Smokers, Miles O'Brien just reported.......

[Little Star]

Miles O'Brien just reported that smokers are supporting Hezbollah. Yep, every time you buy smokes your money may be going to Hezbollah. Smokers are the cause of everything evil! :eyes:

[datasuspect]

1. "what you don't know about cigarettes can bring hezbollah to your door

the complete story on live at five."

[madokie]

2. boy am I glad I ain't one of them

[hippiechick]

3. Then that would include our First Lady.

Put her on the next flight to Gitmo. Terra lover!! :rofl:

[warrens]

4. Philip Morris supports terraists?

Oh, this is so cool. I bet McDonald's is in on it too. And Anheuser-Busch.

[FuzzyDicePHL]

10. Well,

they support the American Taliban, so why not other terrorists?

[Ian David]

5. So much for my plan to buy free cigarettes for Republicans! n/t

[ima_sinnic]

17. bwahaha! (coffee spew) darn! why didn't I think of that? (n/t)

[MadHound]

6. Let see, tobacco is grown in the US

Cigarettes are manufactured in the US. So how in the hell am I supporting Hezbollah?:shrug: Methinks Mr. O'Brien took his stupid pill this morning.

8. the supposed "terrists"

buy cigs where they are cheaper and then sell them in locations where cigs cost more.

the resulting profit is used to feed the worldwide terrist octopus that threatens to destroy the american way of life, kittens, ice cream, and fourth of july parades at any second.

[MadHound]

12. Damn, I guess that means that all those Americans

Going across the Canadian border to sell a few cartons of cheap US cigs really work for Hezbollah:eyes:

It continues to amaze me the level the MSM stoops to in order to whip up the sheeple into a frenzy. I wonder when this sort of behaviour starts to take over a journalist? I see them here at the University when they are in J-school, they're nice, normal, bright kids. Even after they grad, they're bright, idealistic kids who want to change the world. Then they get sucked into the MSM, and something horrible happens, and before you know it they're spewing propaganda and making excuses for any atrocity. Must be something in the air or water:shrug:

[datasuspect]

13. the media is very organized

they get their official line and promote the agenda of the masters.


state controlled media by proxy. that proxy is corporate interests.

[alfredo]

15. that has been a problem here in Ky. We have a low

tax on cigarettes. Smugglers buy them by the truckload and sell them in other states with higher taxes. If a retailer can save 25 cents a pack, that adds up.

[alcibiades_mystery]

9. Cigarette smuggling

Tax on cigarettes in North Carolina: Low
Tax on cigarettes in New York: High

Buy 1500 cartons in North Carolina, smuggle to New York, sell at $1 less than prevailing New York rate = pocket the difference without paying the tax. Supposedly, this is one of the ways Hezbollah raises cash in the US.

Have I ever paid $1 less than the prevailing rate in NYC, and noticed a NC tax stamp on the underside of the pack? Of course. ;-) Cigarette smokers imperative: Know your fucking bodegas and tobacco shops!

[aquart]

14. Enterprising.

You can always count on the American addict.

[peekaloo]

7. yeah, the Lebanese Blonde brand.

:smoke:


:sarcasm:

[Drum]

11. I roll my own.

Supporting nobody but my tobacconist and the American farmers.

[spanone]

16. What has Miles been smoking? Dumbass.

Go back to NASA reporting, Miles, you and you're giggling princess are too precious for me to wake up to.
