nearly equal numbers of Republican and DFL lawmakers joined together to pass the statewide smoking ban by comfortable margins in both the Senate and the House.Gov. Tim Pawlenty is a Republican...Social Conservatives applaud this and we like the results despite the wailing and gnashing of teeth here.

Appalud the erosion of liberty, by favoring one class over another? SHS smoke is a myth, the studies were rigged, and the numbers fudged. Running rough-shod over one group of people to promote a special consideration for another group will come back to bite you. Smokers are people too, and we’re getting tired of being treated this way.
You’re no conservative!

Social Conservatives applaud this. . .Actually, it's the left that applauds smoking bans, not social conservatives.

I am a social conservative. I applaud nothing that puts the government in the place of mans own responsibility. Government has no role in this issue, or in many other issues. To applaud an issue like this is to be a nanny state liberal!

Another example of why we need part time legislatures that are only in session 6 weeks a year. I refer to state and federal levels.
