But it wouldn't be a contrived Washington event without a contrived Washington protest. Already, "Citizens Against the Beer Summit at White House", a makeshift gathering spearheaded by Baltimore pastor Dr. Emmett Burns, will picket the White House today between 12 and 3 p.m. "The president's actions are sending the wrong message to our nation's youth who are becoming alcoholics at young ages," reads an announcement for the protest. "This pernicious habit is also the reason for the large number of teen motor vehicle accidents throughout the country."
I disagree with Dr. Burns. I think the President is setting a good example of what drinking responsible looks like. Now if he jumps on the picnic table and starts singing karaoke or uses obnoxious pick-up lines on the female gardener, then we might have a problem. But it is perfectly ok for adults to consume adult beverages, as long as it is done responsibly.
But wouldn't it be funny if these three guys got rip-roaring drunk. People would forget all about the President needlessly interfering in a local police issue.
