My only surprise is that MADD didn't waddle in to this debate to get themselves on the record against these drinks, too. Of course, a wonderful point is made by a spokesman for Big Alcohol:
And Anheuser-Busch vice president Francine Katz said caffeinated alcohol drinks "are nothing new. For years, adults have enjoyed rum and Coke, Irish coffee and liqueurs mixed with coffee."
"The way to fight illegal underage drinking is not to limit product choices for adults," Katz said. "Rather, the key is preventing youth access to alcohol."
It's a good thing IL AG Lisa Madigan has nothing better to do than worry about drinks combining caffeine and alcohol. There must be no more corruption in Chicago or Springfield!
