Since you're now just doing silly name-calling, I take it you've conceded the WHO findings (which you blatantly misrepresented) and agree that passive smoking causes lung cancer.

Sir, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and take your word for it that you are really a conservative and a Republican, although I'm starting to have my doubts. That last post was to illustrate how much you sound like Al Gore and BJ Clinton, not to call you names. I'll post the link where I got those quotes. It's from the conservative ACSH, who did the first and most thorough study on the differences between the Right and the Left regarding tobacco control policies.

You are on the wrong side of this issue if you are a conservative. That doesn't make you a bad person. If there is room in the Republican Party for pro choice folks like Guliani, Whitman and Schwarzenegger, there's certainly room for your disdain for Private Property rights and personal responsibility (hallmarks for a true conservative).

In the meantime, since you refuse to believe one study indicating that there IS NO LINK BETWEEN PASSIVE SMOKING AND DISEASE, I'll give you a link to every study that has ever been done. Some people need to be beaten over the head with a crowbar before they get it. (I mean that figuratively not literally, no need to contact the authorities or hire a bodyguard or buy a 9 mm :)

I'll ask you again, please give me a link to the websites where you got your information from. I appreciate the last link, I'm not done reading it. Give me a link for the Enstrom study and the EPA ruling by Osteen in 98.

Thanks.
