I loved this part

"Had Obama taken along a couple of e-cigs with him, he wouldn’t have felt the need to chomp on nicotine gum, thus he wouldn’t have offended his Chinese hosts in the process.

“Had he been vaping, he could have satisfied his nicotine craving … without offending,” he said. “The NCPPR is sending a variety or e-cigarettes to the president, when he returns from China.”

The organization has been pushing for the Food and Drug Administration to back off regulations of e-cigarettes, saying an over-regulated approach will actually prevent tobacco smokers from quitting and using the vapor product as a substitute."

Perhaps (however I doubt it) as an 'ex smoker' he may take some notice and help direct a policy shift with the FDA...

Freakin' nicorette

I don't want to over quote, but...

"Gregory Conley, research fellow at the Heartland Institute applauded both President Obama and our gift to him, noting,

President Obama is a great example of harm reduction in action. Once a daily smoker, he is now living a smoke-free life thanks to long-term nicotine use. We are hopeful that the National Center’s care package will cause President Obama and his staff to carefully examine the negative impact that the FDA’s proposed regulation of e-cigarettes would have on public health.


We are going to send a select variety of products including flavors, open systems, closed systems, cigalikes, products from independent companies, from “Big Tobacco”, made in the USA, and even products from… well, China. "

I think that was supposed to read nicorette...

Thanks Pen!

I bet he would include a few extra ZotZ in that order

 

[Soignee]

I think he'd be more PO'd about the secret service snoopin' around than anythig

 

[ReigntheGamer]

OT: So now I have to be President to get a crushed Zotz. ....

It is very interesting though.
