We will hear about the scourge of tobacco and the resultant premature deaths. We will hear about how this phalanx of government elates has suddenly grown a conscience after decades of subsidizing the product which, we are now told, "kills millions of Americans each year".
Time for a quick reality check. Despite the hysteria from the political class and the media, smoking doesn't kill.
You might think this was written in the 50's. Or maybe even, giving old Mike the benefit of the doubt, the early 80's or something.
Nope. 2000.

Is Pence a smoker?

Nope, but he took $100,000 in 'campaign contributions' from the tobacco lobby shortly before.

And still methinks, this particular candidate is meant to be a bow before the republican establishment. Which in itself is a scary prospect.

What choice did he have? After Corker and whacko Joni Ernst told him to fuck himself he was left with:
1 - Crazy Newt Gingrich
2- Bridge Master Christie
3- Boring Mike Pence.
Given Trump's penchant for shameless self-promotion the choice was obvious.
Neither is a match for Elizabeth Warren who ripped both of them new assholes.

Of course he hates women. It's just couched in applying religious freedom.
