Holy Schlitz - Obama's a Big Tipper!

So we got this pic of Barack Obama pounding a brew at the Raleigh Times Bar in Raleigh, North Carolina. And guess what we found out... Barack tipped $18 on a $2 Pabst Blue Ribbon.
The bartender told TMZ he poured Ms. Obama a free PBR because, "She's a lot cuter than he is."

Launch photosNow that's a Pabst smear!

48. People you are wasting your time talking about race. The issues of this campaign (Barack) is whether or not , the USA is ready to become a full flege Socialist society . He even refered to nationalizing oil. Barack ,apparently, is a go through politician to achieve this , concentration should be spent on the people behind barack.

50. 49. Someone on one of these pages made a interesting point.... Maybe a bi-racial person can awnser it for me. Why is it that people who are black and white tend to only view themselves as black?? I am not black or white but i have some family members who are asian and white and they date both white and asian guys and do not ignore either race. Also have friends who are hispanic and other and dont ignore either race.. Why does it seem when its black and white they only go black? Just curious.. not judging just wondering. By the way why is there no republican choice here??

Just take a look at many of the posts on here and you'll have your answer. The black community will accept them faster than the white community. We've come a long way, but as evidenced by the comments, we've got a long way to go.

52. Finally, a presidential candidate that carries money and pays his own way. What a concept. Oh, and his campaign pays its bills on time.

55. just wondering...the government classifies mixed race people by assigning them to whichever category is the minority group. This supposidly entitles them to protection or favoritism under the federal guidelines. I don't know if that is a factor in how mixed race individuals view themselves or not, it may just be that they identify with the group they most resemble physically.

56. that's probably the 1st ever PBR Obama has ever had. He's about as much "a man of the people" as the Queen of England is. I'm so over his elitism. He even looks uncomfortable in the photo! I hope he didn't pay that tip with his contributors money.

57. #59... It's simple... one speck of black (in interracial relations)... not just blacks, but whites consider them BLACK.

Black genes are DOMINANT

58. I'm gonna write in Hillary since Ted Kennedy, John Kerry and Bill Richardson all made sure Hillary didn't get the nomination.

59. 1. He made fun of Hilary for drinking beer in PA.
2. Maybe I should have a drink with him..he can explain to me why he listed to that prejudiced minister for 20 years....I don't buy his story on that at ALL

Posted at 3:32PM on May 7th 2008 by WHATEVER!

60. In The Great Year of 2008 We still have the Narrow minded idiots whose motto is I'll stick to the sterotypical Version of how a person is suppose to be. Like ok Barak is black so he'll automatically have that ghetto mentality and let everyone get a GUN. Cause in your mind thats what blacks do act immoral and have no common sense. Well with the comments i've seen posted on here I think most of you are immoral and lacking common sense and are uncapable of running a country. In his whole time running in the compaign mr Obama has not come of as ignorant undeducated immoral or Lazy or Racist. Now we want to judge him by the company he's kept ok Fine if thats the case all of you out there in TMZ land are racist arrogant pompous Jackazz cause unfortunately in America Everyone see's color. Yes even me cause thats the basis of this country wanna label everything and everyone. Want to build social and economical classes so some may feel superior. This is the most hypocritical Racist and Repugnate country. This Country was born on violence and thief and it continues to this day like your precious Bush won the election excuse me stole the first election. Then you all just wanna bicker and cry over the countries state now basically were in Reccession. I just feel sorry for the next person to take that seat in the oval office cause America is complaining now and if a minority or A woman or even Mccains old azz will get blamed for the state of the country. NO AMerican PEople Blame yourselves for having that 1950's Mentality to Think A sliver spoon fed rich boy from Texas would care about you and your children you see where he sent your kids over to fight this never ending War. Americans either shut up and open yourselves up to new ideas and new frame of mind or shut up and stay in the miserable state in which you put your country and your children.

Vote Obama
