watch me agree with Hollywood liberals

"US actor and director Sean Penn lit up and led a minor revolt at the Cannes film festival against France's draconian new anti-smoking laws."

-AFP May 14, 2008

Draconian is the best word I have seen yet to describe anti-smoking laws. I probably do not agree with Sean Penn on much, but I have to agree with him on this issue.

What is that cliche? Politics makes strange bed fellows?
