“She got out because every damned one of those ethical complaints had teeth.”-TA declaring a fact that wasn't a fact but a falsehood. Uh, Palin's book, being currently fact checked by media buzzards, says you are not telling the truth. You did read the book but mouthed off before you got to the real story about the Chicago Way and how one uses ethics complaints? The buzzards haven't found any examples such as you describe in ANY records so why the wild goose chase that I should trek up to Alaska to re check records when it is just a whole lot easier for you to retract what is becoming a long running lie on your part?

It will never go away. There are councilors there who want to be able to have a night out with friends at a neighborhood bar/pub and they don't want there to be smoking there. They also know their kids visit, or will likely visit, smoking places in Broad Ripple. They want these places to be smoke free as well.

This has nothing to do with protecting the health of a handful of folks, none of whom are having a gun pointed at their head forced to work in these businesses. It is all about a few folks with power who are pissed off because some of the neighborhood pubs they want to go and mingle at aren't smoke free. They hate smoke and have power, so why not strip the rights away from others.

This country is following the same path as every other empire in the past. History will repeat itself, and we are stripping away so many rights from individuals, in addition taxing them to the point where they won't be able to live...eventually more and more people will decide it is better to join the welfare layabout, do nothing class.

Fact Checker–you're right. It was Louie. A colorful campaign, too.

Pascal–you might want to revisit the State of Alaska's records. I was right.

I question whether TA is a man at all. (He) usually posts like a bitchy woman. (His) visceral hatred for Palin reinforces that belief.

“She got out because every damned one of those ethical complaints had teeth.”-TA declaring a fact that wasn't a fact but a falsehood. It is not just that his memory is failing but as is typical of liberals, it is also very selective. Interesting that he cannot bring himself to a public retraction when he “effed up” but the longer it takes him to fess up the more the suspicion grows that he is incapable of recognizing truth and is just another liberal hack liar. What is it? Man or woosie?

We already have a ban. What you anti-smoking zealots want is total prohibition -- but are too fracking cowardly to come out and say so.

I FINALLY saw ONE person on the news this evening -- a cocktail hostess -- say that working in a nightclub where adults chose to smoke, bothered her. Ergo, she was happy with the efforts of the SFI pukes.

Why didn't this so-called adult exercise her option to work at a smoke-free nightclub? Certainly there are some of them around.

Or, did the evil pro-Liberty folks hold her at gunpoint and force her to work in servitude at the evil smoking establishment?

Last time I checked, becoming a cocktail waitress didn't require a college degree, and there is no waiting list that I'm aware of.
