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

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.

95. Good, if he gets elected maybe he will increase the taxes on booze instead of cigarettes!

Taxes keep rising on cigarettes.....................not on alcohol!!!!!!

96. Why is it they dont jack up the price of booze as much as they do tobacco? Maybe if they did, there would be alot less drunk driving deaths on the roads.

97. haha.. if you join the army for the benefits and the 'checks come on time' then you are a moron. armies are for fighting not welfare. you folks who are pinning your hopes on barrack are going to be in for a BIG disappointment whether he wins or not.

98. BFD. It's a flippin cigarette. Who cares if he smokes cigarettes. Anyone who has ever smoked, knows how hard it is to quit. Science has proven how addictive nicotin is. Get your heads out of your Victorian asses and leave Barack alone.

99. WHO CARES? TMZ, who are YOU? Perezhilton.com? He's been spankin' the smokers a lot, so do you want to be just like him? Smoking kills, everyone knows it but it matters not to the public if someone has that habit. It just makes them stupid and STUPID isn't news.

102. I like a man that smokes! Enough with hiding in the bathroom to have a smoke!

103. Compared to what I imagine a lot of TMZ staffers put in their mouths, Barry's habit isn't so bad. Actually, it kind of makes him seem more likable to me. A too perfect Ken doll candidate otherwise.

104. Yeah, well there's no way he is as much a chain smoker as Laura Bush.

105. The longer this race goes on, the weaker Obama looks. Last week he compared the rigors of the campaign to the Bataan Death March, this week he threw a temper tantrum when a fan, who had been waiting for hours, wanted his picture, now he's back to smoking. I don't think he can handle stress and has shown a decided lack of character these past few weeks. If he wins the primary, the Repubs will slaughter him.
