocent lives if he concentrated on reducing abortions in this country - those babies are the ones who truly have no choice whatsoever. |

Indiana governor says he would sign statewide smoking ban Is that not a nanny state position from a Republican interested in making a run for the White House? No disagreement from me - Daniels' position is every bit the 'nanny state' position. I don't smoke anymore, but a bar is not a bar if there is no smoke in it. |

Quote: Menino expands sugary drink ban Boston Globe, by Meghan E. Irons Mayor Thomas M. Menino said yesterday that he is expanding his ban on sugar-sweetened drinks in schools to include all city properties and functions, a sweeping restriction that means that calorie-laden soft drinks, juices with added sugar, and sports drinks like Gatorade will no longer be offered in vending machines, concession stands, and city-run meetings, programs and events. “It’s going to be bad for morale around here,’’ said Jim Hardy, who runs Station 10 Cafe at police headquarters, where officers get daily doses of soda, fruit juices, and sugary iced tea, along with their sandwiches. http://www.boston.com/news/local/massac ... ry_drinks/ I hope someone in Boston tells this commie to go fück himself |

Quote: Boston Mayor Thomas Menino KOs Soda, OKs Alcohol
Fox News Boston Mayor Thomas Menino has banned soda, sports drinks and sweetened ice teas from city property, according to a recent government press release. In an attempt to reduce the city’s rising obesity rates, Menino has banned all sugary drinks from city vending machines, cafeterias and concession stands, just one day after reaching an agreement with the Boston Red Sox that allows the team to sell mixed drinks at its ballpark. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/04/10/bo ... latestnews |
