If Obama was a party man like that, I would try to make him president for LIFE.
Also, Biden had a nonalcoholic beer? At that point, why not grab a G2, Sprite, or water?

Well at least it spared them having to talk about how having a fairer healthcare system for low income people is the back door to communism, or whatever.
Although Fox news did manage to complain about the Presidents beer choice, saying it wasn't american enough. I imagine they did that little segment in between wondering whether he's a real american or not.

It's okay. I get three quarters of my news from The Colbert Report.
Here's another good XKCD strip:

It was news because he said this-
"the (enter name of town here, I can't remember) police department acted, well, stupidly.)
And because, as the great Colbert said, Obama has to be on every cover of time magazine.

The Daily Show is arguably the best American news show there is. Far better than Fox News anyway.

That was pretty funny. You would think the President would have more urgent matters like, running the country. I could be wrong.

Even a president has to have some downtime sooner or later, and if sharing a beer to smooth out a misunderstanding saves him from the media calling him a racist bigot that's not a bad bonus.

He could have saved himself the grief by keeping that big yap SHUT.
Biden? Is a big enough idiot sober...God help us when he's drunk. I dont think he has that many brain cells to spare

From TheStar.com
Reporters paraded within 20 metres of the Rose Garden for a brief glimpse found an unexpected fourth guest – U.S. Vice-President Joe Biden, a late addition, sipping on a glass of non-alcoholic Buckler beer.

BOO! BOO JOE BIDEN! BOO!
