Obama has some beers with dudes that caused a hubub.

For some insane reason a representative in the House doesn't like the choice of beers at the meeting.

I for one would have ordered either a Belhaven Scottish Ale or Coopers Extra Strong Vintage.

Story background for those unfamiliar:
A black Harvard professor who is at the top of the "who knows most about black issues" was arrested at his house when he got back from a trip and had to basically try to break into his own place. Neighbor called police, police came and arrested him for "disorderly conduct". Professor asked for an apology, arresting cop said "no". Obama said Boston police "acted stupidly", shit hit the fan, Obama wants to clear air by having Professor and Cop over for a beer at the White House.

Earlier this week the White House indicated each man would drink the beer of their choice — Bud Light for President Obama, Blue Moon for the police officer, and perhaps Red Stripe or Beck's for Gates.

I call BS on Bud Light being Obama's "beer of choice." Either he's lying about being a beer drinker and picked Bud Light as his favorite because he didn't know any better, or he's a beer drinker who lied about Bud Light being his favorite because its the more "All-American" choice than perhaps an import or another beer that people would deride him for being "elite" for preferring. I'm thinking the latter.

People drink Bud Light because it's ubiquitous and inexpensive (and it has drinkability!), but if you're the president of the United States and can drink anything in the world, are you ever having a Bud Light again? I don't think so.

This whole story in general just makes me shed a tear for the news media.

Really? The President's beer of choice? Must be a slow news day today.

It's more like a parodied version of FOX News.

Obama's choice in beer has caused me to pull my support from his administration.

Expect a bevy of news releases about this development tomorrow.

If it were up to me, the White House would just throw a trash can party.

I wish that were true, but I know several people who only drink Bud Light or Miller Light because they don't like any other beers. My wife is one of them. She won't even drink the stuff I brew myself. Some people just don't have a taste for anything but light, drinkable "shit" beer. Obama may be one of them.

But Bud Light is not an American beer technically, although it's a pretty common beer in these parts. The news media busted his balls for not having any American made beers at the meeting. FYI:
Gates had Red Stripe, the officer has Blue Moon, and Obama had a Bud Light.

And as you predicted, they are calling him un-American. Apparently beer is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Is the amount that a President can drink regulated?  I mean he kind of has to be on call at all times right?  Can he have enough beer to impair his judgment?

Me too.  We should hang out sometime.  Maybe a BBQ?

I think it's a good measure of the political climate that a politician can't even drink a beer without a bunch of people second guessing him.
