Proposed wine tax

[Thomas]

Seems you didn't miss anything; you hit the hypocrisy nail right on the head.

Like most politicians, Thurmond has no idea what he is talking about. He is trying now to do to alcohol what his compatriots in congress and the White House wish to do to his beloved tobacco industry. It is tit for tat. The man wouldn't know a reasonable argument if it hit him in his phony hair or wooden teeth.

And he likely drinks a lot of beer, which is why he won't go after the stuff. Of course, that would be hypocrisy too, if he truly believes beer is for the working man.
