(Video) Huckabee Calls for National Smoking Ban in Public Places
Stop The ACLU ^ | 30 Aug 07 | Jay777

Posted on 08/30/2007 4:33:29 PM PDT by Jay777

See the video!

This is a definite strike against this candidate for me. This is one position Huckabee should definitely reconsider.

I wonder if people were “too afraid” to call that number and express their opinion fearing they would get in trouble.

The fact there are FReepers who do not understand this will not end with smoking totally baffles me.

Correction, there is only one diehard FReeper here who won't explain the source of his rage. Wheeenie. Everybody else gets it.

Wheee, Dr. Feel is here to help you. Please share the trauma and memories that have gotten you to this point. It might help others. What beloved family member died a horrible ugly death because of the lying Big Tobacco companies? Dad, mom, sister, brother, best friend? Try to communicate on a personal level in a dialogue with your fellow conservatives. Try it. That is our first excercise here. Tell them why you feel the way you do.

Does this mean the ATF can roust you off to the slammer for smoking “in public”?

Normally they prefer just rake your house with gunfire and then burn it to the ground with you in it.

Cordially,

Sorry, Dr. Feel ————

There are far more FReepers than just the one.

That we haven’t seen any of them other than the one on the numerous threads about this speaks volumes.

If the Ohio set up is anything like the one in Delaware, and I expect that it is, they don’t answer calls after “business” hours, it’s just an answering machine.

Yes, the same in Ohio.

Let me rephrase that. There are plenty (but they are smart enough to not walk into a buzzsaw), but Wheee Wheee on the Sheeple is the only one who will stand there and take my best punch and keep getting off the canvas for more punishment.

I give him credit for that. He is extremely motivated for a reason that he won’t disclose. I wish he would so we can communicate with him on a human level.

I guess he missed the part of the Republican Caucus Committee where they discussed limited government.

The vets can’t even smoke in their own VFW halls.

That's just WRONG.

Crawl back under your rock, WTP. You’re in the minority here.

That is great! The first time I saw him in the debate I thought ‘Clinton’. Now I know my instincts were right.

Some people just don't care about anyone's rights but their own. When the nanny-staters come after their rights, they'll suddenly have a problem with it.

Huckabee is a nanny-state busybody huckster. Had enough of prohibitions?

Maybe someone should send him a shirt from http://www.cafepress.com/extinguishbans

He can show off his dieting and exercise!
