Senator Bunning Opposes FDA Tobacco Regulation Bill

[jeangrey65]

Gee, wonder what tabacco Lobiest is in HIS pocket? What do you expect , he voted against the Franken Amendment. that 29 other Pro-Rape Republicans voted no on. They are more interested in the private contractors "rights", then Ms. Jones "rights" after being gangraped. He puts his pocketbook ahead of the American people. He needs to be removed. Check my front video and see what he voted against. Hope your granddaughters never worked for Halliburton KBR , then again, maybe they should!

[DojoNDude]

Would that be the same Senator Bunning that voted NO on justice for rape victims? One of the thirty republican Seantors that sold their soul to Halliburton by voting against the Franken amendment? Since when is brutal gang-rape a conservative value? You people should WAKE UP!

[bizzle246]

they need to get rid of that bill. its just the government being control freaks.

[ballajd]

Sen. Bunning is one of the last of dying breed "a true conservative". It's becoming increasing hard to be for less government. You're almost looked upon as second class citizen.

[FranzHess]

Wow, another Republican supporter of big tobacco.

What a shock.

Yeah, let's NOT protect kids.

Let the companies do whatever they want.

Let them hand out free cigs at elementary schools.

If the gov tells them NO, then it's "government intervention".

Let's take away the drinking age while were at it. That way, we can even more alcoholics in the USA in 10 years, since we seem to be short on those.

[sfgiantsballin]

How about alcohol? Fast food? Let's legalize prostitution and then regulate it and tax it, because you can get herpes or chlamydia. Sounds like you'll let the GOVERNMENT do whatever they want just because they merely scratched the surface of a complex issue.

[FranzHess]

Uh, we already regulate those :)

You really have a problem with cig companies being required to list their ingredients, like everyone else?

You really have a problem with eliminating advertising specifically targeting children?

What do you suppose the % is of smokers who started as children?

What do you suppose the % is of smokers who thought they would not become addicted to cigarettes when they started?

Y should cig companies get a free pass to put whatever they want into their product?

[sfgiantsballin]

The tobacco companies should be held more responsible, you are right. I'm not saying PM is run by an altar boy (lol). The problem is that the government is just as irresponsible, so we can't trust anybody but our own discernment and our children's. The bottom line is that it's a waste of money from the feds for an unpredictable result.

[RandPaulsupporter]

I think it's save to say: the FDA has enough to do without this.

[caseypena420]

Rand doesn't want to run against Bunning. He is just running in case Bunning decides not to.

Bunning is one of the few good senators.

[soicuw]

god, I love Rand Paul, but its a shame he is running against the only person in the Senate I like
