OBAMA DREW THAT BIG BERLIN CROWD WITH FREE BEER!!!!1!1!!!

No, he didn't. The beer and food were for sale, despite what wingnuts and (mostly) PUMAs are saying. Kevin at Rumproast actually has evidence, as well as links to the lies.

I keep citing Kevin's posts about PUMA disinformation because the PUMAs' lies work exactly like right-wing lies, and the GOP clearly finds them useful. I'm actually more concerned about the PUMAs than Kevin is -- he's said in comments here that he thinks they'll fade into irrelevance after the Democratic convention, whereas I suspect that the GOP plans to increase its focus on their whining in the weeks to come, probably as soon as Obama picks a running mate, assuming it's not Hillary Clinton. Certainly the PUMAs themselves aren't going to go willingly.
