John Boehner describes how Obama struggled with smoking and was 'scared to death' of Michelle
Business Insider ^ | 10/30/2017 | Alex Lockie

Former House Speaker John Boehner shed some light on former President Barack Obama's smoking habit and his relationship with his wife Michelle in a new interview.

Boehner told Politico about his encounters with Obama in a major interview detailing his 25 years at the top of the Republican party in Washington.

Boehner summarized the differences between himself and Obama with an anecdote from a 2011 meeting between the two when it came to their vices.

“I’m smoking a cigarette, and they bring me a glass of merlot. And we’re sitting there a little while, and here’s the president drinking iced tea and chomping on Nicorette," Boehner told Politico.

"What else do you need to know about the two of us?”

In February 2011, Michelle Obama, a champion of healthy living during her time as First Lady, announced that her husband had quit smoking for more than a year.

Nicorette gum is used to alleviate cravings for cigarettes, which typically stop two weeks after quitting smoking.

Despite this time discrepancy, Boehner says he never saw the president sneak a cigarette, and credits that to his fear of Michelle.

Asked whether he had ever seen Obama succumb, Boehner said: “Oh no. No no no. He’s scared to death of his wife. Scared. To. Death.”

“I’m smoking a cigarette, and they bring me a glass of merlot.

That sounds like a typical breakfast for Boehner.

I’ve thought for a long time that the 900 FBI files that went “missing” for several months didn’t just have dirt on Clinton’s enemies. I believe the files must also contain dirt on the people who work for Clinton, this is how they maintain leverage and control over their lackeys.

“Just as Clinton was scared to death of Hillary. This dims can’t seem to have normal relationships.”

Who isnt scared to death of what these two hags would do if they could. By the time women get to their age and are still democrats you ,know its not going to end well.

One sweep of those hips could take a linebacker off his feet.

Yes, that sounds about right. But surely those stolen files (which would have sent a Republican to the slammer) are somewhat aged by now?

Yes the files are 25 years old but there are still a lot of Clintonistas from the White House years running around.

I’m sure there are many Clintonistas who stick with with the Clintons because they want to. I also think there must be some who want to get away from these dreadful abusive people, but they feel trapped.

One thing that comes out in the book “Shattered” is that the campaign was terrifed of the verbally abusive angry Kankles. They were also afraid of the Bent One. Everyone constantly tiptoed around the despicable abusive Clintons.

Yes, Michele and her long time friend Valerie Jarret - they wore the pants in the Obama family. All Barack had to do was read the teleprompter, remember his speeches and follow the line of march of the Cabinet picks Valerie lined up for him. Obama has always been a cypher for a mass Leftist movement that did everything “for him”.

Yes, you’re right. Who wrote Shattered? I may have to buy it.

Wow...I have even less respect for obama and that is an unfathomable concept.

I cannot imagine spending much time with a haradrim who makes you so miserable you live in fear of her. As soon as the behavior became identifiable and irreversible I would expect one to terminate the relationship forever if possible.

There are far too many hot Latinas on the planet to long endure someone who is perpetually miserable.

My sympathy does go out to those who cannot for unsaid reasons escape such a situation. Prayers your way, bruhs...

Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes wrote “Shattered.” Both authors are Rat reporters who supported Kankles.

They started out with the intent of documenting the successful campaign of the first woman POTUS.

“Oops....”
