Both of these clowns need to think carefully about one position they share. Exempting Big Tobacco companies like Dosal from contributing to the hundreds of millions the state is due from tobacco companies under the settlement is not a good long range plan. It costs us billions over the decades and these two are taking thousands from these companies in campaign donations in exchange for the exemption. This is not the leadership we need or the type that will be reelected . Remember this issue.

I'm pretty sure it was Haridopolos who sponsored legislation that prevented tobacco companies from getting out of making these settlement payments. He's also in support of the $1 cigarette tax. I don't think he's in the pocket of big tobacco.
