In order to get smo\u00adking bans pas\u00adsed, it was neces\u00adsa\u00adry to crea\u00adte an atmo\u00adsphe\u00adre of hat\u00adred toward the \u201cene\u00admy,\u201d to work peo\u00adp\u00adle into a fren\u00adzy over a thre\u00adat to their health, whe\u00adther the thre\u00adat was real or not. What mat\u00adte\u00adred was not truth or sci\u00adence but whe\u00adther the desi\u00adred result\u200a\u2014\u200asmo\u00adking bans\u200a\u2014\u200acould be achie\u00adved. So truth and sci\u00adence were quick\u00adly sacri\u00adfi\u00adced to the-end-justi\u00adfi\u00ades-the-means poli\u00adcy of anti-smo\u00adking orga\u00adnizati\u00adons. Micha\u00adel Seigel, MD<\/span>, is both a medi\u00adcal doc\u00adtor and public health offi\u00adci\u00adal. He has 21 years expe\u00adri\u00adence in tob\u00adac\u00adco poli\u00adcy rese\u00adarch and curr\u00adent\u00adly tea\u00adches at the Bos\u00adton Uni\u00adver\u00adsi\u00adty School of Public Health. Though ada\u00admant\u00adly oppo\u00adsed to smo\u00adking, he says: \u201cThe anti-smo\u00adking move\u00adment is dri\u00adven by an agen\u00adda\u200a\u2014\u200aan agen\u00adda that will not allow sci\u00adence, sound poli\u00adcy ana\u00adly\u00adsis, the law, or ethics to get in its way.\u201d<\/font><\/p>\n

Dr. Seigel has cited over a hundred anti-smo\u00adking groups\u200a\u2014\u200ainclu\u00adding the Ame\u00adri\u00adcan Can\u00adcer Socie\u00adty, the Ame\u00adri\u00adcan Lung Asso\u00adcia\u00adti\u00adon and the Ame\u00adri\u00adcan Heart Asso\u00adcia\u00adti\u00adon\u200a\u2014\u200afor mis\u00adlea\u00adding the public with falla\u00adcious sci\u00aden\u00adti\u00adfic claims. His web\u00adsite, www.tobaccoanalysis.blogspot.com, details an asto\u00adnis\u00adhing array sci\u00aden\u00adti\u00adfic mis\u00adre\u00adpre\u00adsen\u00adta\u00adti\u00adons, out\u00adright lies and hypo\u00adcri\u00adsy by anti-smo\u00adking groups. The\u00adse tac\u00adtics have pro\u00adven effec\u00adti\u00adve, even as they have beco\u00adme ever more shrill and absurd. ..<\/p>\n

That such monu\u00admen\u00adtal lies have been instru\u00admen\u00adtal in the pas\u00adsa\u00adge of smo\u00adking bans is a mea\u00adsu\u00adre of the gul\u00adli\u00adbi\u00adli\u00adty and sci\u00aden\u00adti\u00adfic illi\u00adter\u00ada\u00adcy of the gene\u00adral public and elec\u00adted offi\u00adci\u00adals. Of cour\u00adse, it is also a demon\u00adstra\u00adti\u00adon of the disho\u00adne\u00adsty of the smo\u00adking ban acti\u00advists and the absence of genui\u00adne evi\u00addence for their cause.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
