The Beer Summit
I have to say, Skip Gates had an excellent line:
As to the beer:
I have to give props to Sgt. Crowley for being the only attendee at the summit to choose a halfway decent beer--and a seasonally appropriate one at that.
As to Gates and President Obama, I have to say that, on account of their drinking lite beer, they are pussies.
And as to Obama drinking Bud Lite, I don't know which disappoints me more: that it's a pandering choice, meant to be conspicuously non-"elitist"; or that he actually enjoys drinking that tasteless carbonated piss.

"When he’s not arresting you, Sergeant Crowley is a really likable guy.”
As to the beer:
The four drank out of beer mugs. Mr. Obama had a Bud Lite, Sergeant Crowley had Blue Moon, Professor Gates drank Sam Adams Light and Mr. Biden, who does not drink, had a Buckler nonalcoholic beer.
