A TOAST TO THE BEER SUMMIT

What a wonderful idea. Gather around the old White House picnic table and throw down a brewski or two. Discuss your squabbles. Iron out domestic agendas such as the Clunker Program. Speaking of clunkers, invite the VEEP but have him drink a nonalcoholic beverage. It's a beautiful scenario for our Prez and our country.

So what kind of beer would you have guessed that BO would have slugged down? Certainly not Adams for that President had character and guts and morals.

How about Busch? Are you kidding me? Busch? Bush.

Old Style from Chicago, a working class beer, might have been apropos, but then again, there's nothing old about the BO style. Some might even argue there's no style either. Invariably no class.

Miller Lite? No need. It's brewed in Wisconsin, a solid liberal state for the Dems.

Yup, it has to be Bud Light. It's too perfect. BO wants to be your bud. He goes out of his way to prove that he's just another Joe, he can identify; he can relate.

As far as the light. Again perfect. He is a lightweight in ideology. His whole administration might well be defined by his choice of beer.
