Libertarian Nick Gillespie on Stossel gets into a fight with MeMe Roth, a Health Nazi who wants to control everyone’s lives so they live according to what she thinks is best for them and totally owns her ass.
Last year when he was still working at ABC, John Stossel made the case that we should pay for our own health care because insurance makes it more expensive:

New York is considering limits on salt and already has banned serving trans fat in restaurants. The ban extends to soup kitchens for the homeless, where perfectly good donated food gets thrown in the trash because it might contain trans fat.
Soda is the latest battlefield. New York Gov. David Paterson has proposed a $465 million excise tax on the syrup that sweetens soft drinks. CCF explains why taxing soda is a bad idea:
There are ideological reasons, scientific reasons, and policy reasons.
From the ideological point of view, [taxes should not] be a tool for social engineering, to change people’s behaviors.
People draw the parallel with tobacco, but there’s a huge chasm of a difference between the two. There’s an incontrovertible link between tobacco and serious diseases. Soda is one of a plethora of products that are overused by some people, but there’s nothing wrong with it per se.
There’s not a shred of evidence that shows that [a soda tax] will work. All the studies show that it will have no impact on obesity rates.
The food police point out that there is evidence that millions of Americans would live longer if they ate less salt and sugar. While that may be true, it is another problem with government’s one-size-fits-all rules: I and millions of others have low blood pressure, and no weight problem. We get no health benefit from the food police’s restrictions — just less choice and food that doesn’t taste as good.
Octomom: would you hit it?

BEFORE:
Octomom Nadya Suleman — down to 120 lbs., from a whopping 270 — dares to bare in a stunning new photo shoot, published exclusively in this week’s Star.
The mom-of-14 flaunts her new body just a year after her record-breaking delivery in a stunning set of bikini photos.
Nadya shows what exercise and good diet can do in an eight-page special in the magazine, which hits newsstands today. And she insists there was no help from any plastic surgery.
“No way, I would feel like I cheated,” she tells Star. “I wanted to prove to myself that I can do it on my own, naturally. My friends call me Rubber Band because I always snapped back so quickly after my other kids!”
Nadya, who lives in La Habra, Calif. became the first woman in the world to give birth to eight healthy children when she had a Caesarian section in January last year. She has six other children ranging in age from 7 to 3.

Unused ticket revenge
Hi,
I am selling this UNUSED 2009 Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl ticket because I would like $5.00 to buy a pack of cigarettes for woman that caused me to miss this game. I’m buying her cigarettes so she can die faster, and stop ruining my life.
Anything over $5.00 I will use to go to Sonic to buy her as much fried cheese as she could possibly stick in the black hole that is her fat mouth. I figure a nice combination of fried cheese and cigarettes should be able to keep her off my back for a little while so that I’m able to enjoy my own life for a little bit.
Any die-hard Vandal fan knows what happened in that game, and to miss it because of this woman is absolute BUL*SH*T
This ticket is in mint condition, as it never saw my wallet/pocket…and now that I have said “mint” this fat cow is wondering if we’re going for ice cream.
I am only asking for 10% of the price that I paid to NOT watch this game in person. Which makes sense because this woman has consumed, and killed 90% of what used to my manhood, and all the food in Idaho.
Paypal accepted, but not required. Free shipping! Thanks for looking, and good luck.
