On a recent campaign stop at a coffee shop in Knoxville, Iowa, President Obama chatted with a salesman for a beer distributor and found a common interest. The salesman, Bradley Magerkurth, brews his own beer, something the Obama White House has been doing. Magerkurth introduced himself to the president, then told him his friends and business clients call him “The Beer Guy.”
“It’s a little speech I’ve been giving for 15 years,” said Magerkurth, who has been trying to expand his portfolio of craft beer sales across the Midwest. “Beer is like bread. It’s a staple. And I’ve found that even in a tough economy, people aren’t going to give it up.”

What a cynic I have become. In what normally would have been a light hearted feature seems to have political overtones. All during the campaign, liberals in the media have been saying Mormons "Aren't so different..." which we all have come to realize means "Mormons are different.".
To continue my thought - since Mitt doesn't drink alcohol he must be different and not a regular beer drinkiguy link like Obama.
BTW globe - please check into the problems with posting today
Can you imagine the media brouha if any other president, except Obama brewed beer in the Whitehouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????
