Virginia is beautiful country , home of many of the great founding fathers (one wonders what happened?) . Also made the home of largest tobacco centers in the world in Ricmond , wonderful what we do with that beautiful land but whatever works & pays the bills right Solon ? But ranks one of the lowest states with spending on public arts in the US , not surprised here , the country may be beautiful but its people have a troubled past . (They aren't what you'd call a very creative forward thinking group per/se )

Who can forget the sincere , honest , heartfelt testimony of the seven dwarf heads of the Tobacco Industry
lying to the Congress in one of the worlds great exposed follies ?

Lying , distortions , misrepresentation all part of the tactics , which is why cretins like " longshort" are just two-bit clones that have mastered the same approaches , which is just an integral part of the indigenous culture of regression in Virginia . (They recieve more gov't procurement money than any other state except maybe Calif, surprise)

This was an all time classic for the world to see , starts out with the head of Phillip Morris CEO largest in the
world who roll 3trillion ciggies a year based in Richmond VA

"No Sir , nicotine & tobacco are not addictive !"

Oh , in that rank squirrley testimony before Congress of the Virginia based tobacco heads ,note they qualify sidestepping the "LIE" with the precursor phrase "I Believe" .

Its all a faith based exercise apparently , does this ring a bell & are we learning yet ? <hehe>

(And the Congress just waffled of course , welcome to democracy but in the end money rules)
