Dic...They cheated?<br /><br /><br />They Lied??<br /><br /><br />They MISLED???<br /><br /><br />Dick, how can you possibly fault them for simply continuing to do what they *always* do. <br /><br /><br />They're Antismokers. Look at their history. Easier to find a zebra shedding its stripes than to find one of them with an ounce of integrity. They'll tell you one thing on a Monday and then the opposite on a Friday if it pleases them: they have no standards, only a goal: and they'll try to get to it no matter what the costs along the way.<br /><br /><br />- MJMMichael McFaddenhttp://profiles.google.com/cantilopernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-65307851255502308422012-11-12T02:33:30.140+00:002012-11-12T02:33:30.140+00:00Eric....

In addition more than 20,000 people and organisations expressed a view on the proposal through pre-printed postcards, letters, and petitions."<br /><br /><br /><br />No clue how many were for it and against it; would expect that there were a few pre-printed submissions came both from the ASH side and the retailers side.Eric Cramptonhttp://offsettingbehaviour.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
