President Obama Signs Kennedy/Waxman Tobacco Bill into LAW

The President implies that he quit cigarettes a long time ago.  This is from last year.

President Obama today signed the Kennedy/Waxman so-called Family Smoking Prevention and tobacco Control Act into law.  The new tobacco law neither helps family smoking prevention or controls tobacco.  This law is an embarrassment of favors to Philip Morris USA, other tobacco special interests groups, and an attempt to pander to the anti-tobacco zealots.  It’s very flawed; it didn’t have to be; and we will pay the price.

The following is from the Official White House Website.  Normally, we would just post a link to the article but since the Government doesn’t advertise on their sites and our tax dollars pay for the US Government Websites, We’re bringing the White House to you…..

So here is the White House PR Spin on Kennedy/Waxman.  Don’t worry, the truth is coming in other articles.

Kennedy/Waxman Tobacco Bill Signed by Obama.  Are the children safer yet?
