People need to understand the reason he vetoed that bill...it had nothing to do with backing up anyone. Quote:

While I support restricting access of electronic cigarettes to children under the age of 18, I cannot sign a measure that also declares them a federally regulated drug when the matter is currently being decided through pending litigation.

 

[Joe Camel]

It's more that he recognizes that the FDA cant make something illegal.

It's more that he recognizes that the FDA cant make something illegal.

He vetoed the bill on account of the pending litigation in front of Judge Leon. It was never a question about them being legal or illegal. The FDA wants to regulate them as a drug delivery device. Fortunatelly Judge Leon so far has disagreed with the FDA.

 

[Joe Camel]

He will never sign a bill to ban them. If federal law decides to ban them there's nothing he can do, but he would never accept a pay off from big tobacco nor want to ban them.

 

[Joe Camel]

"If adults want to purchase and consume these products with an understanding of the associated health risks, they should be able to do so unless and until federal law changes the legal status of these tobacco products."

 

[~Gazoo~]

He will never sign a bill to ban them. If federal law decides to ban them there's nothing he can do, but he would never accept a pay off from big tobacco nor want to ban them.

Right...I agree..lol. And I applaud him for doing the right thing.

 

[Joe Camel]

In his movie 'Pumping Iron' he said, "I'd eat four pounds of dog sh** if it would make me gain one pound of muscle". That's dedication.

poor New Jersey

poor New Jersey

Yea, I keep hearing how they needed tax money so they taxed the wealthy and the wealthy moved, so now when the revenue should have been up, it's down. Not truly related, but yea, poor NJ.

 

[Joe Camel]

I bet Senator Bob Gordon has been given campaign funds by big tobacco or some form of pay off.

At least there was a rebuttal included in the story.

Whenever government consciously decides to do something, or not do something, you may be assured of one thing: somebody's lips are around somebody else's penis. The only challenge is to decipher whose lips are around whose penis.

And no matter how the above arrangement works out, its the citizens and taxpayers who ultimately get screwed.
