Another group of politicians are trying to oppose their will upon their citizens. This time it’s Mayor Michael Bloomberg and friends. They have decided to limit soda type drinks to 16 ounces. Seriously? Get a grip Mike. Most places put 8 ounces of ice in the damn cup. In your brilliance, you decided refills are OK. So what your implying is the 10 calories someone burns going back to the fountain will make a difference?

According to fox news, “The ban would not apply to diet sodas, fruit juices, dairy-based drinks or alcoholic beverages.” If you are so smart how come you don’t know that diet sodas have been proven to be more fattening than regular drinks? Fruit Juices? Do you have any idea how much sugar is in most fruit juices.
Here’s a tip. Outlaw wide straws. People will drink less.
These mini tyrants just keep adding insult to injury. They continue to outlaw everything in the name of Security, Hearth, and Equal Rights. When in reality they are just grabbing more power to feed their over sized egos.
Yesterday, I mentioned how saying Jesus in school has been banned and public profanity was banned by a small town in Mass. Now, we can add large sized sodas. Next they are talking about going after popcorn? I can just see it now; instead of buying one big tub of popcorn for my family at the movies for $6.50, I’ll have to buy 4 small bags of popcorn at $4 apiece. I don’t see how this is helping me. In addition, have they even considered hot air popcorn is actually a healthy snack?
I’m telling you if people don’t get off their asses and vote for people who want less government we will end living like slaves.
Snake Plissken: Got a smoke?
Malloy: The United States is a non-smoking nation! No smoking, no drugs, no alcohol, no women - unless you're married - no foul language, no red meat!
Snake Plissken: [sarcastic] Land of the free.
