Barack Obama is also having a Beer at the end of the day
It's official, Barack Obama is Part of the Beer Conspiracy!
In perhaps the most unusual sitdown of his administration, President Barack Obama hosted Prof Henry Gates, a prominent black scholar, and Sgt James Crowley, a white police sergeant, for beers in the White House Rose Garden on Thursday evening.
Mr Obama was hoping to defuse the angry racial furore that has raged since Sgt Crowley arrested Prof Gates for disorderly conduct at the Harvard academic’s own home in Cambridge, Massachusetts on July 16.
The President has acknowledged that he fuelled the controversy when he said that the police “acted stupidly” for arresting Prof Gates after he protested vociferously about Sgt Crowley’s actions during a burglary investigation.
Mr Obama invited the two men and Vice-President Joe Biden to join him for a symbolic beer and chat and to talk over their differences.
