- zach 16y agoNo doubt countless Cuban smokers have said it since Mort Sahl attributed to him, because it's a great line. I can't see Clinton, famously circumspect in such matters, cracking that joke to a reporter, though. I like the Kennedy misattribution better, but the attested anecdotes about Jack Kennedy and Cuban cigars are pretty great too: http://cubanmadecigars.com/kennedy.html http://cubanmadecigars.com/kennedy.html
