I believe the quote was “allowing” on the job exercising.

A president who believes correctly that smoking causes health problems might express his disdain for that malodorous addiction without supporting legislation that forbids the populous from engaging in it. One similarly might expect Huckabee to encourage healthy eating publicly, but he can do so honestly without incurring a moral obligation to unleash the food police upon us. I recognize that foreign regimes and the other party do tend toward authoritarian demands on these issues, but stupidity in America never alone resulted in criminal punishment, and we shouldn’t start now. I really don’t know if Huckabee merely expressed his views and dispensed advice or the extent to which such draconian and authoritarian policies might follow, but this article gives no indications of the latter notwithstanding your insinuations thereof.
