Hartland, Wisconsin
Imagine for a moment that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has overstepped their authority in “deeming” anything to do with e-cigarettes.
Imagine #EnoughIsEnough:
Coordination with the FDA: Hartland, Wisconsin Holds Public Hearings
Please Keep Smoking Award
State Rep. Mary Jo Daley, (D-PA) is the recipient of this week’s “Please Keep Smoking” award. Seems the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network likes to give out “awards” to keep people smoking.
Here’s her shameless self-promotion piece:
Daley earns ‘Distinguished Advocacy Award’ from American Cancer Society
FDA: Please Keep Smoking More
The FDA likes smoking so much, they have an initiative to figure out how to keep people smoking under an “initiative” to pretend to get them to smoke “less”.
I thought the FDA’s purpose was to regulate, not initiate.
I covered “lower nicotine” and 22nd Century here in March of last year…
“The company’s cigarettes are part of an estimated $20 million FDA initiative to determine “the best method to quit smoking“
there’s more, as I predicted.
22nd Century gets FDA authorization for low tar-to-nicotine cigarette clinical trial

My pal DrMA asked them this question:
Covering up the obvious isn’t enough.
The FDA is batting 1,000 with non-answers – as if they were above the law.
With Former FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg under R.I.C.O. charges, Senator Ron Johnson being ignored last year asking the FDA repeatedly to produce documentation, and Hartland asking questions above, Judicial Watch has asked, through the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) for – well – information.
I’ll wait.

Nicotine
Via Jim McDonald
Remember, folks, “nicotine” is now tobacco.
People are usually interested in how long nicotine remains in the system because their employer wants to test for nicotine, either as a condition of employment, or more commonly to determine the cost of health insurance.
How long does nicotine stay in your system?
