He is thumbing his nose at the Cook County Property Tax agency, saying, "I don't pay no stinking property taxes". After he sells his house, he will thumb his nose at the IRS, saying, "I don't pay no capital gains tax".

Rahm, are you saying that smoking keeps you from cheating on your wife? Hmmm

[UsofA]

I think he was referring to the traditional cigarette after sex.

I think he was talking about how the day before Gov. Sanford's bombshell confession went off,the talking point was the President was untrustworthy because he sneaks a joe every now & then.

Clinton used a cigar on Monica.
Rahm uses a cigarette.

[CitizenFarmer]

And this administration is supposed to increase our respect in the world? Rahm is first, all about Rahm. Second, all about Israel. Third, all about Rahm. Fourth and all, all about Rahm

Your guys took our respect in the world down so low, up was the only direction it could go.
