    Think of this …
    Think of this commercial, when Medical Lobbyists try to tell you they are trying to do what’s best for America; It’s only about lining their own pockets with greenbacks.
    ALL politicians are like puppets on a monetary string/Maybe we been caught singin’: “Red, White, Blue, And GREEN”,
    But that ain’t my American Dream….. (Switchfoot)/ Shout Me Down like Medical Lobbyists At a Town Hall Meeting; You ain’t any good for anything else……..

    video lacks a big WTF? after the cig commercial…
    6 months smoking chesterfields, having smoke cigarettes for an average of 10 years and they couldn’t find any adverse affect…oh yeah i forgot … you have a gigant cancer in your lungs that’s all, but don’t worry the 50′ doesn’t have a solution, so keep smoking …

    “Damn people dressed weird in the 00′s” Said the office worker as he checked his mental scan calendar. “ahh, one more week, and I get the new years vacation time. so long 2050!”

    i am pretty sure that was patty duke in the second one. and lets not forget, back then, they didnt think they were lying, in older reader’s digest..they even did articles where dr’s truly believed the benefits of smoking outweighed any risk..and that was way after they realized there may be risks at all!

    There you have it.. …
    There you have it…you can trust either the commie-loving government telling you cigarettes are bad OR… Chesterfield’s and their in-depth scientific report conducted by medical specialists who found that cigarettes don’t “adversely affect” you. I think a reasonable red-blooded American would trust Chesterfields. I mean, who wouldn’t want a nice, toasted raspy voice!

    Tobacco control …
    Tobacco control organizations like the Amer. Cancer Society, ASH, Tobacco Free Kids, etc. are now Perception Management firms and paid by big pharma to create “truth”. Created truth is controllable using select information involving falsehood and deception. Smoke and mirrors to get people to believe what they want the “truth” to be. Wars can be created using PM! It requires absolutely no courage to support a popular position, even if completely wrong or illegal.

    You are probably as stupid, as the rest of
    us.
    You are totally correct, but if this offends
    you, look at your own idealogy, it is filled
    with the same nonsense.

    But you don’t believe it, do you?

    You think, you are smart and these people
    are stupid.

    Make sure, you don’t put on your Hitler youth garb, because in the end, unless,
    you are totally different, you will ‘kill’ Jews
    and ‘smoke’ cigarettes.

    And think you are RIGHT!

    I thought I heard …
    I thought I heard wrong… He really said 10 to 40 a DAY? Let’s say the person is awake 16 hours a day, so it would mean the person smoking 40 a day smokes a full cigarrette every 14 minutes. Holy shit. Whoever that person was, he or she was dead by the time this ad was aired.

    BTW, for those of you that talk about how stupid people were in the fifties, all you have to do is read the comments on youtube to see that people haven’t gotten any smarter.

  22. LodiGino says:

    Has anyone …
    Has anyone mentioned that 10-40 cigarettes a day is alot? Or that they failed to mention the lungs? Or that little girl might be Patty Duke?
