It’s clearly going to be a pilsner.

But then that wasn’t its actual name….

It is therefore understandable that she would be sensitive about being albino. That said, I fail to see how the Earl’s beer brand name can be considered to violate her human rights.

(And ever bigger butts)

That reminds me, at the Supreme Court oral argument yesterday, the Solicitor General ended his woeful week by talking about freedom: With all the new compulsions and coercions of Obamacare, “millions of people with chronic conditions like diabetes and heart disease… will be unshackled from the disabilities that those diseases put on them and have the opportunity to enjoy the blessings of liberty.”

The Solicitor General’s oral argument to the Supreme Court in favor of Obamacare sounds like it was taken straight from 1984: Slavery is freedom, Obamacare is liberty. Of course I am joking. It is not as if Big Brother says that we all must buy Obamacare?
