President Obama May Have Finally Quit Smoking

According to White House press secretary Robert Gibbs, President Barack Obama may have finally kicked his thirty-year smoking habit. Gibbs tells the Washington Post that he “has not seen or witnessed evidence of any smoking in probably nine months.
” He states that the President is fit and healthy in almost every way, including exercising six days a week and eating right. Obama’s doctors last year considered him to be in excellent health despite an elevated cholesterol level they attributed to a penchant for sweets. Despite being under considerable stress, Gibbs believes that Obama has conquered his habit due to stubbornness, hard work, chewing gum and having a support system, as his wife encourages him to abstain and his golfing buddy has also quit.
