THE HONEST TRUTH

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed. Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to BBQ at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as the Conservative movement. Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly BBQ's and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal movement.

Beer was invented in the Tigres-Euphrates region of Iraq where wheat grew wild in the fields. Does anyone see the irony? This confirms that God has a sense of humor.

And taxes grow wild in Suffolk, where our council harvests them to be spent as they see fit. That is where humor goes arie and you need the beer each night so that you don't cry to much when you write those huge tax checks to Ron Williams. If you don't comply, Ron Williams will sell your home as a public auction to improve his view of Suffolk, even if you lose it all for a few dollars and most goes to a well connected lawyer. Thansk to Ron he has found the real purpose for BEER!

What's interesting is the historic importance of purveyors of beer/malt liquor. In the hoods of Suffolk they hunt and gather better than any early man could have hoped.

If Conservatives hunted and drank beer and Liberals did house chores, what did Independents do? Get lost in the woods and wait to be rescued by one or the other or be eaten?

Great news people:A Beer Tax is being considered by the senate to help pay for Obama's Healthcare Scam. Suffolkians are no different than Joe Six-Pack anywhere.We may have to hand over nearly $2 more for a case of beer to help provide health insurance for all. And it wont stop there, wine and liquor will be taxed more as well.First it was the smokers.(I dont and its a different venue it its own right)
They are now coming after the beer and I have a few thoughts on this attack on this person and millions of others just like me and you.
First of all I was going to invest in better insulation and energy efficient technologies for that tax break. You know that green energy Obama is pushing, (joke) but now I'm saving that money to pay for the beer tax. Beer keeps you warm in the winter, cool in the summer and helps you forget how miserable these worms in Washington are trying to do to OUR America.
Beer is the reason I get up every afternoon.Beer is the cause of and solution to all your problems.By putting this new tax on beer maybe the birth rate will go down because the cost of a quart of Colt 45 will go up. Maybe then food stamps will finally cover Beer. That ought to make a few million more citizens happier. do we thank Obama now? BUT I am not the least bit worried about any 'new' taxes. I do not earn $250,000 a year and Obambi has promised my taxes won't be raised one thin dime. So there!
"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
Ben Franklin said that.Guess Obama doesn't have much respect for his elders.However Washington Franklin and Jefferson all grew tobacco. Opps thats another story.
Whats next? I'm thinking a personal gas tax. Depending on your weight, and what you consume (eat) a flatulence tax will be levied upon you at the end of the year. Yea, a new gas tax...that's the ticket.it puts us on a level playing field with the cows of the world finally and it stinks.My apologies to the cows.

As beer-alcohol and tobacco taxes keep escalating at unsustainable rates watch our for the bad old days to return. We'll soon see the rise of black markets as organized crime cannot afford to pass up such lucrative cash opportunities. Just wait and see what people will do about the gas, sugar and high fat food taxes.

During the campaign Obama had quite a reputation for bumming cigarettes from his staff. Guess he doesn't like paying taxes.

Well Mr. President why dont you become a rold model for you own kids?

Also see statement on second hand smoke, I guess it's cool now to smoke.
