Belgium’s Prime Minister Fires Shot At Obama With World Cup Beer Bet
Shots, as they say, have been motherfucking fired. Belgium Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo (great name for a leader of a country), who sports a quaffed comb over in his Twitter avatar that would set your mom’s panties on fire, has proposed a bet to United States President Barry Obama based on the outcome of Tuesday’s soccer match between the U.S. and Belgium.
Here’s the proposed bet, via Twitter:
Hey @BarackObama, I am betting some great Belgian beers that our @BelRedDevils will make it to the quarter final! 🙂 #ComeOnBelgium #BEL

That “:-)” may seem like friendly banter to the casual observer, but make no mistake about it. That was a calculated move–the move of a smug, confident, asshole leader of a country who thinks he’s got this bet in the bag.
This wouldn’t be the first time Barry accepts such a wager, if he were to do so. He paid his beer debt to Canada after the U.S. hockey team was defeated by our cover band during the Sochi Olympics this year.
@NSCPress YES! Thank you! The @WhiteHouse beer is safe & sound in #AmbDoer’s office… for now 🙂 #viewfrom501 pic.twitter.com/AjHp0DNFPU

Say what you want about the POTUS, but sideshows like this make him fairly likable. I think he accepts.
Ah, another opportunity for Obama to look like a pussy.

10 years ago at 4:16 pmIf you can’t back Obama enjoying a beer how about honest Abe:
“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.” ~Abraham Lincoln
10 years ago at 3:02 pmLove the quote, but Abe Lincoln was a chotch.
10 years ago at 4:46 pmAnybody who supports that greasy euro trash bastard over our President is un-American, and needs a swift kick to the nads.
10 years ago at 3:15 pmExcuse me? Fuck Obama he’s. Little boy
10 years ago at 6:41 pmMaybe the President should initiate a bet over something we can win sometime.

10 years ago at 2:24 amLooks like the president has a new reason to do some more blow.
10 years ago at 4:21 pmI hate how the World Cup makes undeveloped countries feel like they matter.
10 years ago at 4:41 pmBelgium isn’t an underdeveloped country fuckface
10 years ago at 6:13 pmI’m against Obama, but goddamn is he a total bro.
