Health Nazis Target Santa Claus.

Health Nazis go after Secondhand Drool.

I told you; I told you! But did you listen? Noooooo! They're not even DONE with smoking yet, and they're already working on the next project:

[Arkansas State] Rep. Pam Adcock said she will propose next week a ban on
chewing tobacco from that chamber's floors or committee rooms. Adcock
contemplated seeking the ban during a committee meeting earlier this year and
said she would push for a state law in the 2009 session banning chewing tobacco
throughout the Capitol.

What's next? Secondhand popcorn smell? (Oh, wait; they're already on that one.)

Secondhand cola fizz? Secondhand tea aroma? Secondhand coffee stains?

I hate the Health Nazis.

Homer Simpsons of the World, Unite!

They'll take my doughnuts when they pry them from my cold, dead, sticky hands!

Time to ruin the doughnuts.

Dunkin' Donuts goes trans-fat-free.

No word on whether or not they'll change the chain's name to Dunkin' Cardboard.

The War On Pleasure continues.

Great piece from the ARI on the Flavor Police.

I hope Sheriff Joe Arpaio doesn't make me wear a pink jumpsuit . . .

. . . when they quarantine me like a criminal in his jail. Because being fat is now contagious.

Pink is SO not my color. Makes us fat people look like a giant wad of bubble gum.

I knew they'd manufacture a justification for calling it an "epidemic" sooner or later.

Can I get a double-order of prison slop, cafeteria lady? Your hairnet looks fabulous.

Nixa smoking ban demonstrably a jobkiller.

From KY3:

During the debate over the smoking ban, the owner of the Longhorn Grill said the policy would cause his business to close and, last week, it did.

How long have I been telling you . . .

. . . that if the Health Nazis are successful in their crusade against smokers, the government will lose revenue?

Because of quitters like Henkel, Minnesota's tobacco tax revenue is expected to go into a gradual slide later this year -- a drop that may grow even steeper with the expected passage of a statewide smoking ban.
