Obama's Beer Summit

A friend wrote about Obama's Beer Summit and that some politicians are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

The Beer Summit may have been the coolest moment in US Presidential history. There are a lot of things that Obama has been doing that drives me crazy*, but sitting down with those two guys and having a talk over beer was just pure innocent, getting-to-the-heart-of-the-matter, genius. So casual and so disarming a way to defuse a tense situation that threatened to blow up (fueled by all parties). The president invites you to have a beer with him. What can you do?

Now a situation that began badly could turn into a catalyst for social improvement, with the two parties working together rather than work as adverseries.

I'm surprised that there was not more controversy over the beer served ...beer politics (*sigh*).

A beer with the President-- how cool is that!




*Mostly involving spending inconceivable amounts of $$$, and having those few able to survive financially pay that bill.
