WASHINGTON (AP) - One day after signing legislation giving the government unprecedented power to regulate tobacco, President Barack Obama is admitting that he's sometimes "fallen off the wagon" in his own effort to stop smoking.
Obama told reporters Tuesday that he's "95 percent cured." But he added that "there are times where I mess up."
He said he's not a "daily" or "constant" smoker, and that he doesn't smoke in front of his kids.

Baaaawaaahaaaa. If that ain't junkie talk, I don't know what is.
What do you think, Become an Ex'ers? I bet we could give him some tough love if he came around here with that nonesense about being 95% cured. He's still chewing nic gum and smoking after 2.5 years. Doesn't sound anything like "cured" to me. Hell, I haven't had a cigarette in 16 months and I don't claim to be 95% cured. Smart guy like that, with his own Surgeon General, you'd think he wouldn't be such a dumbass about his own drug addiction. We've all been there, I guess.
Papa Jimmy? Peggy? Connie? Advice? I can just hear jonescarp!
Does he really think his kids don't know he smokes? Baaaawaaahaaa haaaaa.
"Fallen off the wagon". "Messing up". That sounds so cute and cuddly. Like a stuffed bear having a boo-boo. If he ever accepts that he's a drug addict, he might have a fighting chance to quit. Until then, he's just playing games with himself. Poor guy.
