Well, that didn’t take long.
Seems everyone had a suggestion when it came down to beer day at the whitehouse. Most of them, not unexpectedly, with pro-American suggestions for the peace offering. And now, just like was predicted before the little get-together happened, after the smoke cleared and the guests were sober, everyone became a critic.
Folks are scratching their heads now on just why it is Obama, Gates and Crowley would dare to even think about drinking a beer made by a company not owned by Americans. Of course, they toss around the theory that it was just a mistake–they were under the impression, due to the presence Budweiser has in the US, that it was an American company. I can buy that. Of course it might just be that they drank what happens to be their preference. He may be the president of the united states, but that doesn’t mean he can’t have semi-decent taste in beer.
Note to the American-owned breweries. If the president won’t buy your product, it’s not a political statement. He just doesn’t like your beer. Live with it.
