I never liked Miller, either. Miller Hi-Life always tasted skunky to me. Bud and Coors are just boring ... “back then” I drank Michelob ... which really isn’t much better than Bud.

Consumer Response Center at 1-800-MILLER 6 for anyone wishing to speak to them about the events they sponsor.

Laura Ingraham just mentioned that Miller ALSO sponsored the ILLEGALS RALLY!! This Gay crap has gotten out of hand. I had nothing against gays before, but it’s getting DISGUSTING.....they are acting like UNCIVILZED ANIMALS with this anti-Christian crap.

It sort of makes sense that Miller Brewing would sponsor such an event when you consider how their beer sucks.

The article says CWA is contacting politicians, not Miller. The Catholic League is going after Miller, and AFAIK, Catholics do consume a fair amount of the suds.

“Well, they can count me out as a consumer.”

Not sure a silent boycott is the best approach here. We need more press to wake other companies up.

If you call, don't insult their product. It's not a boycott if you refuse to drink it because it tastes like crap.

I do not drink anything miller makes and I do not diginfy it by calling it beer. It is a rice and corn based malt beverage.

Fags have to mock Christian Values to somehow make themselves feel better about their immoral and filthy butt-sex!

Quick stat note to Miller CEO and board members.

This gay sponsorship is worse than the Dixie Chicks marketing strategy, where they poed about 50% of their potential market.

Miller is trying to po over 90% of their potential market with this outrage.

Miller Brewing Pulls Logo From ‘Last Supper’ Advertisement
By Randy Hall
CNSNews.com Staff Writer/Editor
September 26, 2007

(CNSNews.com) - “The Miller Brewing Company, a sponsor of this weekend’s homosexual “leather” street fair in San Francisco, has asked to have its logo removed from an advertising poster that has offended some Christians.”

Offended “some” Christians...

I suppose Miller decided it’s core market was more gays than it was Christians.

Miller is one of the brands of SABMiller, a brewing and hotel conglomerate that is based in London and trades on the London exchange. It’s largest shareholders (the owners) are the Altria Group (29%) aka Phillip Morris, the former owner of Miller, and Bevco Int’l (15%) a Houston-based importer and distributer of beer/wine/liquor.

Miller has been exposed. Too late to pretend that they are sorry.

Maybe they can paint their race car in rainbow colors. Is there a gay guy in the “Man Club”? What did they mean by “Tastes Great, Less Filling”?

why would anyone in their right mind drink Miller products anyway. The only product they brew that is worth a crap is Leine. I’ve been boycotting them since the decision to sponosor the illegal immagrant rallys earlier this year-well with te exception of a Leine every now and then.

“Good Lord, imagine, in a city named for St. Francis, that this extraordinary depravity occurs so regularly.”

You would think that the San Francissys would have learned something from the 1989 if not the 1906 earthquake!
