OMG! Obama seen drinking in public!

Posted by GoodStuffNW, March 26, 2009

Yup. That's him in the picture in today's NYT. Watching a ball game and drinking a beer.

According to an article in today's Times, he went to a (Chicago, of course) Bulls/Wizards game recently. And he and Michelle have even (gasp!) dined out at Washington restaurants like Equinox, Bobby Van's Steakhouse and other spots not normally associated with presidential appearances.

Whose cockamamie idea was this, anyway? Doesn't he know that a president isn't supposed to venture outside the bubble that is the White House with its sycophantic, self-referential babble? And how welcome a sign is that?

More to the point, even: What that beer he's drinking?
