How can someone call themselves conservative and still support these bans?
Believe me, they do, by the droves.
Dumbfounded here. Good thing I read ahead before posting how the Dems are the smoke-nazis.
Also, isn't anyone curious as to what would happen if one violated a smoking ban? Or if hundreds or thousands did so at once? These "laws" are proving out the "sheeple" assertion.
--FYI--last time I was in Rochford, SD , the South Dakota smoking ban was being flagrantly violated--I won't mention the name of the bar--
It aint just the left winger/democrats pushing these smoking bans...here in Missouri, the Republicans are just as guilty of pushing them.

The tobacco companies, despite what retards (check that, Conservatives of Convenience or COC's) who post here, know where their bread is buttered.
Their contributions to Republican candidates outnumber Dim contributions by 4-1.
Forget what power hungry politicians who want to stay in power at all cost do, or what 5 FReepers who don't get it say, pay attention to the think tanks like Heritage. They are the true barometer of ideas that underly the Conservative movement.
