Are those the ones that Clinton fancied? Here dear, have a cigar! That reminds me, during the Clinton administration, my wife and I attended the first Big Smoke in DC. It was a load of fun and I got to meet Ernesto Perez Carrillo, then owner of La Gloria Cubana in Miami (I used to buy the cigars directly in the factory) and Arturo Fuentes Jr. The reason we went to DC was because we were going to demonstrate in front of the White House, smoking cigars at Lafayette Park and then march to the event. The purpose of the demonstration was to uphold smoker's rights[8|] It was a total hoot, about 1500-2000 people at Lafayette Park smoking cigars (The whole place smelled like a cigar room)even the bums smoked cigars that day. We invited Bill to join us but he did not come. I am pretty sure he watched us from the oval office though. Even funnier was that foreign TV in Europe reported on the demonstration but nothing was shown on US TV.
