Most Masculine President In History drinks beer like he’s at an English tea party

This is something we’ve wondered about for months and haven’t mentioned. But it seems appropriate to bring it up in light of the President’s vitally important beer diplomacy at the White House today.

What’s with President Obama’s dainty fingertip grip on his beer, his little finger extended as if in parody of the rules of etiquette at an English tea party? It’s not something he did once. It’s something he does every time he downs a cold one.

We’re not saying this is a big deal, so our liberal readers should relax. But is this any way for the Most Masculine President in History to grab a brewski?

Could it be that he’s just an effete snob?

Yes, right on the money:

Effete:

1. Depleted of vitality, force, or effectiveness; exhausted: the final, effete period of the baroque style.
2. Marked by self-indulgence, triviality, or decadence: an effete group of self-professed intellectuals.
3. Overrefined; effeminate.
4. No longer productive; infertile.

Snob:

1. One who tends to patronize, rebuff, or ignore people regarded as social inferiors and imitate, admire, or seek association with people regarded as social superiors.
2. One who affects an offensive air of self-satisfied superiority in matters of taste or intellect.

Any chance he broke that finger somewhere along the way and it just doesn’t bend naturally anymore?

What really gets my blood a boilin’ is the hypocracy in the media. Swap Obama’s face in these pictures for Bush’s and imagine the outcry. Don’t get me wrong, like every other adult in the country Obama has the right to drink and smoke. It’s just the double standard that gets me angry.
I saw another write-up that noted Obama had selected Budweiser as his beer of choice for this meeting. Sounds like a pathetic attempt to pander to the average American to me. A lot like Kerry did on election night in 2004. Isn’t Anheiser Busch a foreign company now? If you’re going to pander, shouldn’t you at least select an American owned brewer?

Well, he does throw like a girl and wears Momma pants, so what do you expect?

Damn it, I just picked up a glass of water for a test drink and sure enough my little finger is the same as the One. Its too early for a can of MGD but will rerun the test when the sun sets over the yardarm.
