Did President Obama’s, Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr.’s, And Cambridge Police Sergeant James Crowley’s “Teachable Moment” Lead To “Drinking Buddy” Status Between Arresting Officer And Rowdy Professor?
Kum-Bah-Yah everybody. WBZTV is reporting Sergeant Crowley and Professor Gates were spotted hanging out together, sharing a booth and downing some brewskies in a Cambridge pub called “River Gods”. This time, however; apparently President Barack Husssein Obama was either not invited to “Beer Summit [II]” or was simply a “no show”. Hopefully, we’ll learn the truth regarding the latter statement and when we do, we’ll definitely be sharing it with you, our dear readers and/or co-bloggers here.
What have we learned from this “Teachable Moment” from this encounter, which was alleged to highlight the “evils” of racial profiling? The fact that beer tastes great and loosens folks up so they mind their manners (when consumed in moderation, of course) and can even create future beer drinking buddies? I believe this to be the case. In fact, that is how our Right Of Center Sunday Columnist, Mr. Christopher L. Doster and I quickly learned to get along after our political disagreements became quite fun and well (even mild) mannered after a few brewskis together in my formerly favorite pub. Since that day, Mr. Doster and I have become fast friends, have even discussed possible “bidness” dealings, writing projects, etc.
Perhaps the good professor and the good sergeant’s relationship has taken a similar turn thanks, indeed, to the president’s “Beer Summit [I]” and all of the above’s “Teachable Moment”. Ah, the magic we can all discover after a few sips of the Golden Nectar of The Gods. While the Cows keep begging us to “Eat Mor Chikken”, the blogospheres should keep urging us to wash that “Chikken” down with more brewskis…
Kudos and again: Kum-Bah-Yah!

Wonder how many beers the wage slave cop bought for the well paid ivory tower noble?
The Maharushdi mentioned today about perhaps having a beer summit with McNabb.
Ah yes, the Golden necter, your Coors draft and my “champagne of beers”. So many issues, so little time, hell lets just have another! No better way to find common ground GTL than over a cold one for sure. Maybe “beer summits” should be held instead of tea parties!
@CLD, AMEN and AMEN (Vego)!!!
Beer is good

OK, I’m high jacking this thread!
Edmunds.com makes White House enemy list! http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474977877787&grpId=3659174697241980
So, what happened? Edmunds had the audacity of truth to show the real cost of the Cash for Clunkers hoax. And point out that there will soon be a round of reposessions as people who had running vehicles turned them in and bought cars that they couldn’t really afford (sound a bit familiar?) will be behind on their payments in the not far distant future. Watch for a glut on the market for repos.
And how did the O, so transparant, tolerant, and inclusive former junior senator from IL respond? “Edmunds.com has released a faulty analysis suggesting that the Cash for Clunkers program had no meaningful impact on our economy or on overall auto sales. This is the latest of several critical “analyses” of the Cash for Clunkers program from Edmunds.com, which appear designed to grab headlines and get coverage on cable TV. Like many of their previous attempts, this latest claim doesn’t withstand even basic scrutiny.
1. The Edmunds’ analysis rests on the assumption that the market for cars that didn’t qualify for Cash for Clunkers was completely unaffected by this program. In other words, all the other cars were being sold on Mars, while the rest of the country was caught up in the excitement of the Cash for Clunkers program.”
My, my! How mature and presidential sounding.
Seems like the former ACORN worker follows the standard Dem method of debate – vilify, demonize, and belittle. And claim that any words of criticism are signs of hate.
Gonna be a long three more years.
