We've been so impressed with the funniness of our readers, that we decided to tap your brains for another weekly project. The You Make the Call Joke Challenge. Every week, we'll point you toward a news item that's dying to have fun made of it, and then you can have your chance to fun make of it. Or, er, something like that.

Obamasmokes This week, we're asking for your help in commenting on the scandal that's currently rocking "journalists" with lots of free time on their hands: Barack Obama smokes cigarettes! Can the Illinois Senator keep his promise to the American people that he'll quit?

Here's what we'd like from you: Write your best and funniest piece of advice to help Barack quit his "dirty little secret" and leave it in the comments. Enter as many times as you like. We'll choose a winner middle of next week.

Thanks for helping us to do our jobs. We owe you one.

I just know I'd never vote for a smoker for president because they're afraid of dogs and they can't swim and all they want to do is live on welfare and rape our non-smoking women. Smokers do love watermelon though, and I'm definitely pro-watermelon.

Barack will never get a girl like Monica Lewinsky smoking cigarettes. For that, you need to smoke big thick cigars. Now that's Presidential.

I love how the GOP mind numbing tactics has hit this board. Do you all gather round and circle jerk on the weekend? Is it to a picture of Ann Coulter? You know she is a man right? Maybe if you did your homework, you would know that Obama no longer smokes. However I know that for Bush a line, isn't just for standing it.

The easiest way to quit smoking is every time you get a craving for a cigarette, get your dad to put you in charge of a corporation and run it into the ground. You'd be surprised at how well that works. And it's great practice for the White House.

I think it shouldn't matter after all I think the Bush adminastration has been blowing smoke out of there asses anyway.

If he wants to be president, he should take heed from the current administration and learn how to control the media. To change the topic he could have just pointed out that his middle name is "Hussein," so it seems a little overkill to have fabricated a story about his childhood education, foist it upon a wingnut newspaper, and then (in his best Hillary impersonation) call up Fox and Friends to point out the breaking news.

The dirty little secret that he should be ashamed of is that he watches Fox and Friends, not that he smokes. I'm still waiting until the media finds out about how his bout with polio left him a paraplegic. (See how I'm not crass enough to follow this up with a remark about blowjobs being off the table? I must be sober…)

I would never vote in a smoker. I want a real man that does white drugs. None of this girly cigarette shit.

I hear watermelon is a fantastic nicotine-craving suppressant.

Mr. Obama,

If you would like to quit smoking, just visualize each cigarette as if it were George Bush's little pencil dick. Would you really want that coming anywhere near your lips?

Smoking may lead to erectile dysfunction. We need a leader with BALLS and lead in his pencil….not a flacid addict who is knowingly consuming and promoting the single most avoidable direction to cancer on this planet.

This is a time of war! Talking about smoking will only embolden the enemy.
