Intro: Meet the new Tom -- same as the old Tom.
That would be Tom Farley, Mayor Mike's replacement for ex-city Health Commissioner Tom Frieden, recently departed for the Obama administration.
Frieden lived to stick his nose in other people's business -- totally for their own good, of course -- and it seems that Farley is struck from the same mold.
New Yorkers who didn't see enough of Frieden's disgusting anti-smoking evangelism on TV can now expect even more revolting agit-prop in the corner bodega -- courtesy of Farley. . . .
what's in the works now is about power, not public health.

Please just stop it.
