Title: Media Cover-Up of Obama Smoking
Post by: Friendly Bear on September 20, 2008, 08:04:15 PM
Besides being the most Left-Wing flaming Liberal in the U.S. Sinate, Obama also regularly flames on a cigarette.  

He's an admitted nicotine addict.

Wonder WHY the media never shows us photos or news reports of Obama and his admitted addiction of sucking down a fag?

Isn't this just like the cover-up that the national news media performed for FDR, by NEVER showing in 12 years any photos of FDR sitting in his constant companion:

His Wheel-chair?

You're an idiot; he quit and mentioned as much several times stumping on the trail.

Bring out the black helicopters.

Oh, McCain smoked also.  You gonna make a big deal about that too?

Wow, you guys are stretching now.  You been holding your posts back for that tidbit.

Sad.

But, I'm guessing you're too pristine and pure to have EVER had one vice in your life

Oh, maybe to demean the handicapped.

[:O]

You weren't listening closely to Obama.  He said he was "trying" to quit, and that it had been hard......

In our Politically Correct world, both FDR and Obama are Handicapped.

One was crippled by Polio as an adult.

The other is an Addict:  Nicotine, Cocaine, and Gambling.

[:(!]

Difference is this: NICOTINE IS NOT ILLEGAL!

I see FB is practicing to be a talker on Fox and Friends.  Making news out of something that is no news.  So the man smoked or smokes, who cares.  I smoked 3 packs a day before quitting 18 years ago.  A Heck of a lot of people in Oklahoma smoke and you don't see them in the headlines for smoking.  Smoking is not headlines. Nor is it news.

FB, here's a couple of photos to add to your political porn collection, the first one reminds me of a drunken mug shot:

I think it's childish, but fair game if someone wants to go after Obama on cigs, especially after big libs took down big tobacco.  Libs scream "hypocrite!" when another GOP member (even ones not in power) get caught with their penis in the wrong place.  So a smoking Obama would be a hypocrite by those standards, I do believe.

I don't give two ****s, really.  Just indulging the menial-minded and thankful I've not found the need to put nicotine in my body for almost nine months now.

Keep on keepin' on!  It's been 18 months for me now.  Not easy to do but so glad I did.

A few more years and you won't even miss it. I quit cigars 20 years ago.

"After 8 years of George Bush, voting for McCain is like changing seats on the Titantic..."

Voting for Obama is like jumping directly into the sea...

He's definitely a candidate I'd feel comfortable sharing a beer and a square of nicorette with.

Fortunately, I don't miss it now.  The side-effects I experienced from Chantix were enough incentive to never touch the crap again.

Lots of mixed reviews on Chantix.  I'll call mine a success since it worked, but it was rough.

My brother just couldn't take the migraines he got from it.  He's not smoking as much now, but he's still smoking.

A co-worker of mine has been nic free for about 6 months on the Chantix; his wife tried it at the same time and couldn't use the drug.

Guess the side-effects vary for specific people.  I was lucky that Commit lozenges were enough for me.  Although I did eat them for about 4 months after I quit.  Guess I'd rather have the nicotine than the delivery system I had for it before.

Do you smoke after sex?

I dunno. I never looked.

I don't hate anyone. I'd be willing to have a beer with Obama just for the experience.  I'm sure I'd lose my butt in any political discussion.

Our Lord and Savior Jesus was NOT a smoker.

How can Obama the Redeemer have this worldly vice??

Weakness, oh Weakness, thy name is Nicotine!

Does the New Savior have feet of clay??

Stretching a bit aren't we?  Are you coming out of hibernation?

The post that started this topic is stretching.  Get some material with substance for a change.  Maybe that's why you've been so dormant on here as of late.

Gosh, I sure hope so.

I chew gum, but not any time I have to speak in public or attend a professional meeting, etc.  (So I will probably never be caught in a photo with a wad of gum in my mouth.)

Pres. Clinton smoked cigars, and nobody cared until he got a bit too creative with them... Regardless, I can't remember if I ever saw a picture of him smoking a stogey.

McCain was a two-pack a day smoker for 25 years, which he supposedly gave up in 1980...although this looks a bit more recent....

And, of course, Ahhrnold, knows how to inhale...and exhale...

you know, if I had to listen to Kerry talk for any length of time I'd probably be driven to smoking as well.

Can't say for certain from the photo if that's a butt in his hand.  Could be a half-eaten double-stuff Oreo...
