The FDA's Center for Tobacco Products simply does not have the capacity to review 22,000 new product applications. After all, it has taken more than 4 years for the agency to even begin to process the more than 3,500 substantial equivalence applications submitted by tobacco companies, and as of this date, there are still thousands of those applications pending. It is easy to see that the proposed deeming regulations would create a bureaucratic nightmare.

In fact, there is no evidence for any of the three parts ofSenator Blumenthal’s statement. There is no scientific evidence thate-cigarettes addict children to nicotine. There is no evidence thate-cigarettes lure children into a lifetime of smoking addiction. And there isno evidence that e-cigarettes cost our society billions of dollars.

The rest of the story is that these Congressmen are insincere and disingenuous. They are also hypocrites. And they are trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the public. This is clearly motivated by a desire for political gain, rather than a sincere interest in protecting the health of the nation's youth.

That sounds like something the tobacco industry would say if asked to comment about electronic cigarettes. And to its credit, even the tobacco industry has not made any such statement.

"The paper, "Short-term effects of electronic and tobacco cigarettes on exhaled nitric oxide," by Sara Marini, et al, just published in Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology (Volume 278, Issue 1, 1 July 2014, Pages 9–15), reports important data showing that nicotine e-cigarettes, non-nicotine e-cigarettes, and conventional cigarettes all have similar effects of depression of exhaled nitric oxide."
