		<description><![CDATA[Intuit (the creators of Quickbooks) recently created this infographic to show exactly how much money is being made from the sales of tobacco in each state. Do you think it&#8217;s a coincidence that the states making the most money are the ones most aggressively pursuing anti electronic cigarette legislation? I sure don&#8217;t! As electronic cigarettes [...]]]></description>

Let me get this straight, NOT ONE single legislator voted against this? Some of them didn&#8217;t even know what an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just like California senate bill 400,  it looks like the anti-electric smoking lobby has been stopped for now in Virginia, not because a bill was being passed to ban them, but because over zealous anti-smoking lunatics tried to argue that electric cigarettes actually violated the non-smoking ban. According to the Washington Post,  Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in July, Oregon became the first state to sort of  &#8220;ban&#8221; the sale of electronic cigarettes, after this report was released. Within days of that report, the state government here in Oregon acted quickly and heroically to protect us,  pulling a couple of products off the shelf. The local TV and radio news was [...]]]></description>

In a message regarding the veto to members of the California State Senate he sent the following: To the Members of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oregon has not banned the sale of electronic cigarettes, a.k.a smokeless cigarettes! At least, that&#8217;s my position, and I&#8217;m making efforts to clarify that officially. Based on news stories that appeared on our local television news, and subsequent reprints of an AP article and other news sources all over the web, people are mis-reporting the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Listen for yourself to the audio file of the FDA&#8217;s press conference right here. We found this file while poking around on the FDA site, and in the beginning, they say it&#8217;s coming down in a few days&#8230; huh? Isn&#8217;t it a matter of public record? Well it is now&#8230; If you&#8217;ve been reading any [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Theres some really disturbing news from the US government this week, that the FDA is actually going to be regulating nicotine as a drug. The bill has passed the House, passed the Senate, and currently sits in Obama&#8217;s inbox in the Oval Office. Theoretically, this could severely impact your ability to purchase one of these [...]]]></description>
