To beer, or not beer.? That is the question...

The defective yeti has the scoop on the latest John Kerry flip-flop:

Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry rekindled a contentious election-year debate today, saying that be believes that beer begins at fermentation. The statement stands in stark contrast to the White House assertion that beer does not technically begin until its "born on" date.

The Bush campaign was quick to seize on the controversy, calling it the latest in a series of Kerry misstatements and reversals on the subject of the world's greatest beverage. "The senator from Massachusetts may be confused by the so-called 'beer' he prefers: imported, foreign brew, possibly even the nasty stuff from Belgium with the yeast at the bottom," spectulated Bush campaign spokesman Simon Wiley. "But here in America, it ain't beer until it's been bottled, preferably somewhere in the heartland of Milwaukee."

I know who I'd like to knock back a few beers with- the guy who didn't have to give up drinking...
