This article was really nowhere near as bad as I’d hoped it would be. There is nothing incriminating, and no real new information, unless of course, you were one of the folks with an IQ under 6 who got duped into thinking the guy with an IQ of 7 was a genius. Assuming you weren't one of those people, because most of them have STILL yet to figure out they've been played, then chances are you already knew Obama was an idiot. If you’re looking for REAL dirt, SERIOUS dirt, like his childhood friend’s mother saying that Obama had her boy killed, to cover up their love affair, then check the links at the bottom.

I will say, does it surprise anyone that Barry used to jump people when it wasn’t his turn for a hit? Ugh. The guy disgusts me. Like, give Barry his fair share man...

A new book detailing Barack Obama’s extensive marijuana use in high school and college paints a picture of the president which is much seedier, grungier and crass than was previously thought.

Obama doesn’t have a stellar reputation at this point in his presidency, and David Maraniss’ book isn’t going to help it any.

“A self-selected group of boys at Punahou School who loved basketball and good times called themselves the Choom Gang,” Maraniss writes in Barack Obama: The Story. “Choom is a verb, meaning ‘to smoke marijuana.'”

Obama attended Punahou School in Honolulu, where he became known for starting various pot-smoking trends, like “TA,” which was short for “total absorption.”

If Barry caught you exhaling precious marijuana instead of absorbing it fully into your lungs, you were penalized and your turn was skipped the next time the joint was passed around.

According to Maraniss, “Along with TA, Barry popularized the concept of ‘roof hits’: when they were chooming in the car all the windows had to be rolled up so no smoke blew out and went to waste; when the pot was gone, they tilted their heads back and sucked in the last bit of smoke from the ceiling.”

“Barry also had a knack for interceptions,” writes Maraniss. “When a joint was making the rounds, he often elbowed his way in, out of turn, shouted ‘Intercepted!,’ and took an extra hit. No one seemed to mind.”
