In Search of Four Loko

I am pro-choice on Four Loko. I want Four Loko to be safe, legal, and rare. The zealots among us wish to dictate what we can and can't put into our bodies. Keep your morals off my Four Loko! Read my article @ the American Spectator about my quest to drink the mythic and soon-to-be-extinct libation sensation.

It's MY body...

Used to be. Now, it's the government's body.

I admire your defense of civil liberties. I've been drinking a much stronger version of Four Loko for years: vodka and Red Bull.

That explains it then.

I drink Red Bull and vodka, as well, PMA. I initially dismissed it as a trend. But ever since I really, really tried it a few years back, it has been a part of my weekend rituals, for better or worse. In fact, one of the drawbacks in writing this piece was the fact that I had to omit Red Bull and vodka from my drinking diet the night I drank the Four Loko. Five Loko is way too Loko for me.

I find Red Bull and Vodka a great way to get through a Saturday night. However, in Canada, there's actually a disclaimer on the can...do not mix with alcohol! Ironic, and I'm still waiting to hear about the first nuisance lawsuit against a bar for serving it.

After having just one Four Loko, I can tell you that a vodka and redbull is a poor comparison. The Four Loko will knock you on your butt for about $2.79.

Good one, Dan.

Let's all remember that liberals are pro-choice about killing children and little else. When it comes to drinking alcholoic beverages (which are legal) mixed with caffeniated beverages (which are also legal) they aren't so pro-choice after all.

Don't they realize that someone decided to sell a product that people have been making themselves for years? Caffeine and alcohol are present in rum and coke, Jack and Coke, Red Bull and vodka, coffee and brandy.

Personally, I'm against choice when it means slaughtering innocent unborn children. But 4Loko? Knock yourself out, see if I care.

Hey, they were pro-choice on slavery, too.
