Doctors tell Barack Obama to quit smoking, Drinking
By Ewen MacAskill, UK Guardian
Obama’s Doctor says he needs to quit smoking
Barack Obama is still struggling to kick smoking, according to his first medical examination since becoming president.
Obama is sensitive about his cigarette habit and tetchy with reporters who raise it. But after his 90-minute medical at the Navy hospital outside Washington yesterday morning, his doctors confirmed he had not yet managed to conquer the habit and suggested he "continue smoking cessation efforts".
The doctors said the president used medication to try to ease the pangs, they described it as "nicotine replacement therapy, self-use".
Obama promised Michelle when he embarked on his campaign to become president he would quit, at the time he said he was smoking about eight a day.
He told reporters last year he had quit but still had an occasional cigarette, without specifying how many.
The doctors also recommended "moderation of alcohol intake".
Obama also needs to take it easy on the drinking

Hell if I was his doctor, I'd write him a prescription for medical marijuana, tell him to get back on the crack pipe, drink as much as humanly possible, and smoke until his hair catches on fire. None of this could possibly bring a more ill-conceived agenda, Jim

Dear Barry,
No, don’t stop smoking or drinking. After all, you are so WISE, right?
So, keep on smoking and drinking and GET WHAT YOU DESERVE!

The office of the President deserves more dignity than this.
IMPEACH OBAMA IN 2010.

"What Is Putative President Obama’s Current U.S. Citizenship Status?"
"We have seen that Obama cannot be an Article II “natural born Citizen” because when he was born, regardless of what place that may be, he was not born to a United States citizen father and mother. The "natural born Citizen" clause of our U.S. Constitution requires that both of the child’s parents be U.S. Citizens at the time of birth."

I wrote a peculiar write up on "smoking kills". The good part about it is the article is written in constructive way, and as per me anyone who wants to quit will find it fun. :) I THINK OBAMA SHOULD READ THIS ARTICLE. :D
(I provided the link, so that readers can really enjoy the article. Just having my comment stay on this site, is a positive indication) :)

March 2nd, 2010 at 7:21 pm

What I find so sicking is how the Dems always try to play the I'm better that you card. Look WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND AND THESE PEOPLE HAVE DONE A LOT OF VERY BAD THINGS TO A LOT OF GOOD PEOPLE. OUR COUNTRY DESERVES BETTER THAN A man WITH NO RESPECT FOR OUR FLAG. AND A SENATE WITH NO RESPECT FOR IT'S CITIZENS, OR A CONGRESS THAT TURNS A DEAF EAR TO AMERICANS WHEN THEY SCREAM NO!!! TO A HEALTH CARE BILL THAT WILL BANK RUPT OUR COUNTRY.
It's time for us to TAKE A STAND AND MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD, and BY GOD WE MUST SPEAK, and SPEAK, UNTIL THEY HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO LISTEN!!!!

When my wife got pregnant, I got serious about finding a way to stop smoking. I mean, it was one thing when it was just my health I was risking – I always went outside to smoke, so that my wife wouldn't get second hand smoke. But now that we have a little one on the way, it's different. I want to be around to see her grow up, get her first tooth, get married, all of those things. I don't want to miss out, so I'm going to stop smoking. Better for my health, better for hers, and better for my wife's.

And we wonder why this country is a mess. There is no respect for ANY President, no honor, no charrcter. You are all viscious slob with nothing better to do then spread hatred and discontent and make false or misleading accusations based on nothing more than idle rumors.
If the country is in trouble it is because of the distortion of truth from wingnuts on the left and the right. Those of us with principles look for solutions not for scapegoats

What do you expect from a coke head street hustler? Obama obviously has an addictive personality, and likely will not be able to give up smoking. Who knows, he may still be doing cocaine. After all, we know nothing about this guy.
