I think we should make smoking cool again. Just think if you skipped one meal a day and smoked a pack of cigarettes instead how much weight Americans could lose !

They'd just wind up eating the cigarettes.

You regressive liberals
^This is why I never take what you say seriously.
You argue always against some generic group of people that you think everyone who disagrees with you fits in. You reason with stereotypes in mind and don't really listen to individuals. It shows especially when you go on a rant that has nothing to do with what the quoted person says. You add a lot of conjecture and assumptions about the person you talk to, I guess because this gives you a higround or something?

Sorry but I do not represent your "every progressive person ever" you always seem to be so angry about.

That is what makes you a "regressive liberal", bet you didn't watch that video I posted earlier on how to identify one. If you had watched it you would get the joke.

Short answer: stop arguing with emotions.

Donald Trump's catapult to the top of the ticket is completely emotionally driven. It's Custer's Motherfucking Last Stand right now if you believe the Trumpettes.

Rather than point to conservatives or liberals, Americans on general are resonating with emotional arguments precisely because cold, calculating logic has done little to improve the trend towards the American Dream being just that. A dream.

This cuts across ideologies. Across race.

We could be like the French, skinny, making fun of fat people as we switch off puffs between our cigarettes and oxygen tank.

Some British facts:
Did you know that this referendum is the 3rd ever Referendum the whole of the UK has ever had?

The first was to if we should join the EU (1975), of which we said yes.
The Second was about the alternative voting system(2011), of which we voted no.
and Now the Third (Today), of the Brexit.

The Vote should be decided by tomorrow at around 9AM GMT maybe. But it could be later.
So thats 5:00 AM? EST.
2:00 PST if you stay up that late.

I'll be around i guess i'll update and post here if anyones interested.

I'm sure it will be all over the news once the final decision is determined, rest assured Americans aren't staying up late just to see. We might be awake for other reasons tho...

Yeah thats wrong, as far as I know, none of have been passed, and there have probably only been 5 or so votes, if that. Certainly not veto'd.

Certainly not vetoed no matter what. Obama would sign that ***into law like it was...something he wanted to sign into law?

Sorry, that analogy fell apart on me and I stopped caring.

Boris Johnson sounds like a Soviet caricature out of an 80's era porno.

Also he looks more like Jeff Bridges in Dumb and Dumber than the ole Trumpers
