the best is the obesity tax he wants to impose on new yorkers

what an idiot.

Blind people are watching movies including Me, welcome to 2009 :)))

i don't understand how governners and politicians are getting dumber day by day, i hate those fags more and more, fucking morons.

Nobody has right to touch the internet, all Americans pissed off and protest those fuckers.

:1orglaugh:thumbsup

um what a strange idea is that....

NY launched 88 new taxes yesterday including 18% on soft drinks.

So many taxes, it's crazy, what will be next one about? :disgust
