Obama Smokes Neb. Courthouse
The Adams County Courthouse meeting room in Nebraska will soon be getting an official portrait of President Barack Obama nearly 18 months after Obama was elected. The portrait will hang in a spot that had held a framed black-and-white image depicting the President with a cigarette hanging from his mouth. That photo — a notorious fake — drew a complaint from a county official who found it disrespectful. It’s extraordinary that after all Obama’s time in the spotlight that there’s still no credible pic of him smoking. Almost makes one think that the story that he does smoke is invented — to make him seem more human.
