It is not that I agree with Hitler or the Obama anti-tobacco ideals or taxes but it is that if everything Hitler liked, thought, or did was evil a lot of stuff would be evil. Do we then look at the issues or public works that Hitler and the majority of many people alive today enjoy or benefit from and cast them down as evil just because one man supported those ideals or public works? No.

I could easily find some founding father or national hero who was anti-tobacco and use it as moral propaganda for reasons we should not smoke and then call smokers Anti-American because if X didnt smoke why are you?

Nothing against you but just that logical fallacy.
