Now a soon-to-be published biography by David Maraniss entitled “Barack Obama: The Story” gives more detail on Obama’s pot-smoking days, complete with testimonials from young Barry Obama’s high school buddies, a group that went by the name ‘the Choom Gang.’ Choom was slang for smoking marijuana.”
He goes on further to point out that Obama was not just any ‘midnight toker,’ but was known “for starting a few pot-smoking trends.”
Barry, as the President was known as in high school, was engaged in a method he created, called “Total Absorption” or “TA” for short.
“TA was the opposite of Bill Clinton’s claim that as a Rhodes scholar at Oxford he smoked dope but never inhaled,” explains Maraniss. Here’s how it worked: If you exhaled prematurely when you were with the Choom Gang, “you were assessed a penalty and your turn was skipped the next time the joint came around.”
As one of Obama’s old high school buddies tells Maraniss: “Wasting good bud smoke was not tolerated.”
But the Thomas Edison of smoking weed did not stop innovating there, for “TA” alone could not satisfy him. He was the father of “Roof Hits.”
“When they were chooming in a 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.”
That's an interesting look into Barry's past, you can't say Barry didn't do his best to "choom" as much as he could!
I can't wait to read the new book "The Amateur," if that first peek is indicative of the rest of the book there should be lots of information about Barry's history with blow, alleged same sex relationships, and who knows what else!
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

You mean like the unfounded attempts to linking Bush to cocaine?

But I'm waiting to see if he can post EVEN ONE attribution of Obama doing ANYTHING wrong such as he is accusing him of.
