Obama signs anti-smoking bill, citing his own difficulty in breaking the cigarette habit, has a lot to do with the fact that "I'm just not a quitter". |
President Obama ruefully admitted on Monday that he's spent his adult life fighting the habit. Then he snuffed out his butt and signed the nation's toughest anti-smoking law, aiming to keep thousands of other teens from getting hooked. Obama praised the historic legislation, as he lit another Newport, which gives the Food and Drug Administration unprecedented authority to regulate what goes into tobacco products, to make public the ingredients and to prohibit marketing campaigns geared toward his children. But he didn't say how his own struggle was coming since he moved into the White House, and is not allowed to smoke indoors. And aides were no more forthcoming. |
