Obama's Smoking Gun

To begin, the fact that Obama smokes makes him more of a human being, but I realize to some on the political left, it's the equivalent of telling an evangelical that jesus drank wine, and was maybe a little sauced up from time to time. Don't even get me started on how grand Noah's boozing could get: I hear it was quite spectacular, and rumor has it he designed and built the ark while completely sloshed. Nice work, Noah: humans tended to hear strange things, perhaps getting orders from above, when the booze ripped through the veins.

Laws across the land prohibit smoking in federal buildings, and this is a reason America has become less and less creative (as one of the criteria outlined in the 7 vices of highly creative people).

On top of it, the business of making other people's business your own (aka, Teetotalers or Do-Gooders in General, and these bastards operate on both the Political Left and Right, whether under the banner of Social-Political Conservatism [SPC] or Social-Political Liberalism [SPL]) is now faced with a contradiction: do SPCs continue smoking cigars, but rail against Obama for smoking cigarettes?; or do SPLs sort of overlook Obama's vice, but continue persecuting non-Obamas who enjoy the intoxication that comes with taking a drag?

Let the CIC smoke, no matter if he or she is political Right or Left. It demonstrates their humanity, and this is important, bringing a bit of gravity to those who put politicos on "flawless" pedestals.
