Moron of the Day: Beer Mongering!


It is a constant complaint of the left that the Republican party only maintains it's hold on the reins of power by fear mongering. We describe the real existence of thousands (if not millions) of terrorists who hate us and want to kill us while they literally predict the end of the fucking world on a daily basis.

Well, now their fear mongering has gone too far:

BEER will be short supply, more expensive and may taste different as climate change affects barley production, a scientist says.

Drought conditions in parts of Australia where malting barley was grown was likely to get worse, according to Jim Salinger of New Zealand's National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research.

I will not stand idly by and my family intimidated and terrified by ramped up warnings about impending beer shortages! To my fellow Wisconsinites, this is tantamount to suggesting air may be in short supply. After all, we are a state that found St. Patrick's day insufficient and created an additional Beer Day not three weeks later!

Keep your rotten fear mongering to yourself, Jim Salinger; today's Moron of the Day.

What Did They Do to Us?

Miller must hate Australians because they're going to start exporting Chill:

Miller Brewing Co.'s Latin-inspired brew is heading to Australia, marking the new beer's first entry into a market outside the U.S.

Miller Chill has done so well domestically since its release earlier this year that the company decided to export it to Australia, spokesman Julian Green said Monday.

The beer brewed with hints of lime and salt is part of the Milwaukee-based brewer's effort to promote premium brands as domestic sales of mainstream brews like Miller Genuine Draft slip.

Lime and salt. I lament the fact that they can't export all of that piss. We need more room on shelves in Wisconsin for real beer.

It Was Worth a Shot

Damn you Governor Doyle!!!

Wisconsinites can forget about getting free shots of liquor at their local grocery store.

Gov. Jim Doyle vetoed that provision of the new state budget Friday before signing the new two-year spending plan at a ceremony at the University of Wisconsin-Madison's student union.

A provision slipped into the budget at the last minute would have allowed up to 1.5 ounces of liquor to be handed out for free.

"To me, it's absurd that you walk into a grocery store and start taking shots," Doyle said.

Fascist!

Honestly, only in Wisconsin would this law even be contemplated. The funny thing is I can see people going from store to store getting sloshed with free samples. That would have been awesome but because of Doyle, the dream is dead.
