No Big Loss

Miller Brewing busted giving $30K to a group that demonstrated in favor of illegal immigrants:

In March, Miller Brewing--pressured by illegal alien activists incensed over the company PAC's past donation to leading pro-immigration enforcement proponent GOP Rep. James Sensenbrenner, author of HR. 4337--issued the following statement gleefully publicized by Hispanic groups and media:

In productive discussions held yesterday, we agreed to:
1) Provide assistance to community efforts to reach out to specific members of the Senate and business associations in Washington D.C.
2) Make a clear public statement regarding our opposition to HR 4437 and our desire for appropriate immigration reform that provides adequate protection for the rights of undocumented immigrants.
3) Place print advertisements in Chicago and Milwaukee media stating our opposition to HR 4437.
4) Work with the organizations to explore opportunities for community-based partnerships with a particular focus on scholarships for undocumented students.

The declaration was issued by Nehl Horton, Senior Vice President, Communications and Government Affairs, Miller Brewing Company.

Of course, a boycott would be irrelevant - most Miller products taste like I'd imagine rodent urine tastes like.

But still.
