Bill Donohue comments on the latest developments in the Catholic League’s boycott of Guinness:

We have amassed over 7,000 email addresses from the Knights of Columbus, constituting over 1,500 councils across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Today, we are asking the Knights to join us in our boycott of Guinness.

We have two close by. Both have excellent food also. One even makes their own sausage. Blue Cat Pub in Moline and Iron Spike in Galesburg Ill.

Some U.S. microbrew companies make stout; this is a good opportunity to try them out while smacking Guinness for their unacceptable attitude.
