This pic of the bozo with five butts in his mouth says it all.

The bozo and his minions continue to peddle their bullshit lies.

I hope HE CONTINUES TO SMOKE..he DESERVES the benefits associated with this addiction, and the sooner he benefits, the sooner We The People benefit.

Hey, bozo, there’s space for two more butts up your nose.

Quit smoking *tobacco*, maybe.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I drink less, because I’m trying to lose weight, but it makes me sad.

Has anyone ever known a smoker in their entire lives who, “almost completely quit”? Not me. The question is, who is buying him his cigs, and where is he smoking them? Actually, I’ll hold on that question until we get some answers from him on his communist beliefs.

A friend of mine is an avid Redskins fan. One year they were in the Super Bowl and he had tickets. On the day of the game instead of being there he was in bed with bronchitis - his 30 a day had caught up with him.

He never smoked another cigarette after that and - according to him - never a day passes that he does not want one.

"All but quitting," is probably even easier. I all depends upon what all means.

President Obama has all but quit smoking . . .

And I've all but quit having sex. At least, outside of my bedroom.

Did he claim he’s no longer smoking . . . or just that he’s no longer smoking tobacco?

Nah.

He just no longer inhales.

"Believe me."

"“All but” won’t cut you any slack with life insurance underwriters."

To show how much has changed in the last 15 years or so, I had a life insurance agent at my house way back when and I debated all day before he got there how I was going to answer the smoking question (I still smoked at the time).

I finally opted for total honesty with no caveats and I said yes. His pen stops in mid air by the "No" box and without looking up he asks me if I'm thinking about quiting. Not being a total fool, I said yes, and he ticked the "No" box and went on to the next question!!! HAHAHA

And true to my word I did think about it, and I quit cold turkey a few days later. It wasn't easy, but not one cigarette in about 15 years. I know that was the exception and not the rule though. For both him to check off that I didn't smoke and for me to actually quit.

according to willie nelson the safest place to smoke weed is on the roof of the white house, so maybe oblabo sneaks up to the roof for a smoke.

according to him - never a day passes that he does not want one.

Wow. That sounds very difficult. I'm glad I never took up that habit.

One of my favorite jokes...

Do you smoke after sex?

Yes, sometimes.

Well, in that case, you should try doing it a little slower.

“All but quit” means he has almost quit. (whatever ‘almost’ means in this case.)
