Looks like the only smoke the Minnesota RAT's endorse is the smokescreen they wrap around their subversion of freedom. Of course, the fumes of brimstone and bitumen are like incense to the RAT's since they are spawned in, and crawl up from, hell. But I digress.

Staying on topic...

At your March 2nd precinct caucus, you might want to put a resolution forward to the effect that any public building that does not care to restrict smoking should not be forced to do so. Citing the state's constitution from Tahiti's post #4, you should be able to pass the resolution in your precinct if you have a quarum of real Republicans present.

Put yourself on the ballot for the district convention and get elected. At the district, defend the measure and move it on to the state level. Be certain that you are elected to be a delegate for the next level and, thus, continue to shepard your resolution to the top. The state level will also give you a voice in assuring ever more conservative candidates from the bottom working their way up - the key to having an effect at higher levels.

Since you are all good FReepers, a good resume for getting elected as a delegate to the next level is to simply state that you are a staunch conservative commited to expanding liberty and the upholding of the American constitution. The credentials most grassroots types are looking for are no-nonsense hardline conservatism. This has always worked for me and, I think, it will work for you too.

As an aside, ask the next anti-smoking Obersturmbahnfuhrer if they also oppose the legalization of marijuana. Might spark a good discussion.

The ex-wife a good friend of mine was adamantly anti-cigarette-smoking. No one was permitted to smoke in the house, including my friend because she disliked it and didn't want their daughter around it. fine, I respect her rules in her house. But it would absolutely gall me when coming back into the house after stepping out for a cigarette she would be sitting in the living room smoking a joint, and their daughter was in the next room

I've got nothing against folks smoking marijuana - but that to me was the absolute height of hypocracy.
