And I and those I care for have the right not to inhale poison in my workplace, whatever smoke you blow,

I'm backing Huck, in part because Duncan Hunter says he's OK. I did some of my own research before Hunter endorsed him and thought Huck was better on some of the important issues.

It appears Huck initially resisted the anti-smoking NAZIS and then gave in after several years.

You may not think this is a big issue, but it is on many levels. Calling second hand tobacco smoke poison is simply wrong. You may not like the smell and it may irritate your eyes and nose but there are many studies that show no long term adverse health effects. The anti-smoking zealots are simply lying. The brainwashing started 50 years ago in the US.

The bigger issue is private property rights and how the anti-smoking NAZIS are able to convince local and state governments to trample over those rights. If your employer allows smoking in the workplace and you don't like it, find another job.

On this one, you and Huck are being duped.

It doesn't matter what Huckabee did or said. Having to inhale clouds of cigarette smoke every day is harmful. No question. And yes, it is government's role to see to it that people do not abuse each other.
