Budweiser spews words |

I didn't found it, but I woulda if I'd been around. But I wasn't. That's why I didn't. We’re honored to be part of the fabric of this country. Anheuser-Busch employs more than 18,000 people and our independent distributors employ an additional 47,000 valued colleagues. We have thousands of partners, millions of fans and a proud history supporting our communities, military, first responders, sports fans and hard-working Americans everywhere. We like it that we make a lotta money so our kids can go to schools like Harvard and that sort of thing. Lotsa people have jobs with AB and it'd be a shame if they lost them. Lotsa people depend on us. We never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people. We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer. We didn't know it was loaded. We're trying not to bleed out here... Ma?...It's getting darker! Izzat you, Ma? My time serving this country taught me the importance of accountability and the values upon which America was founded: freedom, hard work and respect for one another. As CEO of Anheuser-Busch, I am focused on building and protecting our remarkable history and heritage. I wuz in the Marines, y'know. If it's raining shit don't forget yer umbrellla... I care deeply about this country, this company, our brands and our partners. I spend much of my time traveling across America, listening to and learning from our customers, distributors and others. I care deeply about my job and keeping my family fed. I spend much of my time traveling across America in a carriage pulled by eight Clydesdale, wearing clothing so fine it can't even be seen by dullards. Moving forward, I will continue to work tirelessly to bring great beers to consumers across our nation. Wanna buy some beer? We're having a sale. Brendan Whitworth She hasn't left yet, but we've hired somebody to walk in front of her ringing a bell and hollering "Unclean! Unclean!" CEO, Anheuser-Busch Mulvaney popped a tampon when he heard it. If he hadn't fallen on a pile of money he'd have broken his neck! |

#5 The real question is not the several billion dollars of losses since this thing blew up, but any net change in the financial picture of the entire company. According to Wikipedia, these are Anheuser-Busch’s brands: Major Brands Budweiser and Bud Light, including variations Michelob and variations Rolling Rock Busch Shock Top Natural Johnny Appleseed hard cider Land Shark Lager Acquired Craft Beer Breweries Goose Island Blue Point 10 Barrel Elysian Golden Road Four Peaks Breckenridge Karbach Wicked Weed Malt Liquors King Cobra Hurrican Spykes Then there are the specialty beers and AB’s minority investments in independent breweries. Also, how long any change might last. The entire managerial class is convinced that conservative consumers will not long remember their desire to punish for this insult, but will soon drift back to old purchasing habits. |

#3 Carefully monitored by counsel to avoid any hint of culpability for the coming shareholder lawsuit. He said nothing smoothly because even though you company lost billions in net worth, you are terrified of angering queer men in dresses stamping their feet and calling you names. Somehow Semper Fi turned into simper DIE! |

#2 Those are the words you say when your severance package just got much nearer and smaller. |

#1 This is not your demographic, AB, and once your customers move on to another product many of them will never be back. |
