Screw these Tea Parties.

We need to dress up like Indians and dump a tobaccoo ship into the harbor.

Tea parties mean the destruction of property and abject defiance of the facism we have now. Not gathering and creating a public assembly that will be ignored by the media as it always is.

There’s a version here from a FReeper:

Its worse than that. Completing the course means you can get a free marriage license, woo hoo.

[sauropod]

I was unaware of Mr. Blair’s version.

I was struck by this and remembered the priest from WWII that wrote the original.

[libertarian27]

Oh - you were looking for the Original-Original.

Try this First they came. It is a poem attributed to Pastor Martin Niemöller.

The water has been scalding hot for some time now...but most frogs are already dead to the pain. They don't even know what they are feeling.

Thankfully, I believe there are enough still left who do, and who have already hopped out of the pot, to make a difference in 2010 and then 2012.

I hope and pray that is the case. Otherwise, sooner or later, the pot itself is going to have to be tipped over and emptied before things have a chance to return to normal.

Thanks, I’m buying a box (or two) of stogies on my way thru Kentucky tomorrow, way cheaper than here in Fla.

[sauropod]

I agree. However, the politicians are totally misreading the anger in the country right now.

If they’re not careful, the pot *will* get tipped over.

I placed an order with Cigars International just the other day.

[trooprally]

Just checked my supplier and the price increase is already been added on. Almost $13 a box more.

This is also going to cut into the cigars given to the soldiers at Walter Reed.

Nanny State Ping.

Thanks to Sauropod for providing a great break down on the tax increase.

Tomorrow my husband will be picking up some more sterile potting medium so we can get our tobacco seeds started in the greenhouse. Right coolbreeze???????

[Gabz]

Grow your own tobacco and pay no taxes at all. It’s easy and you get a lot per plant. Processing is tricky, but there are instructions all over the web. Nice looking plants as well if you let them flower

Just remember that you can not plant more than 1/10th of an acre. I believe that is somewhere in the vicinity of about 4,500 square feet. Make sure you let several of the plants flower, so you have a source of seeds for next year :)

Thanks! Ping to Ernst.

[Conspiracy Guy]

I have started my slow gradual path to stopping, it’s charted out. Granddaughter is 1 year old Grandson due any day. Gonna put my smokin money into my grandkids.

But I will not be a know it all exsmoker.

Keep me on the list.

[mysterio]

I’m quitting as soon as my stock runs out.

Easy Way to Stop Smoking by Allen Carr. It's a book, it's fifteen bucks, and it will make quitting pretty painless. Good luck.
