...in the same way that ads for deadly cigarettes are banned.

Doesn't take a seer to see where this is headed. It's time for a junk science study to proclaim that 400,000 die annually from hummer-related diseases.

One has to wonder how all of those protestors will travel to their points of protest, and further what impact this unnecessary display will have on that which they purportedly seek to protect.

Is it true that Hummer was trying to get Monica Lewinsky as a spokesperson?

So, if I want an environmentally destructive Hummer, do I just give the 'exotic dancer' more money, or do I need to arrange that in advance?

...hummer-related diseases.

What are the warning signs? Can I get a screening test somewhere?

It's only "an environmentally destructive Hummer" if she makes you feel the earth move.

Why we continue to humor the drug-induced paranoiac leftovers of the '60s and their younger, brainwashed acolytes never ceases to amaze me.

Hey, where is free speech? These are the same people that are protesting that the right wing forced CBS to take the "Reagans" off the air. Is this not true?
