2 quick things

I heard a guy on the radio the other day equate the Democrats and the Republicans to Coke and Pepsi. I'm not sure what his point was with that comparison but I'll use it and push it a little bit further.

The democrats and the republicans are like Coke and Pepsi, but what we need is significantly more Dr. Pepper.

Take from that what you will.

Secondly, So Some cop busts a hot shot professor for breaking into a house only to find out it is the guys house. The guy claims its because he's black. Obama calls the police stupid for doing it. Now all three of them are having a beer together at the White House? How many arrests or police interventions occur on any given night in the U.S.? Maybe a few hundred thousand? I must have missed Obama's comments on all the other ones. If I was a cop I'd make a call to the white house to find out when it is my turn to have a beer with the president.

I really don't picture Obama drinking Budweiser either but I guess its possible. It's also possible that this is all being turned into some sort of ridiculouse PR stunt. One thing is for sure, it has definitely taken the media's attention away from the real issues the president should be working on. Who knows though, maybe a beer with the guys will help clear his head.
