A simple CT scan of Obama's brain reveals a very sick individual

Senator Barack Obama, 46, was in “excellent health” at the time of his last examination more than a year ago and has no known medical problems that would affect his ability to serve as president, according to a letter by his physician released on Thursday.
The undated letter was released less than a week after Senator John McCain of Arizona, the presumptive Republican nominee, released his medical records.
blah, blah...
The peskiest medical problem seems to be his multiple efforts to quit cigarette smoking, which he began at least two decades ago.
Mr. Obama “has quit this practice on several occasions and is currently using Nicorette gum with success,” wrote Dr. Scheiner, a general internist who practices at the University of Chicago Hospitals and the Rush University Medical Center.
He did not provide a standard measure of smoking-pack years, or the number of packs smoked a day by the number of years a person has smoked. Nor did the doctor define success.
Thomas J. Glynn, director of cancer science and trends at the American Cancer Society in Washington, said in an interview that without more specific information about how much Mr. Obama smoked, it is impossible to cite his risks for developing lung or other tobacco-related cancers. Smoking can also lead to heart disease.
Dr. Scheiner did not say when Mr. Obama started using Nicorette, how much he was using or for how long he has used it. Reporters have observed him chewing it very often.

Who is in better health? Liberals will tell you that a whiff of smoke kills instantly. A 71 YO former POW who was beaten within an inch of his life has a better chance of premature death than a smoker.
If you smoke cigarettes you will die at the age of 24.
Unless the stinky smelly smoker is a messiah for the progressive liberal cause. In which case, all bogus studies are suspended temporarily for the greater good.
Personally, I’ve seen a LOT of evidence that Obama is one sick puppy...
We are talking physical health here, not mental. :-)
What about Hillary? Mental health review please.
The only obstacles I can see to Obama “serving” America are a second rate brain and reflexive Marxism. Bob
And she’s a pinko lefty commiesymp feminazi, too.
I’ve had the same idiotic conversations here in Hollywood. Same ole mantra “he’s old”.
I would prefer a 71 year old sane POW instead of a 40 year old bigot, racist, liberal who’s in need of a lobotomy.
The NYT as usual, are leading the charge for more Baraky stories.
Gee, Doc, doesn't he seem to have a wee problem with his memory?
And a pathological liar.

Why? Obama forgot to tell his doc about the 87 lines of coke he snorted and the hefty bag full of weed he smoked? Can’t be.
I can’t explain Hillary.
Actually, yes I can.
Women are much smarter than men when it comes to thinking 5 moves ahead. I never understood why all great chess players were male.
She put up with all this nonsense for 40 years in order to become POTUS.
Some dude who was in the IL state senate 4 years ago took it away from her.
Thankfully, NY and DC are smoke free.....otherwise there would be flying ashtrays headed at people’s head.
Very well said.
Now if the 71 year old were a conservative I would agree with you.
But he is a 71 year old who hasn’t figured out that these libs who he tries to reach out to will stab him in the back.
Yeah, no obstacles whatsoever for this sickly looking, chain-smoking, anorexic, alleged former crack user... the Poster Boy of good health!
Some people can look cool with a cigarette in their mouth. Obama is not one of them.
I was listening to the Mark Levin radio show earlier today and I think he summed this up best. McCain released years of records, thousands of pages of his medical history. While Obama has a note from his doctor. :)
**But he is a 71 year old who hasn’t figured out that these libs who he tries to reach out to will stab him in the back.**
I don;t think we have a choice in the matter because right now, this pseudo-RINO is all we’ve got.
Obama should be forced to take a drug test, what with all his looney gaffs. After all, he’s admitted to drug use in the past. This is the presidency we’re talking about here- not a job flipping burgers at McDonalds.
