Obama to Cigs: I Wish I Knew How to Quit You

Posted Apr 3rd 2008 4:25PM by TMZ Staff

There may be something more dangerous to Barack Obama than pastor Rev. Wright -- his nasty smoking habit!

While Barack allegedly quit smoking back in February 2007, ABC News Correspondent Jake Tapper says he ran into the Illinois senator in August when he "reeked of cigarettes." Obama did inhale! Obama even admitted he "fell off the wagon" on last night's "Hardball." Maybe LiLo can lend Barack some of her Ariva.

If BO wants to stay off the cancer sticks, he should just take his own advice and say: Yes We Can!

A rep for Obama would not comment.

27. I find the fact that he smokes more appealling as it shows his human, vulnerable side. Light em up along with the other 28 million adults who enjoy a good smoke now and then! Way to go Barrack. Enjoy that Camel!

28. It would NOT take years!!! Our military can mobilize on a very short notice. That years it would take is false. If all were to be pulled out immediatly it can be done. The only thing OPEC has to say is OIL EMBARGO and we will be out in a matter of less than a month. Do not say it can not be done because if the MOTIVATION was there it would be done.

30. For one thing WEBBY i know it will take years to get us out of Iraq ok. I didnt say get out us out tomorrow, did I? i wanna know when the process is going to start, ok. Is that clear enough for you to understand? You must dont have family fighting over there, because my husband is and i'm going there in a couple of months and i just had a baby in january. So, you go to hell right along with Bush!
