Quote of The Day
Posted by Bossip Staff
Barack Obama on smoking weed back in the day:
“I did,” the senator from Illinois said to light applause. “It’s not something I’m proud of. It was a mistake as a young man.” The question was a reference to a line made famous by former President Bill Clinton who, while admitting to trying marijuana, said he did not inhale.
“I never understood that line,” Obama continued. “The point was to inhale. That was the point.”
Republicans are already blasting Obama for setting a bad example for young people. We think someone who tells the truth and doesn’t speak sideways is setting a good example for young people.
Damn, you know some hypocritical politicians are going to play up he smoked rocks back in college. Bossip has his back!

isn’t G.W. Bush known for abusing cocaine, alcohol and skipping out on fighting in ‘Nam??
Obama is a saint compared to that.
aint nothing wrong with marijuana anyway.
to quote Nate Dogg “smoke weed everyday!”
Atleast he added that it was a mistake, so how can he be sending the wrong message. These people make me so sick.
Obama is a Negro and his middle name is Hussein. He hasn’t got a snow ball’s chance in hell of becoming President of the United States of Hysteria and Paranoia.
didn’t he said he did cocaine and not rocks. Rocks is a cheaper form of cocaine.
Doesn’t it say in the bible: “Let those without sin, cast the first stone”???
Everyone has done something in their past that they’re not proud of and give me a break – he’s not trying to become Reverend Obama, Pastor Obama, The Pope Obama…Just the president, and I believe this country has a lineage of un-perfect presidents.
Aside from the fact that he’s a politician like all the others and its basically a job requirement to lie as well as one possibly can-I hope he does become president, so I can be wrong this time instead of all the people who still ‘beleive’ in the honesty of politicians.
**cosign Jhonny Black***
the truth hurts- and the only candidates who’s words are really stinging the establishment’s are Kucinich’s and Ron Paul’s
Look, I am a black Republican and have the utmost respect for Obama. That’s what’s so lacking in this world today. TRUTH! If I were voting for a Democrat, he is the only one who would get my vote. Bill and Hillary lied to get into the White House, and lied during the Impeachment hearing. She has no experience what so ever and regardless of Obama’s name, he would damn sure make a better President then lying racist Hillary Clintin!
I got your back Obama,just do me a favor and leave the white girls alone once you become president. Them Republicans are waiting for you to mess up. We all know politicians are saint either so they can go on with that non-sense of Obama setting a bad example. I bet 98% are sleeping around on their wives(with another man) or another woman, so I don’t want to hear the BS. Men, money and power don’t mix well. Obama in 08′!!!!
Obama is right the point is to inhale!!! Who tries & not inhale. Bill makes it seem like he was peer pressured…which we know isnt true….. Obama ‘08…No one is perfect and his mom/dad, your mom/dad, Bossip mom/dad, & my mom/dad have done things they arent proud of but that doesnt mean they havent learned from it……..
Well, it’s not like Bush was not a *****e head, and had his share (and a few other folks) of drinks. Lets not let this be an issue
Are these the Republicans blasting Obama the same Republicans who voted for Bush twice? I bet they are.
ATX Queen:
Good point!
Everybody know that all politicians are shady… just look at the whole Bush election fiasco… and any of your local goverment officials. Most politicians shiesty ***** and it just isn’t publicized– esp. as long as they’re paying the right people.
Well at least he told the truth. Most politicians dance around the truth!!!
The brother is making Hilary work hard. I wish him the best but YOU KNOW HOW IT IS!!!
JohnnyBlack,couldnt say it better myself. as ignorant as it sounds his name alone will turn many voters away.
bossip really need to stop sucking his *****, just because hes black does not mean he should be president. sure he has nice ideas but hes inexperienced. even if was elected (let alone won the democratic ticket) do you expect him to be some savior for black people? hes just gonna be a puppet.
I see a recurrin theme here, a dope smoker runnin for president and a dope takin olempic runna and they both niggras, i guess you wood call this a ethnic weekness.
I love you Bama!!!
I guess there was no klan meeting tonight! They showed up here

Did he say smoking weed was a mistake?
Lost my vote.
LOL
The people blasting him — they kill me. The U.S. is not exactly a puritanical society.
Gimme a *****in’ break.

And this issue affects me in what way?
I respect the man for being honest. Better to let things out now because the mudslinging will only get worse once we get closer to the election. Vote Barack in 08!
So Michelle Obama looked younger than him at one point. Cant say that is the case now!
the same republicans who jump on obama about not setting a good ethical example are the same republicans who are cheating on their spouses or are on their 2nd or 3rd marriage because they wanted to upgrade looks once the made it. rush limbaugh is allover obama but he was hooked on painkillers and receiving them illegally. i agree with the guy above me who said obama doesnt have a chance that is true but i will vote for him anyway but america is so racist and blacks are only 10% of the country so i know hollywood has all the mixed couples in movies and on tv but america is still really racist and obama cant be president even if he wins the democratic nomination when its time to elect president you will have people who normally vote democrat voting republican just to keep him out of the office. you should read some blogs on white websites and you will see how far this country has not come because when you are voting it is private and your true feelings can come out just like in those blogs and americas true feelings are to fear black men.
I thought the post said that Republicans probably will criticize him for this statement. I don’t think the post named any that have already, only Bossip has posted it that I have seen. Partisan hatred serves no one. We should open our minds to the best candidate,period.
wow! Barack Obama DESERVES to be criticized, how DARE him, a politician be HONEST!!! he shall be sentenced to 200 lashes for not lying and blaming it on illegal immigrants, the feminist movement, abortion and gays.
@ here we go
And don’t forget Rap Music.
Damn, you ppl are sad, ignorant and full of self-hate! Just the way you’ve been trained to be!!!!!
How many of these so called politicians get busted every year for being serious closet *****s? I mean… years of “in yo face” lying, and voting against gay legislation while they got more tang in them than Sour Patch Kids.
You would think with all of these lying *****s in the office that Senator Obama’s admittal of the truth would not be and should not be used against him.
I swear…white folks slay me with the ***** they get away with.
“And don’t forget Rap Music”
you took the words right out of my mouth!!!!
…but of course it was “rap music” that made Obama take a puff!! what else could it have been??
and I’m sure it was also “rap music” that made Marion take those “enhancers”…
Lmao @ Harlem Chic “more tang than Sour Patch kids”!!!
Funny *****, but oh so true!
***** WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY OBAMA DID WAAAAAY BACK IN THE DAY!
DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LETS TALK ABOUT THOSE BLOATED, THIEVES, LAIRS, SNAKES, WHITE COLLAR CRIMMINALS WHO STEAL MONEY FROM THE PLANET EARTH.
KILL ENTIRE GENERATIONS JUST FOR BLOOD MONEY AND STILL CONTINUE TODAY.
THEY WILL SIT A DISECT EVERYTHING THIS WONDERFUL BLACK MAN DOES!
***** THAT!
I got his back too lol
finally got something right. Our very own president did *****e, and I’m sure most of friends did it with him. Those motha*****ers LOVE *****e and prostitutes (male or female), so at least Barack is being upfront. But I’m still voting for Ron Paul. America can’t run on Charisma, WE NEED CHANGE!
Please they need to stop, they are all on something illegal or legal.
That’s some bull. President Bush’s criminal record is on sealed for 50 years. Now why would you have to seal your criminal record unless you had some bad ish in there. At least Obama is telling the truth. Those effing politicians kill me with their hypocritical *****es.
@*****CATFUN
I’m with you. What about all those *****s involved with ENRON? They hurt more people than Obama did by smoking some weed.
I am as square as they come & I tried it a million years ago. Didn’t like it & never tried anything else. Anyone that said they haven’t tried it is a liar. The young people will probably listen to him before they listen to those stuck-up, lying, cheating, holier than thou Republicans. America is not winning the war on drugs. These politicians need another stratergy, like getting kids to stay in school, reward them for staying in school & get them in a career they like & will be able to live off since they will have to be 100 to collect Social Security thanks to our corrupt, don’t care about anyone, better than everyone politicians.
How can any politician talk smack when our own president use to be a *****e-head? Folks are a trip nowadays, I swear.
Yeah… i have his back too! ***** all the haters!
Yeah… i have his back too! ***** all the haters! He’s starting to edge out Hillary in Iowa, and I can’t wait for him to win the nomination and presidency! IT’S TEAM OBAMA *****!
What I would like to know is what would they be saying if he hadn’t said anything & they just found out. Then they’d be angry at that. And if I remember correctly wasn’t G.W. Bush an alcoholic? Can you say Hypocrites!!!!
How dare the Republican’s…when they have an old dried up ex-*****e user and drunkard in the White-House called GEORGE. W. BUSH? If my memory serves me correctly as well as others…the president had a rampant drug *****e problem, as well as an alcohol drinking problem, and as far as I am concerned, he is a dry drunk, he and ***** Cheney (getting drunk and shooting someone in the face)! Why don’t people stand up and remind these damned WASPS about their ish too! At least Clinton didn’t exhale and Obama did…that did not lead to them destroying the country or other countries the last time I checked!
Isis & JohnnyBlack took the words out of my mouth
America isn’t ready for a man with an un-American name to become an American President, its not ignorance its just a fact. Blacks are only 12% of the U.S. population and 4%of us don’t vote ad these are the ones supporting Obama, 4% of us are republican, and 4% of us are going to end up voting for Hillary. The odds are not in his favor. And yes he has white supporters but come on now in the end they are going to support the candidate who looks more like them.
Bossip is really jocking this dude only because he is black which does not guarantee that he won’t sell out if he ever got elected, charisma and inexperience doesn’t qualify anyone black or white to be president. Obama could say that he is the anti-christ, a terrorist, child molestor, rapist etc. and blacks would still support him because of his phenotype.
This is what’s wrong with black people, we support these black folks when noone else does and once they get into a position of power they forget the people who got them there.
I’ve never done drugs. There’s already pot and *****e head in the white house. Obviously, it causes some permanent damage.
Blackacre
Are these the Republicans blasting Obama the same Republicans who voted for Bush twice? I bet they are.
lol ppl are so stupid they find the most idiotic thing to pick on and ppl actually listen, thats life u have premarital sex, smoke a lil weed, do a lil x, whatever ur pick, but then u grow up, it aint like he said “man i was a weedhead for a minute dawg”, ppl try ***** and he decided early on it wasnt a good idea, like bossip says ppl respect honesty
