I also feel hatred when I see a quote from someone who is likely to be the premier who has stated that moderate cigarette consumption reduces the risk of traditional disease... unless the first part of that quote was, "50 years ago..." there is no excuse. Cigerettes kill people, end of story, they are bad. Look through the risk factors for diseases, half of them have smoking as a risk factor, to suggest otherwise is absolutely insane.
If someone can find me one reputable medical journal that was put out since the polio vaccine came out that shows the health benefits of moderate cigarettes I would be amazed. Until then that quote is quite damning.
