Obama fears his wife

Busted. President Obama was caught quipping to U.N. Special Rapporteur Maina Kiai that he doesn’t smoke anymore “’cause I’m scared of my wife” on what he didn’t realize was a live mike at the U.N. General Assembly on Monday. He also told Kiai that he hasn’t “had a cigarette in probably six years,” which isn’t quite true. According to Michelle Obama, the president was still sneaking drags for part of 2010, but fully quit by his annual checkup in 2011. He reportedly first agreed to stop as a condition set by his wife before running for office in 2008.
