Quick note: I don't think it's so much Democrat vs. Republican...but perhaps more of a liberal / conservative thing...regardless, the distinction I see in the OP's examples, and others like it, is one of public vs private behavior. Ban smoking...IN PUBLIC. Smoke in your own house until you can't see across the room. Ban prayer....in a PUBLIC school.
Ban a man fucking another man in the ass? Well, is it in public?
As for sex-ed - that's just a presentation of information, and I will never understand how that is a bad thing, conservative or liberal. But apparently it might change how someone acts in private, so we should ban the shit out of that.
