Beer for Dummies

When Barack Obama opened up his big trap and went where the President of the United States should never go, I resisted the temptation to write about it on this blog. I figured that everyone and their grandmother would be posting on the subject, so why add my two cents in.

I’m of course, referring to the incident in Cambridge, Massachusetts when a white police officer by the name of James Crowley arrested Barack Obama’s friend and Harvard professor Henry Lewis Gates Jr. By now everyone but the dumbest of Obama supporters knows the details of this arrest, so I won’t go into it again.

However, I can’t help but to comment on the infamous “Beer Summit” held on the grounds of the White House, which was meant to bring all the involved parties of the incident together in order to achieve some sort of enlightenment on the issue of race. This idiotic meeting set up by Obama to save face and to reign in the controversy over his stupid remarks was so hokey that it was an embarrassment to all the participants and to the Office of the President in particular.

When I saw the video clips and read the details of this fiasco, I thought to myself that I would rather be at a Barry Manilow concert than to be sitting on that picnic table with that pathetic bunch.

My first observation was that the table and chairs they were sitting on looked kind of chintzy for something that would be on the grounds of the White House. By comparison, the patio table and chairs on my terrace look like pieces of fine art auctioned from Sotheby’s!

Another thing that caught my attention and hopefully the attention of every living and breathing American male is the fact that they were outdoors drinking their beer from glasses. Who the hell drinks their beer from a glass in that type of a setting? Why remove the beer from its already cold glass bottle to put it into a cheesy mug? Freakin’ amateurs!

Now for the beer selections of the participants.

It was reported that Barack Obama drank Bud-Lite. Now I don’t want to upset my friends who enjoy Anheuser Busch products, but to put it plainly – Bud-Lite sucks!

You may as well gather up some malt and barley, mix it up in a blender with water and you’d have a brew very similar to Bud-Lite. Since everything that Obama does is scripted to suit a purpose, I’d bet that he chose Bud-Lite because it’s supposedly an All-American beer that appeals to blue collar and union workers. I wonder if Obama heard the news that in June of 2008 Anheuser Bush was purchased by Belgium brewery, InBev?  By drinking “lite” beer, he believes he’s living up to his image of the health conscious stud that the fawning media has bestowed upon him.

The bottom line is that along with the economy, healthcare, and foreign policy, Obama doesn’t know jack about beer either!

It was also reported that Professor Gates chose to drink Red Stripe beer. Now Red Stripe is not a bad beer, but it’s definitely not a great beer either. Gate’s choice of the Jamaican brew is just another example of his Afrocentric mentality and his obsession with race. I believe Gate’s to be just another one of Obama’s radical America hating associates, and an out and out racist! The white table and white chair he was sitting on must have made his skin crawl. By the way professor Gates, Red Stripe Beer is owned by a British beverage company, Desnoes & Geddes, so you’re pretty much drinking a beer produced by whitey anyway.

As far as Sergeant Crowley, it was reported that he ordered Blue Moon beer brewed by Molson Coors Brewing Company in Toronto, Ontario. I can’t really comment on Blue Moon because I’ve never tried it. Compared to everything that’s available, it seems like a pretty lame choice. Although I support Sergeant Crowley in this controversy, I don’t’ believe that he’s exactly the brightest bulb in the room. I wonder if professor Gates knows that in Canada, Blue Moon is marketed and sold as Rickard’s White? Sergeant Crowley being from Massachusetts, I’m a bit surprised that he didn’t order one of the many excellent beers from Samuel Adams, which is about the only good thing to ever come out of the pathetic state.

Finally, there’s Vice Idiot Joe Biden! Who invited him anyway? Actually, I think he was invited by Obama at the last minute so that Sergeant Crowley wouldn’t feel outnumbered by Obama and Gates. Biden made it even-steven; two blacks and two whites. It was reported that Biden’s beer of choice was a Buckler. Buckler is a non-alcoholic beer produced by Heineken. Evidently, old Joe is a teetotaler! I would guess that Biden quit drinking after he realized that alcohol made him say stupid things. As we all know, now that he drinks non-alcoholic beer, that’s no longer a problem.

This whole Beer Summit idea was a loser from the get-go. It accomplished nothing, there were no apologies, and the beer selection stunk! The whole scene seemed overly staged and uncomfortable for everyone involved. I bet that no one wanted to be the first to finish their beer. They probably milked the whole glass for the entire dumb meeting. On a hot day like that, I and most red-blooded American men would have downed that first one in about 10 seconds and ordered another!

Just as everything else in the Obama administration, in the end this supposed conciliatory meeting was nothing but an outright farce.
