Why are my feelings kind of hurt since finding out that Barack is/was a smoker?

I mean lots of people smoke cigs... hell I've taken a puff or two. But to be deemed a smoker is yuck; that's just a nasty habit! I just can’t over the fact that Obama likes to puffity puff on the cancer sticks. Not even just socially, but like he’s trying to kick the habit – that’s kind of deep.

While it’s true that my admiration for Obama has almost surpassed my affection for Bill, this might set him back a little. I need for him to quit smoking like now. I don’t want to walk past him on the streets of DC and be awe struck only to be overcome by the smell of stale smoke. We don’t want to hear him give great speeches and start to hack up a lung. I am really bothered by this. I guess I just never pictured such an educated and talented man would have a weakness. I guess that’s the problem with holding certain people to unattainable standards. He is human just like everyone else.

Why couldn’t it be Hillary. That would actually make sense. She even kind of looks like a smoker. Sorry was that mean?
