Mr. Butts: The nightmare is over...adios, lawsuit! Hi, folks! Mr. Butts here, and boy am I relieved! Check out the smile if you don't believe me, okay? Why the happy face? Well, for five years big tobacco has looked on with envy as the administration has gotten into bed with big oil, big steel, big sugar and others! Hey, what about us, we wondered! We shouldn't have! Last month, our good friends at the justice department overruled their own lawyers....reducing a potential $130 billion industry settlement to a very affordable $14 billion! And here's the beauty part - we didn't even have to negotiate! How can we ever repay the administration for its interference?
