Kenya.ppAny combination of these conditions can render it damn near
impossible to kick the smoke habit.ppEfforts to quit abruptly
without professional help often result in raw nerves, emotional
outbursts, irrational language, and uncooperative, combative
behavior.ppSpeaking of which, in a number of situations recently,
President Obama has exhibited the sort of freefloating rage which
is commonly the result of abrupt nicotine withdrawal.ppCalling
progressives Sanctimonious Purists and conservatives Hostage Takers
as Obama did, is quite typical in one who is fighting himself and
the urge to sneak a quick puff in the Rose Garden of the White
House.ppHaving a job which demands that he act NOW on high
unemployment, expiring tax cuts, revolutions by members of his own
party, North Korea, Iran, elusive peace between Israel and the
Palestinians, a doubledip recession, gays in the military, illegals
everywhere, and other gutwrenching issues of the day do not make it
easy for Obama to cope without the soothing flow of poisonous smoke

America.ppThat means quitting the quitting, Mr. President. In other
words, smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette!ppDo it for the children,
