take a look at ingredients in the best known commercial dog and cat food sometime. That stuff should be illegal to sell and banned!
And I certainly agree with the cell phone kooks while driving!

What do I think should be banned?
Life time ins coverage for elected officials. Lifetime pay checks for congress, President & Vice Pres.
Lifetime security for elected officials. Legislation that lessens the liberties of the American people or that can be construed in any way as violating the constitution. If it even MIGHT conflict with the Constitution ban it, Illegal Imigration, free health care for illegal immigrants, Plea bargaining, Early release for violent criminals, thoughts of banning capital punishment, prosecution of civilians for hurting or killing people commiting a crime. Theres more but this is a good start I think.

Not much. I think people should take some responsibility for themselves and not rely on the nanny-state to give them a false sense of security.

Take responsibility for what and when your kids watch. It's not up to anyone but you to censor their viewing. That's what the OFF switch is for.

Cuppa soups. I looked at some at the store today, just out of curiosity. Those light one-serving dry soup mixes, where you add water to the package and zap. The list of ingredients was 17 lines long. The sodium content was 1,400 mg, which any cardiac specialist will tell you is pretty close to a toxic dose. And the containers are 90% empty, which means they waste huge amount of store shelf space, and truck space over the road, and warehouse floor space.

The governamnt study just released shows talking hands free is just as bad has non-hands free. But rememebr that would mean any communictions device like a CXB or other radio is just as dangerous.Heck playing a radio or CD player is dangerous.
