Group: Beer Summit Should Be Lemonade

Religious groups plan to picket the White House Thursday, asking President Barack Obama to opt for lemonade instead of beer when he meets with Sgt. James Crowley and Henry Louis Gates Jr., according to The Washington Post .

The protest is being organized by Pray at the Pump, an organization that held group prayers for divine intervention to lower fuel prices .

Beer sends the "wrong message to our nation's youth who are becoming alcoholics at young ages," Rocky Twyman, founder of Pray at the Pump, said in a statement. "Whether or not he likes it, President Obama is a role model for all the youth in America. His actions count."

The Woman's Christian Temperance Union also has objected to the beer summit. "There are so many other beverages he could have chosen that would have served just as well," said president Rita K. Wert, suggesting lemonade or iced tea.

As the beer summit approached, there was a lot of speculation as to what beer would be served and what the choices mean . On Wednesday, the choices were apparently made.

Obama chose Bud Light for himself, professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. expressed a preference for Red Stripe or Beck's, while Cambridge, Mass., police Sgt. James Crowley said he liked the Coors product Blue Moon.
