Barack Obama has kicked the cancer sticks, his First Lady told reporters at the White House on Tuesday.

In fact, she reported that the President of the United States hasn’t had so much as a puff in the past year. Obama has been open about his cigarette habit in the past and his desire to fully quit, saying in 2009, “Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No.”

But it seems that, despite the stress of the past year, he’s managed to stay 100 percent on the wagon.

Nicely done, Mr. President. (via AP)
