Drinking on the job

What's with the president clutching beers in so many photos?

There's a shot in Florida here where he's clutching a beer while chatting with an unemployed construction worker.

And on October 6, the White House put out this photo (shown to the left) of the president sharing a beer with Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer back in September.

For more Obama brew shots, look here, here, and here.

In fact, the beer with Meyer was brewed at the White House.


Is the prez coming off as obsessed with his suds?

I can't wait until he's out of office. Maybe he can open the first presidential library with a bar and microbrewery.
