Topic: Secondhand Smoke

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs addresses media inquiries regarding President Barack Obama's ongoing struggle with cigarette smoking. The discussion follows a new Surgeon General report emphasizing the extreme dangers of secondhand smoke. Gibbs explains that the President smokes for enjoyment and relaxation to manage the pressures of the office, while the hosts criticize the secrecy surrounding the habit.

A new public service announcement campaign regarding secondhand smoke leaking through light fixtures and floorboards is identified as a potential marketing "meme." The hosts suggest this campaign is designed to create legislative pressure that ultimately benefits Pfizer's smoking cessation drug, Chantix. They argue that socialized healthcare will lead to further restrictions on smoking in private homes.
