Quit making smoking sound like some ‘depraved bum in a cardboard box’ kinda thing devolve!
Obama said in the campaign that he had quit smoking and had been using the nicotine gum.
People do that all the time, they quit for awhile and then at some point they pick one up and smoke it. They tried.
He has said repeatedly that he is still fighting it, still does sometime, etc.
There are White, well to do, attractive, Catholic women who still choose to smoke and their brains still function.
