How about a graphic of a wine-o throwing his guts up on side of a bottle of Merlot?

Next up from our overbearing nanny state Govt. that truly believes Americans are stupid and need to be guided every step of the way through life would have to be a picture of Oprah nude on every box of twinkies.

The more I think about this the more P.O.d I get. Congress gave the FDA the power to pass laws last year in what bill? Why don't they put up billboards with the new warnings so everyone can be offended? Why just smokers? Believe me they will get around to every last bit of freedom enjoyed by anyone eventually. This has to be in violation of obscenity laws somewhere. Kids will be having nightmares. The Govt. makes more $$ on a pack of ciggys than the tobacco Co.s so maybe they should be trying to find ways to keep smokers happy, healthy, and smoking to help fund all the social(ist) programs they are busy dreaming up every second of every day.
