Smoking ban flounders in lame duck

Your so-called scientists are nothing but quacks, funded by the POLITICIANS to do a hit job against smokers, whose lies have never been challenged for that reason. And all your so-called “independent” reports have been done by the same little clique, ring-led by Jonathan Samet.

Jon Samet has been an anti-smoking activist since the Fifth World Conference on Smoking and Health in 1983. He was one of three “consulting scientific editors” and “prepared draft chapters or portions” of the 1986 Surgeon General Report, “The Health Consequences of Involuntary Smoking,” and was also involved in the 1984, 1985, 1989, 1990, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2001 and 2004 SG Reports, and was Senior Scientific Editor of the 2006 Surgeon General Report, “The Health Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke.” He was also a member of the Science Advisory Board of the so-called “EPA” Report on ETS, the key chapters of which were actually secretly written by an anti-smoking activist crony of Samet's, using illegal pass-through contracts to conceal his role. Samet was Chairman of the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) committee which produced the fraudulent Monograph on Smoking and Involuntary Smoking in 2003. In 2005, Samet and three anti-smoking activist cronies formed a majority of the voting board of the ASHRAE Position Document on ETS. In addition, he committed perjury in 1998 in the State of Minnesota lawsuit against the cigarette companies, and testified in the US Department of Justice lawsuit against them as well.

You just can't stand to see anybody contradict your lies. And you can't read, either, otherwise you wouldn't need to be spoon-fed these links.

And you don't have a single substantive response to the charge that anti-smokers deliberately use defective studies to falsely blame tobacco for diseases caused by infection; nor to the charge that your so-called “independent” reports have all been concocted by the same little politically coinnected clique, ring-led by Jonathan M. Samet.

All of your side's legislative successes are based on deliberate lies, fraud and deceit, on keeping the public ignorant and preventing discussion of these fundamental issues. That's why my comments are relevant to a discussion of your legislative agenda. And stuff the pettifogging – we don't need a lawsuit or action by law enforcement to know that that scumbag Samet lied under oath, in order to libel US, smokers – which you and your movement have been doing with impunity for six decades. So stuff the phony outrage, too.

No, you avoided my refutation of your dishonesty. You anti-smokers clearly believe that you have license to suppress public discussion of facts which are harmful to your agenda. And the reason behind your ill-gotten gains is scientific fraud funded by the federal government, shoved down the public's throat by mass media who are mere propaganda organs for the American Cancer Society et al. And it's you anti-smokers who do not have the right to force your will on US. To restrict peoples' liberties requires more than mere personal whims rationalized as the (supposed) will of the majority (which the majority proved they don't support by patronizing businesses that allow smoking). That is why your side committed scientific fraud to falsely claim dangers from secondhand smoke.

If your ilk were the majority, you could have kept your smoke-free establishments in business. But you could not, because the majority did not care about them. So, because the majority did not support your agenda, you eliminated their freedom of choice, using false claims, based on deliberate scientific fraud, that passive smoking causes lung cancer and other diseases in non-smokers as your specious pretext.
